Outspoken with White & Jordan
Up Front With Simon Jordan: Sir AP McCoy
This is Up Front with Simon Jordan. A new show brought to you by William Hill that pulls no punches and tells it EXACTLY like it is.
The term ‘GOAT’ is thrown around in the media but this week we are joined by a man who is undoubtedly the greatest of all time in his chosen discipline, Sir AP McCoy.
The winner of 4,358 races, AP joins the show to diagnose the mindset of a serial winner. There are certain characteristics that people like Michael Jordan, Serena Williams and Cristiano Ronaldo all share. They are willing to sacrifice everything in the pursuit of victory. But what causes a man to get back on the horse only 8 weeks after breaking his back? Simon delves into the mind of the 20 time champion jockey on this week’s Up Front.
