Jade Jones, Taekwondo Olympic champion, is boxing

The double Olympic champion of Taekwondo, Jade Jones, from Great Britain, transforms sports in boxing.

“Some days, I wake up and I think, am I absolutely crazy? Do you know what I mean?” Jones, 31, said in A BBC breakfast segment that was broadcast on Friday. “But to be honest, I like it. It is a new challenge for me and I am really prospered in it, excited, and I just felt that I was not finished yet. There is always a fire in me. But Taekwondo, I have done it for years and years. I have done the same cycle so many times. Obviously, I like taekwondo, and it is always a new love, And I love it. “

The BBC indicated that Jones plans to enter the “paid rows” of boxing.

Jones won the Taekwondo Olympic titles in 2012 and 2016, then lost its opening combinations in Tokyo and Paris while making auction to become the first person to win a third gold medal in sport.

“Taekwondo is purely feet, so I have never really used my hands,” she said. “So, 23 years of becoming Olympic champion, champion with my feet, and now I completely change it and I use my hands. Again, obviously, it makes the challenge even more difficult. But there are similarities, like leg game and obviously the fights. I know what it takes to be the best.”
