Original Toronto Star caption: Over-the-hump night', Shawn O'Sullivan made a triumphant return to the ring last night, after an eight-month layoff due to an injured right hand, and he walked out of the ring with a unanimous decision over Cortez Treadwell. O' Sullivan described the bout as his over-the-hump night and said he made a conscious effort to protect his right hand. He also said there was some pain in the hand, which he injured in his most recent fight -- a loss to Simon Brown.
