Gene Fulmer Returns to Ring Tonight in Salt Lake City
Gene Fulmer returns to the ring in Salt Lake City for a 10 round nontitle bout against Wit Greaves of Pittsburgh. Fulmer, former middleweight champion who beat Sugar Ray Robinson in 1957, seeks a rebound after his crown win. Greaves, from Edmonton and Pittsburgh, carries a strong 114-1 record and plans to dodge Fulmer’s power and land quick jabs to shake the champ. The bout may influence potential title discussions as plans with Sugar Ray Robinson linger and television coverage is arranged.
