One night in Atlantic City
This past Saturday, August 17th at Revel Resort, Atlantic City, New Jersey, a split site HBO broadcast was done featuring Nathan Cleverly (26-0, 12 KOs) vs Sergey Kovalev (21-0-1, 19 KOs) and Daniel Geale (29-1, 15 KOs) vs Darren Barker (25-1, 16 KOs) in the respective main events.
