Summary

CAUTION ADVISED - STRONG LANGUAGE.

Former professional boxer Frank Bruno speaks to the Telegraph’s Bryony Gordon in the seventh episode of the brand new series of Mad World, where she interviews guests about their mental health experiences. Having competed for over a decade, Frank's illustrious boxing career saw him win 40 off his 45 professional fights; but some of his biggest battles were to come from outside the ring. Frank opens up to Bryony about how it felt to suffer a mental breakdown so publicly, and the steps he now takes to ensure his wellbeing and happiness are a top priority.
