The Welsh insurance worker who's become one of the toughest names in wrestling after shock cancer diagnosis

In the valleys of Blaenau Gwent is a man who has become recognisable to many in the area.

Making his name on the weekends in rings across the country, Brendan White of Blaina has earned a reputation over the past few years as one of the toughest men on the UK's professional wrestling scene.

And while you might find him regularly slugging it out in front of hundreds of fans in packed-out venues, or jumping off 10 foot ladders in high-flying stunts, for Brendan, 33, he says it all pales in comparison to the hardest fight of his life in overcoming cancer.

Now as he prepares to open his own wrestling training academy in south Wales, the man known to his fans as Bronco is sharing his story in the hopes of inspiring others to chase their dreams.
