    I just saw on Boxrec that former WBA featherweight champion, Derrick "Smoke" Gainer is fighting for the first time in almost 10 years. Gainer, who handed Freddie Norwood his first loss to take the belt, is on a April 23rd card taking place in the boxing-crazed town of Gadsden, Alabama. His opponent is the always rugged TBA. Should be a good scrap.

    Very true. He always the first name mentioned but when push comes to shove no one is man enough to get in the ring with him.

    Gainer must be about 50 years old now.
