Former IBA Cruiserweight Champion and WBO title challenger Bobby Gunn 17-3 {14 KO’s} was victorious in his return Saturday night against last hour replacement Elijah ****ens. ****ens retired on his stool after the first round where he nearly got knocked out of the ring by a short right hand. ****ens, 0-6 was not the choice opponent but Gunn felt liable to fight him after original opponent Antoine Barrett did not show up for the weigh in. Gunn exclaimed, “I understand a fight like this does nothing for me, but I sold over 400 tickets and I didn’t come to ******ia to go sight seeing! My cut man Mike Hopper came 700 miles and my assistant trainer Kyle White went 300 just to be with me in ******ia. I was the main event, helped sell out the venue, and would have let my friends, fans, and family down if I didn’t fight. This reminded me of the amateur days where you have no idea about your opponent and just have to get into the ring and fight. I didn’t know he was a southpaw and was unaware of his record but this is boxing and anything can happen”. [details]
