Inaccurate story on boxing recoerd.

Post by jeffholcomb »

I boxed Bobby Gunn on june 2, 2005. The fight was stopped due to an injury. The bio on the records is nothing more than a lie. How may I get it removed from the record?

I also fought an unlicensed fight that shows on my record, how may i get it removed also?

The write-up of the Bobby Gunn fight has been deleted, thanks for bringing that to our attention. Regarding unlicensed bouts, we do list them but add the comment that it was unlicensed. Are you referring to another fight than your 1992 bout in Finland?

BoxRec reflects the record listed in the "Official" FightTax record book.
BTW; on Friday, 06/03/05 Chip Cirillo; Nashville Tennesean Staff Writer wrote;
"Canada's Bobby Gunn won the World Boxing Empire cruiserweight championship with a technical knockout of Jeff Holcomb 41 seconds into the fifth round. Holcomb was bleeding badly from cuts to the mouth, nose and left eye."

I was referring to the Oct 19, 2002 bout. I can send you a copy of my license that expired before that bout and my next license which was not aquired by me until months after that bout. It was an exhibition bout. You know how Tennessee used to be. Thanks for your response.

The unliscensed bout was in Kingsport Tn, Thanks.
This is Jeff Holcomb, neither Bobby Gunn or his camp appeard to have wrote the atricle. I (and my manager), wanted it removed because it was inaccurate and somewhat defamatory. My statements or my managers statements were not intended to be negative toward Mr. Gunn, only to the author of the article. It seemed to be a very unprofessional as well as an inaccurate account of the fight. Mr.Gunn is a fighter just as I am, and none of us like to have falsehoods written about us. I am only concerned about the writers inaccurate depiction of what happened, I hope this clears up any misdirected intent about why I made this post, thank you.
