El Paso, Texas, native David “Nino” Rodriguez survived years of bullying before finding solace in sport and becoming a heavyweight boxing champion. Today, through his advocacy campaign, he talks to kids about bullying and how to keep going through the toughest of times.
“I didn’t take to boxing until I was about 13 or 14 years old,” David told The Epoch Times, “but I got into boxing when I was about six years old. I was bullied a lot as a kid.”
