About this listen

Young boxer Brijhana Epperson is surprised with a visit from Chevelle Hallback. The two swap stories and advice.
Brijhana Epperson dreams big. Really big. Even though she is still quite small.  She is a USA Boxing national champion. She is in training to represent TEAM USA at the Olympics.  And she is also a ballerina, who has worked with the Alvin Ailey program and appeared in productions of the holiday classic Nutcracker.  She is small only in age.  She is just 12-years old.  And she is amazing.In this episode of The Making of Champions, Tonya Cole and Marquis Johns from Big Fight Weekend prepare to be blown away by Brijhana's accomplishments, but also by the breadth and depth of the partnership she has with her father Courtney--who is also her coach, her enabler and her best friend.
