Boxing Profile: Scott GammerBy Rhun Leeding October 24th, 2006 All Boxing ArticlesBritish Heavyweight Champion Keeps His Eyes On The Road To Success Within a week of his recent destruction of British Heavyweight title challenger Micky Steeds, Scott Gammer covered the next mile on his road to success, by passing his driving test. Now that his wheels are moving, and his first defence of the belt completed, the undefeated Gammer, 17-0-1, has set his sights on the mandatory challenger, and former World title challenger Danny Williams, 36-5, with a possible February date in the pipeline. Although his last appearance in the ring was in the lacklustre Battle of Britain against Matt Skelton, the defeat has left Williams with little hope of rebuilding his career without beginning with the British belt. The Pembroke Dock man is however uncomfortable in staying inactive until February, and Gammer is looking for another voluntary defence before Christmas to keep the rhythm of his confident and easy win over Micky Steeds going. "It is looking like that it will be in February against Danny Williams, so that is the big focus for us now," said Gammer. "Even so, if that is what it is going to be, then we are also going to look at getting another fight in December. "The last fight against Micky was a really comfortable one I thought, and there weren't any real problems that I'm worried about, and I just felt great afterwards.” After the exposure of a live Friday night appearance on Sky Sports, Gammer’s promoter Paul Boyce is now looking to get his fighter more appearances on television and bring the Gammer name into British homes. "Even though ticket sales down at Afan Lido were a little disappointing, it was great for Scott to get on television and for more people to see him fight," said Boyce. "The thing with fighting in Port Talbot was the fact that it was a long way from Pembroke, while in Carmarthen, we had it full of fans who were there to support Scott. "We haven't got anything nailed down and official yet, but it looks like it could be a Friday night in February, maybe February 9, but we might be able to get a fight for him in between. "In his last fight, he didn't put a foot wrong in my view, and I don't see how two of the judges could give Micky a round, he might have drawn one out of generosity, but Scott was in charge through the whole fight. "One good thing is that he proved that he can throw hard, damaging punches for twelve With two of the other British heavyweights meeting on December 9 in the Audley Harrison vs. Matt Skelton clash, Gammer could only see one winner, adding: "I just don't see Harrison being able to cope with a fighter in the way of Skelton, he should win that one."
