    Funnily enough, Chuck Gardner actually beat Jimmy Young some months earlier.

    Gardner looked like the worst boxer ever in this match-up. He seemed a push-over by his record, but not this terrible. He must not have trained a day for the fight. I'm thinking Young, shot as he was, was paid to lose against Gardner.

    Scary KO, Bruno feinted him with a jab and threw a hook instead. Probably would have gotten him either way though the way Gardner was looking in there.
