but boxing is also a sport that helps people overcome difficulties and find it in a strength and can prevent them from going off the rails. we talked to poor kurt and saskia belgian 2 people from munich for whom boxing has provided a new opportunity. buraq now 30 is from munich in the neighborhood he grew up in disputes were often resolved through violence. if you're online you can go to the one i mean you know i thought the sunshine in my skin there were a few of us in a few of them but it came down to a one on one with me and wouldn't you see it was only when i saw his blood on the ground that i actually began to enjoy it. a couple of older guys had contacts to hooligan groups the so-called 3rd half and i asked whether i could join
2:18 am
by the time i was 15 or 16 i was unable to control my aggression anymore there'd be a capo to arrange how many where and when then we'd meet and smack each other up and taking on people with a reputation in doing i mean it just felt wicked. out of time on politics. buraq has 27 criminal convictions and a struggle to get back on the straight and narrow. he's now a rare sight here at the 860 lions boxing club in munich unlike saskia bajan who hails from the same neighborhood as broke she's not had it easy either but has managed to take a different path. than theirs left the north i used to get really bad grades and didn't pass my school leaving qualifications. does being so i don't pull myself together. if you do a lot of sports including competitive sport it makes you tougher psychologically.

and that's one of the that's why i decided to keep at it regardless of what doesn't work out here does seem 10 attempts but i'd rather have that and fail. that's why i decided to study here and realize my dream women. and men and call me here. right now seem to be 2 very different individuals but i have a lot in common. and even went to the same kindergarten. years later they were the boxing club where the coach became a mental. or jr anyone would upload their shoulder and was.
2:20 am
just someone clear. alex who could is my coach but i call him my best friend and my helper. only turned 60 this year. he's constantly in contact with young people through the coaching and the aggression management he does. stand there and you can see how that rubs off on him. sometimes he behaves like some cool young guy he knows how to find the middle ground and he's strict with us but also really chilled. strength. in my school as you know it's primarily about not getting hit not necessarily hitting your opponent. stay out of trouble for my car but i do think ali is a real watcher he watches and then intervenes at the right moment he's dad to 80 people and i'm one of them. because i don't get enough to. take.
2:21 am
a lot of the things that come off my eyeballs you know this commitment is so important and he doesn't need power or some halo it's being there for you that matters it's something you can't really describe other was just brown it was a. lot of us and. you know what you're saying still i wish you the best of health this year this answer not only your. to come you know use them this way. also i noticed that last year was missing something also from talking to her if she needed a new family and good friends and that's something we can give people we are one big pride of lions here here. they give us the looks
2:22 am
like they're. the toughest setback was when my dad died in an accident i was still a child. when i was 5 or 6 i'd play tennis with him now and again. but afterwards i lost all interest in tennis and sport in general lines and what went on. i know exactly what day it was january 8th 2009 and since then i've been in love with the sport i think about it every single day. on. the phone and she didn't have enough confidence and we helped her to make the breakthrough. with both yourself. up where you thought here
2:23 am
saskia is a gem right now the kind you put in your pocket in savor when you're down. the housing crunch more humid. just like mcmahon songs on his knee when i was 21 my dating broke up and i didn't know what to do with myself and my aggression. when i. was. boxen find boxing at the club taught me what it really means you realize that the techniques you learn here are not meant for the streets. because it's just one click and this is a sports. fan but i used to think it was just about fist fighting for this kind but now i see it as a serious sports with. distance from booking applies to what from.
2:24 am
kill bill baka good to local i'll serve what these people are trying to do it and i see their aggression and tell them to do a bit of sparring but against someone good or not someone nobody. is going to come out on the right and that's all to get to know his limits but they'll always be someone better than you think. he was the truck. was not. as if i'd been the center of the staff if i only found out you'd been in a street brawl you'd be more afraid of a him then them. because he'd humiliate you in front of the whole group. of what you felt awkward it would be so hard to face ollie again. to be easily guy who protect syria and i mediate who gets into trouble.

very easy to get to the next coldish. alley knows exactly how to connect with these charges mentally that means talking tough if need be and with 2 that has brought progress. in 2016 ali organized a trip to ghana for his body in boxes a trick that was captured on camera in a documentary film called lionheart it. was no problem with him. the trip to ghana was a profound experience for me i'll never forget it. for a new my staff to comedy never would have thought of boxing in ghana and i couldn't even find it on a map of africa. and then with my broken english of about 2 words it was pretty funny and i thought.
2:26 am
i was in the church trying to get this to trickle. down. to. tossing certain of my own. eyes or what. his team trained with a group of local boxers l.h. a cool wanted them to see a different world in order to get a better appreciation of their own one and it paid off. saskia and direction can identify with the youngsters back home too and hope they can help them. live experienced a lot through boxing and i think it's really important to pass that on to others and i learned so much at boxing school back their technique and stamina. it's something i just have to share. and i need to stop it from kids are
2:27 am
a reflection of you and what you want them to become and i want the kids i deal with to really get ahead in life so instead of coaching pros i want to coach kids poor 1st minute boxes when you can that. it's been 4 years since the trip to ghana and boruc hasn't been seen at the club for ages he's even considered joining the french foreign legion. is that compatible with the principles he learns here. mr sloan let's enter the fray. and it. can descend on tyler moore a decent person at heart and it's the decent brokers you need to bring to the fore
2:28 am
40 radio or anybody else for the stuff about the foreign legion of i could smack you one. you know. when you're trying to go that is i think. he has managed to get poorer back into this proud proud of lions together with us give the prodigal son will be coaching kids on a regular basis. time will tell how poor at story continues but he did keep coming to the club after we stopped filming to. think of that since around me i always hear things like oh no saskia don't hit me to myself i then ask people if they've ever done any dog sing or do i know what it actually involves an onion and if they say no. then for me the conversation is over.
2:29 am
it looks like another name. but it's really the work of. the wad. the 11 year old just like the great master himself. and donates the money she reasons with her paintings to a good cause. with great mix as. if you're over. the next pontiff doubling all. the trouble ministration a composer crushing new sanctions on iran in a bid to topple the regime. but the strategy hasn't worked in the brain and people have to pay the players. or someone is the medical point of the sanctions and who is benefiting. embargo in the last century. in 45 minutes on t.w.
2:30 am
. the bassinets of that i don't need to see complete every available both for all the french and on the force i'm for the most recently that it's in the works with at least the bottom of the families at the last dragon those words as you called the hard to use and degree of books on. the books faster than a speeding bullet to find out why this untamed piece is burning rubber like a race car. more on that later in the show hello and welcome to another edition of your macs with me your host maggie lake here's a look at what else we've got coming up.
