In this thrilling episode, we delve into the life and legacy of Bobby Gunn, a formidable figure in the world of combat sports. Bobby's professional boxing career boasts 32 intense bouts, including clashes with legends like Roy Jones Jr. and Tomasz Adamek, achieving 23 wins, 7 losses, 1 draw, and 1 no contest. Beyond the traditional ring, Bobby holds an astonishing record of 73-0 in bare-knuckle boxing. He made history at BKFC 1, the first sanctioned bare-knuckle event in the U.S. since 1889, securing his legacy in this brutal sport. From desert outposts to Manhattan bars and even a Boston mobster's den with a caged lion, Bobby's journey is nothing short of cinematic. His encounters with Russian and Albanian mobs, and skirmishes with the Latin Kings, highlight the perils he faced outside the ring. Yet, at his core, Bobby is a devout Christian, a dedicated father, and a loving husband. Tune in as we explore the raw and riveting story of a man who fought his way through life with unyielding spirit and faith.
