Hop Hop’s Champ Documentary Series 

This powerful 7-part documentary series goes far beyond the boxing ring to tell the complete story of Iran “The Blade” Barkley. From his personal journey and the brutal environment of the South Bronx, to the Black Spades gang culture, the birth of hip-hop, the crack epidemic, and the corruption inside professional boxing — every chapter reveals the forces that shaped a world champion.
Most importantly, the series culminates in the story of his deep and transformative faith in Jesus Christ — the one thing that brought true victory after all the triumphs and tragedies.
Featuring exclusive interviews with celebrities, historians, and authors, Hip-Hop’s Champ is a raw, honest, and ultimately redemptive look at one man’s life and the culture that created him.
