Summary
In this powerful episode of the WABC Show , we sit down with current Heavyweight Wheelchair Boxing Champion Jody Bennet , alongside WABC Founder Collin and CFO Terry , for an inside look at the momentum building behind the World Adaptive Boxing Council. Joining us from the UK, Collin — a former semi-pro rugby player — shares the vision that sparked the creation of WABC and how adaptive boxing is carving out its rightful place on the global stage. Terry, a former Paralympian, brings his elite-level experience to the conversation as he discusses the current state of the organization, what legitimacy and structure mean for adaptive combat sports, and previews a major boxing event coming this fall that promises to elevate wheelchair boxing to new heights. Champion Jody Bennet speaks candidly about representing the sport at the highest level, the hunger among athletes worldwide, and the growing push to see wheelchair boxing included in the Paralympic Games. The trio dives into the future of adaptive boxing, the pathway to international recognition, and what it will take to build a sustainable competitive platform for athletes. Most importantly, they open the door to the next generation. If you’re interested in adaptive sports or think you have what it takes to step into the ring, Jody shares how to get connected, receive guidance, and even try out for the WABC boxing team. This episode is about more than sport — it’s about access, opportunity, and building a movement. Collin Kent-Facebook https://gofund.me/fe973e47 Jody Bennet- Facebook Aka_captain_amazing-IG
