Brunson Takes Best Shot At History!
GoFightLive.tv to Broadcast
Saturday night, at the Soaring Eagle Casino in Mt. Pleasant, Michigan, twenty-three year-old Philadelphia middleweight knockout sensation – Tyrone “Young Gun” Brunson (18-0, 18 KO’s) will aim to break the world record for consecutive first-round knockouts to begin a career, when he takes on unheralded Michigan journeyman, Francis McKechnai (3-14, 3 KO’s).
Brunson tied the current record on June 8, 2007, with a technical knockout victory over Jaime Waru (18-25-1, 9 KO’s), though it wasn’t easy. Waru managed to withstand Brunson’s full-throttle attack until he finally succumb to Brunson’s heavy hands at 2:56…of the first round, of course!
Brunson now shares the world record with current WBA Super Featherweight champion Edwin Valero, at least until Saturday night!
According to Carlos Linas of Clip Boxing and Bluecap Promotions, “The Guinness Book of World Records will have people in attendance to see if Tyrone Brunson will make history.”
