Monty Betham played 101 games for the Warriors and nine tests for the Kiwis before retiring from rugby league at the age of 28 to become a professional boxer like his father.
He won eight of his nine fights, including a bout with Shane Cameron at The Fight for Life, before retiring from the fight game in 2016 after a health scare caused by a brain bleed.
In this episode we talk about life after sport, Monty's success in the business world and his transition to punditry, his relationship with his father and reflections on a difficult childhood, why the NRL voted him the scariest player in the early 2000s, why he took the Shane Cameron fight at Fight For LIfe - when no rugby player wanted to fight him and why he walked away from rugby league.
