The former boxing contender made an impressive return to the ring in January 2023 after an 18-month hiatus, despite suffering a loss to Salt Papi. Fast forward to Misfits Boxing 16, held at the James L. Knight Center in Miami, where the fighter known as Boss showcased a remarkable improvement. From the opening bell, Boss dominated his opponent, Temper, with a controlled and calculated performance. His dominance was so evident that Temper eventually threw in the towel during the second round, signaling his submission. This marked a significant step forward for Boss, signaling his resurgence in the boxing world.
For the young man Brueckner, who had no more fowl to clutch after twenty long years of flight, the game had been a do-or-die situation. People anticipated that maybe, as the show played out, Bruckner would at least be able to recapture his former champion spirit. From the beginning of the fight, Brueckner controlled the action and used smart tactics to put Temper on the defensive. He had not been in the ring for a long, which indicated that his punches had more power and he had good synchronization.

The first round of the battle gave both participants a sense of triumph because they both threw and connected with solid blows. Nevertheless, Bruckner first demonstrated his superiority in the second round. Then, brandishing a revolver, he turned hostile toward Temper and started robbing him while also punching him multiple times. After landing a powerful short hook on Temper that caused him to tumble to the canvas, Bruckner emerged victorious in the bout. When Temper struggled to stand and resume fighting beyond the bell because he had not responded to the referee’s count, the spectators leaped to their feet in celebration.
Recognizing that this was the last stretch of the game, Bruckner hurried to extend the lead. That came in viciously, and Temper felt the sting of the punch once again as he managed to make the count and advance once more. At 2:52 in the second round, the referee halted the bout because he believed differently. Bruckner told this story to demonstrate that he is a contender for the Misfits Cruiserweight title in addition to being back.
Road to the cruiserweight title
Brueckner advanced to the Misfits cruiserweight title battle semifinals thanks to his victory. The tournament, which features some of the most talked-about fighters in the sport, is a great chance for Brueckner to solidify his place in the running, but he faces a difficult road ahead because he may have to take on the brilliant former NFL All-Pro Le’Veon Bell.
With a taste of success in his mouth, Bruckner followed the bell into the ring, preparing for the difficult meeting. Hating one other, they had traded tense and short words, which supported rumors that the two players were rivals going into the championship match. Bell also hopes to demonstrate his boxing prowess after defeating Tristan Hamm in the tournament’s quarterfinals in May and moving on to the semifinals. The match between Brueckner and Bell might be among the most exciting in Misfits wrestling history if both competitors continue their winning ways.
