Bout Summary
Gardner went to a knee midway through Round 4 from a left hand to the body. He remained on one knee until the count of seven. A followup left hand to the liver sent a grimacing Gardner down to a knee for a second time in the round. He again made it to his feet and was allowed to continue. Following the round and at the advice of the ringside doctor, the bout was ended.
