The True Champion’s Spirit: What Boxing Teaches Kidney Patients and Caregivers
Today’s episode draws on the grit and determination shown in the Canelo vs. Crawford championship boxing fight. While Crawford’s skills carried him far, his resilience—the ability to keep getting back up, to walk through setbacks, and to prepare for this moment—ultimately made the difference.
Connection to Kidney Journeys:
That same resilience mirrors the warrior spirit found in kidney patients and caregivers. Just like fighters in the ring, patients and caregivers face rounds of hardship, training, setbacks, and victories. The discipline, endurance, and heart required to keep moving forward against the odds make their fight so powerful.
