FIRST “BARE KNUCKLE” CHAMP SINCE JOHN L. SULLIVAN “NOT THE SHY TYPE”
San Francisco, CA– Although I am in the minority of boxing writers in many ways, the first being I won’t kiss anybody’s ass and write “fluff” pieces about powerful people and or their fighters. The second being, I am totally behind bare knuckle boxing! If the guys that who are so called “premier” writers in boxing, if they knew the difference between “a fish hook and a left hook,” and had they done their research, they’d tell you that the added padding of gloves adds to brain concussions, as determined by a five year study by the Nevada State Athletic Commission. The results showed that a little over 20% of boxers wearing 8 or 10 ounce gloves suffered concussions, (which are “brain bleeds”) while MMA fighters who fight with four ounce gloves, their concussion rate is a little less than 2%.
“BARE KNUCKLE” BOXING IS A HIT & IT IS HERE TO STAY!
With that being fact, I can’t believe the vast number of websites and news agencies that refused to cover the “Bare Knuckle” fight in which New Jersey’s Bobby Gunn won a fortnight ago in Arizona. I’ve heard some writers, imitating promoters and commissioners like trained parrots saying “bare Knuckle” boxing is barbaric, etc. When the truth of the matter is that “gloves” were meant to protect the hands foremost, and not the fighter’s overall health and well being.
BOBBY GUNN SHOOTS STRAIGHT & TALKS A GOOD GAME
Do you think that Wladimir Klitschko could stand up to “bare knuckle” boxing? I can hear you all, except for the Klitschko fanatics, laughing out loud! In addition to Bobby Gunn, Jeff “The Other” Mayweather opened the show and Matt “All Meat” Grizzle covered the MMA scene. In closing, in time, “Bare Knuckle” boxing will prove to be more exciting than gloved boxing, and that is what has the boxing establishment scared to death. In addition to running on the Sports Byline Broadcast Network, the Cable Radio Network and the Internet via audio, “Ring Talk” airs LIVE in video at Facebook.com/Ring TalkClick for “Ring Talk” With Bobby “Bare Knuckle” Gunn & Jeff Mayweather
