You can catch the show live on Thursday, June 27, 2019, at Uncle Bobby’s Wings in Griffin, Georgia.

Four ropes, trash-talk and well-trained athletes are things that boxing and professional wrestling have in common. But there is more! “The Nature Boy” is most famously the nickname of legendary American pro wrestler Ric Flair, but it would also become the ring-moniker of former WBF World Light Welterweight Champion Homer Gibbins.

“Ric Flair is an icon wrestler here in the US, and I stole that name from him”, says Gibbins, who was born in Atlanta, Georgia in 1970. “I began boxing because of Wrestling, and I loved the way Flair would talk smack, so I thought it was fitting.”’ – BY: CLIVE BAUM worldboxingfederation.net

He embarked on a successful amateur campaign that saw him compile a 226-23 record, win fifteen Georgia State Golden Gloves titles, and eventually set him up for a professional career.

Between 1990 and 2007, he compiled a final professional record of 44-16, with 31 knockouts. Up until 2002 he was 42-5 (30).
