Commonwealth Games Special: Cheavon Clarke

Alasdair Hooper hosts a Commonwealth Games Special with Team England boxer Cheavon Clarke.

Gold Coast 2018 will be Cheavon’s second Commonwealth Games after he represented Jamaica at Glasgow 2014. However, there is far more to the man than simply what happens in the ring.

Cheavon has experienced two near-death experiences and that has given him a completely different outlook on life.

In this one-on-one interview he tells us what life was like growing up in Jamaica and in Kent, how he found his way into boxing, driving an HGV for two years and playing Call of Duty with Usain Bolt.
