 In an effort to help raise donations for the Mississauga hospital, Hounds rookie Joseph Gainer flew out to Saskatoon for a charity boxing match with Canadian Football League (CFL) club Saskatchewan Roughriders mascot, Gainer the Gopher. The trash talk had been building up for a while, as Gainer the Gopher accused Joseph Gainer of stealing his name, while the latter accused Gainer the Gopher of declaring 6 more weeks of winter.

 

J Gainer showed up decked out in tiger stripes, an ode to his hometown CFL team, the Hamilton Tiger Cats. Gainer G simply wore his favourite green Roughriders jersey. After 3 rounds in which both fighters were put down multiple times, the decision went to the judges. The all Saskatoon judges (yes, all Saskatoon judges, definitely no bias there) declared Gainer G the split decision winner, scoring the fight 10-8, 10-9, 10-9 for Gainer G in round 1, 10-8, 10-8, 10-9 for J Gainer in round 2, with Gainer taking the decisive round 3 match 10-9, 10-9, 10-9.

 

There have been no bigger controversies in the professional athlete vs club mascot boxing match since Gritty’s split decision loss to Sidney Crosby in the much-watched Hostilities in Philly event. With the contentious ending to the Scuffle in Saskatoon, both Gainers have already agreed to a rematch, scheduled for some time next month. Fight promoter Dana White has agreed to lead the effort, with a rumor that the fight while head south to Las Vegas. We can only wait with excitement for Gainer vs Gainer round 2. The fight raised $12 000 for the Mississauga hospital.\
