By Jenna J – “On The Ropes” Boxing Radio returns this week with host Jenna J to talk about all the recent fights and news going on in the sport of boxing. In this episode I will cover the exciting HBO match between Daniel Geale and Darren Barker in which Barker had to survive a 6th round knock down on his road to winning a split decision and being crowned the new IBF middleweight champion. I will also cover the fight which shocked many boxing fans, Nathan Cleverly vs. Sergey Kovalev. The fight saw the highly touted Cleverly get dominated early and eventually get viciously stopped early in the 4th round. I will talk about the future of both men and what this means for the light heavyweightdivision. Later in the show I will preview some fights which are set to happen this upcoming Saturday.

The second guest is none other than world super middleweight champion Andre “S.O.G” Ward who has been out of the ring since his impressive win over Chad Dawson back in September of 2012.
