Season 4: #13 Chris Billam-Smith

Jan 12, 2022, 05:00 PM

Bournemouth's British, Commonwealth and European cruiserweight champion Chris Billam-Smith has big ideas and big ambitions. Trained by Shane McGuigan after a decent if not glittering amateur career, Billam-Smith has risen quickly in the pros.

He's become a Matchroom staple, twice boxing at Fight Camps, and he's already met men like Tommy McCarthy and Richard Riakporhe and he's sparred Mairis Briedis, David Haye, George Groves, Joshua Butasi, Lawrence Okolie, Daniel Dubois and many more.

He also hosts his own podcast, The Perfect Athlete Podcast, has a hunger for knowledge around sport, performance and recovery and he has a dream to bring big-time boxing to Bournemouth.
