Gunn to Attend “Knuckle” Movie Premier!

For Immediate Release

Hackensack, NJ (September 25, 2011) – Former IBA world cruiserweight champion Bobby “The Celtic Warrior” Gunn will make a special guest appearance at the premier party of “Knuckle” Friday, September 30 at the Irish Film Festival in New York City.

Gunn, who battled Tomasz Adamek and Enzo Maccarinelli, is globally recognized in the fight game for competing in both professional boxing matches along with organized bare knuckle fights. Gunn, a colorful Canadian based in New Jersey, was personally invited to the event by bare knuckle fighting legend and future opponent James Quinn.

“It’s a great honor to attend the premier,” said Gunn, who recently knocked out Richard Stewart inAmerica’s first sanctioned bare knuckle bout in more then 120 years. “A lot of Hollywood stars are confirmed guests, so to be sitting amongst them while they watch the movie will be incomparable to anything I’ve ever done.”

The film’s director is Ian Palmer and a mini-series on Irish bare knuckle fighting directed by Eastbound and Down star Danny McBride will air on HBO in the near future.

Gunn is currently working out the details for a 2012 fight against the aforementioned Quinn.
