Robert Ivers attended one of the few high schools (Tucson High 1950-1953) that offered a wide range of theatre classes including Stagecraft, Make-Up, Lighting, History of the Theatre and Acting. After appearing in all the high school productions and some Tucson Little Theatre shows, Ivers was offered scholarships to Pasadena Playhouse and the University of Arizona. A short stint at Pasadena, after learning he couldn't get on stage until his second year, was enough, and he enrolled at the University of Arizona, where he began appearing in roles during his first year.
Tucson has been the host for many movie companies and, during his college days, Ivers was able to secure a few "uncredited" screen roles. During this same time, the Tucson Winter Stock Company started its operation, which proved to be the springboard for Ivers' move to Hollywood. In 1954, Milt Lewis, a talent scout for Paramount Pictures, saw Ivers in Stalag 17 (1953), at the Sartu Theatre in Hollywood and tried to get Paramount to sign him. They didn't. In 1955, Lewis saw Ivers in a production of "Rainmaker" at the University of Arizona and again failed to get the studio to sign him. It was a year later, 1956, when Jane (Loew) Sharples saw Bob in the lead in "Tea and Sympathy", a Tucson Winter Stock Company production (with Harvey Korman, a resident stock player), and sent him to her father, Arthur Loew, Sr., president of MGM. Ms. Loew's brother, Arthur M. Loew Jr., a producer, and her cousin, Stewart Stern, a screenwriter, helped Ivers prepare for audition interviews with MGM and Paramount executives. This time, Paramount Studios signed him.- Writer

By the time Gavilan had his first fight in the U.S. his record was an impressive 25 wins, two losses and one draw, and he increased that record to 26 wins by knocking out Johnny Ryan in the fifth round in New York City. Thereafter he split his time between the U.S. East Coast and Cuba, but in 1948 decided to stay in the U.S. Gavilan fought some of the best welterweight boxers in the sport, beating fighters like former world champ Ike Williams, Tommy Bell and Tony Pellone (although he lost a bout to Sugar Ray Robinson).
He finally took the welterweight title in 1951 when he beat Johnny Saxton. He fought off several challengers, including such tough fighters as Chuck Davey and Carmen Basilio. In 1954 he went up to the Middleweight category, and fought a title bout with Bobo Olson, but lost. His bad luck continued when he went back to the welterweight class but lost the title in a 15-round decision to Johnny Saxton. His career after that was a series of rises and falls, and he retired in 1958. He had a career record of 106 wins--27 by knockout--30 losses and six draws, and had the distinction of being one of the few professional boxers who went through his entire career without ever having been knocked out or even knocked down. He was inducted into the Boxing Hall of Fame in 1966.
