Bobby Gunn to Fight for Vacant NABA Cruiserweight Championship against Brad Gregory!
Press Release
HACKENSACK, NJ – On February 25, Bobby "The Celtic Warrior" Gunn will attempt to win his 7th title belt as well as advance himself in the world Cruiserweight rankings.
Gunn, the current WBC USNBC champion, will now be fighting for the vacant WBA NABA Cruiserweight crown. A victory could help him surpass other credible contenders while moving him one step closer to another fight with an elite 200 lb fighter. In Gunn's way is Brad Gregory 11-2 (9 KO's), a Kansas native whose two losses were against much bigger and stronger opponents.
Gunn is excited about the prospectus of winning another title but knows he must be at his best in order to do so.
"I know Gregory has been fighting as a heavyweight, so I have been sparring with 6'7 260 lb (38-0 contender) Faruq Saleem, who is pushing me to the max" said Gunn, who resides in Northern New Jersey. "I feel great and have the energy of a 15 year old kid who just guzzled a Red Bull. My trainers Aroz "Terrific" Gist and Tommy Brooks are two of the best in boxing, so I am not only feeling like a champion but am training like one too", said the former WBO title challenger.
Tickets can be ordered by calling 201-741-4994, 610-291-0806 or going to www.dignityboxing.com.
