On June 16th 2006 after 16 professional fights undefeated, he earned the right to challenge Mark Krence for the British Heavyweight Title, Gammer won in the 9th round via TKO.
In his first defence of the title on the 13th October 2006 he defeated Micky Steeds by a unanimous points decision. Steeds was brought in as a replacement for Danny Williams who was the mandatory challenger for the British Heavyweight Championship at the time, however he pulled out of the fight due to the date coinciding with Ramadan.
A second title defence against Williams was originally scheduled for 9th February 2007, however the fight was re-arranged due to Williams' defeat by Audley Harrison on the 9th December 2006. Gammer finally fought Williams on the 2nd of March 2007 at the Neath Sports Centre, Glamorgan. Williams won the bout by 9th round KO, giving Gammer his first ever defeat as a professional.[1]
