There are a lot of factors that go into greatness, many of which are not obvious. As the Olympics come to a close, we revisit a 2018 episode in which top athletes from a variety of sports tell us how they made it, and what they sacrificed. SOURCES:Lance Armstrong, former professional cyclist.David Canton, director of African American studies and professor of history at the University of Florida.David Epstein, science journalist and author.Domonique Foxworth, former professional football player.Justin Humphries, former professional baseball player.Andre Ingram, professional basketball player.Shawn Johnson, former professional gymnast and Olympian.Steve Levitt, professor of economics at the University of Chicago.Simone Manuel, professional swimmer and Olympian.Brandon McCarthy, former professional baseball player.Mike McGlinchey, offensive tackle for the Denver Broncos.Daryl Morey, president of basketball operations of the Philadelphia 76ers.Lauren Murphy, professional mixed martial artist.Kim Ng, advisor with Athletes Unlimited Pro Softball, former general manager of the Miami Marlins.JJ Redick, head coach for the Los Angeles Lakers.Mikaela Shiffrin, professional alpine ski racer and Olympian.Mark Teixeira, former professional baseball player.Sudhir Venkatesh, professor of sociology at Columbia University.Kerri Walsh-Jennings, professional beach volleyball player and Olympian. RESOURCES:"Compromising Talent: Issues in Identifying and Selecting Talent in Sport," by Joseph Baker, Jörg Schorer, and Nick Wattie (Quest, 2017)."Practice and Play in the Development of German Top-Level Professional Football Players," by Manuel Hornig, Friedhelm Aust, and Arne Güllich (European Journal of Sport Science, 2016).The Sports Gene, by David Epstein (2013)."The Effect of Deliberate Play on Tactical Performance in Basketball," by Pablo Greco, Daniel Memmert, and Juan Carlos Pérez Morales (Perceptual and Motor Skills, 2010). EXTRAS:"The Hidden Side of Sports," series by Freakonomics Radio (2018).“How to Become Great at Just About Anything” Freakonomics Radio (2016).

With all the recent controversy and media coverage surrounding the Irish squad selection for the final Olympic qualifiers - it was going to take something special to drown out that noise. That something special came in record form - Kellie Harringon, Michaela Walsh, Aoife O'Rourke & Aidan Walsh are double Olympians, Dean Clancy, Jude Gallagaher, Jack Marley, Jennifer Lehane, Grainne Walsh & Daina Moorehouse qualifying. A record 10 qualifiers.It wasn't that long ago Brandon McCarthy was on course to be part of that Olympic dream - but tonight he looks to go 2-0 as a pro in Florida.in Association with

Brandon McCarthy is a Kilkenny boxer that had a fantastic amateur career. He won an amazing 16 Irish national titles from Boy 1 all the way to Elite level. He also represented Ireland at multiple European and World championships and won a silver medal at the European schoolboy championships in Russia. His aim was to reach this years Olympic Games in Paris, but an eye injury ended this dream. He has now moved across to the professional scene and has won his first pro contest back in March. He is wanting to stay very active and move into title contention soon. Something tells me the future is very bright for Brandon.

This week on The Rocky Road we sat down for a chat with rising stars Paul Loonam and Brandon McCarthy at UNIT 3 in Naas. Friends since their early days in Ireland camps, they've gone pro and represent the new batch of Irish talent in the paid ranks. Both had to face up to their disappointment at not making it to the Paris 2024 Olympic Games - with that hitting them in slightly different ways - but there's a new goal ahead. Loonam will make his debut in Dublin in May on a JB Promotions card, while McCarthy got up and running with a win in San Francisco on St Patrick's weekend. From Offaly and Kilkenny respectively, not exactly hotbeds of professional boxing, they've a great chance to make their mark. As well as preparing for his first outing, Loonam's a new dad to Gianni, and McCarthy looks to have taken on a new family member as well as he sets up camp with previous guest of The Rocky Road, Tommy Hyde, in Los Angeles. He tells us about sparring the Mexicans and picking up little tricks - some on the borderline of acceptability - with Loonam discussing his decision to set up shop under Niall Barrett in Kildare. Two exciting prospects, they'll go far - and sound like they're loving it so far. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
