According to several web sites... Gene Fullmer fought "Buster" Keyser giving Fullmer a title shot, just about six months before Fullmer won the Middle Weight Title from Sugar Ray Robinson..
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_Fullmer
"Fullmer won the world middleweight championship on January 2, 1957, when he upset the legendary Sugar Ray Robinson by soundly winning a unanimous 15-round decision. He won this by beating Buster Keyser in June to advance and fight Sugar Ray"
Kenneth "Buster" Keyser fought Fullmer in June of of 1956 likely in Hawaii. I believe the fight went the distance with Keyser knocking Fullmer down in the early rounds and Fullmer winning by a decision. I can't find a record of this match on BoxRec or anywhere other than a few web sites. I can't find any records on Buster Keyser, however I have met both Fullmer and Keyser and have personal information that the fight occurred. Is there anyway to find this fight information? I would like to find the record, clippings, audio or any information anyone could help with!

Re: Missing Records...
I'm not sure if you entered that garbage at Wikipedia yourself, but you sure as hell know that bout didn't happen.
Re: Missing Records...
Actually Matt....no actually I didn't.... Buster Keyser was a Navy fighter and at some point, somehow ended up fighting Fullmer in Hawaii. I'm just trying to determine if other than a few sites I can find documentation.
Re: Missing Records...
We have entered all the results from Hawaii during that era, so this bout is a figment of your imagination. Also there is a Buster Kezar in the database. Please refer us to these "other sites" you speak of.
