Super Bantam Aussie Boxer Vegas Larfield joins us for a yarn. Vegas' story on how he begun his boxing career is quite the interesting yarn as it revolved around a major decision to stop playing NRL and pursue having a swing in the ring. We discuss his style and approach to his opponents, how he took up one of his first professional fights on a major world card on short notice and run through what he aims to achieve in his boxing career in the super bantam division. We wish the best for this legend and appreciate him making the trip for the yarn. Enjoy legends!

Alpha Blokes Podcast

Ep. 266 - Vegas Larfield

Alpha Blokes is brought to you by a couple of mates who love all things outdoors, sinking tins, cooking up a storm, talking sh!t and having a laugh. The boys are coming in hot to promote having a crack and build a community that loves life, deleting Headnoise one laugh at a time. Jump on board and listen to the lads talk to different blokes (and a few non blokes) about their stories. Whether it be starting a new business, overcoming adversity or just a ripper tale that deserves being told. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for...
