The Corner Podcast

"The Corner" is a boxing, mixed martial arts and pro wrestling podcast from a Hip Hop generation's perspective. Hosted by two established journalists – Andreas Hale (Sporting News) and Kel Dansby (ESPN) – "The Corner" offers a refreshing and oftentimes humorous take on the combat sports world that combines the knowledge of a die hard pundit while keeping things accessible as they bridge the gap between the hip hop community and these sports.
