Joe Bugner, England, 2-0-0 vs. Bert Gilroy, Scotland, 6-1-0 (3)

March 29, 1980 - Kelvin Hall, Glasgow, Scotland. Gilroy takes command of the ring in the 1st round and traps Bugner on the ropes. Bugner responds with a strong round of his own in the 2nd. The 3rd round is a free-for-all, as the crowd stands and shows its appreciation. Gilroy walks into a punch that he doesn’t see coming and pays the price by ending up on his back in the 4th. Gilroy misses a shot to the body and is countered with a right cross that puts him down for the 2nd time in the fight during the 5th round. Bugner seems to be in control of the fight when Gilroy lands a wicked hook that puts Bugner down in the 7th. We are getting a great fight for the price of admission tonight! I guess Bugner has fully recovered from the last round, because he lands a combination that puts Gilroy down again in the 8th! The last two rounds are back and forth action as the potential fight of the year candidate goes to the scorecards.
