“He’s the Champ, where ever he wants to fight I’ll go. If he gives me a shot at it I’ll be happy to go to Wales”
My special guest is Nathaniel “Cheeky” May. Nathaniel is a rising star of Australian boxing and is currently the IBF Pan Pacific Featherweight Champion and WBO Asia Pacific Champion, which gives him a ranking of World number 7 in the IBF. He has an impressive 19-1 (11 KO’s) record and was ultra-impressive on the recent Jeff Horn World Title fight night.
You will learn plenty from Nathaniel May in episode 54 of the Talking with TK Podcast.
