BOSTON (March 27, 2005) – This week’s New England Ringside Radio Show takes a bite of reality, boxing-wise, with special guests Jackie Kallen, Frank
Stallone and WBC cruiserweight champion Wayne “Big Truck” Braithwaite Thursday night (6-8 PM) on WWZN 1510 The Zone.
The two-hour New England Ringside Boxing Radio Show – hosted by Ted Bodenrader, Anthony Pepe, Rick Brutti and Joe Bills — airs every Thursday night between 6-8 pm (ET) on Boston’s Boxing Station, The Zone (1510 AM), and also may be heard live on the Internet by going to www.newenglandringside.com.
Kallen, of course, had a movie made about her life in boxing, Against The Ropes, starring Meg Ryan. Jackie also is involved in The Contender. She’ll discuss the reality series, what it was like managing James Toney, and her newest client, Matt “Sharp Shooter” Remillard, who makes his pro debut Friday in New Haven.
Sly’s brother, Frank, also talks about “The Contender,” especially New England’s two representatives in the final 16, Peter Manfredo, Jr. and Jeff “Hellraza” Fraza.
Last, but not least, is Braithwaite. He’ll break down his unification fight Saturday night on Showtime versus WBA title-holder Marc Mormeck in Worcester, the state of the cruiserweight division, and his plan to move-up
to the heavyweight ranks.
