EBU super middleweight champ Karo Murat reportedly defends the title against Italian Lorenzo Di Giacomo, a former EU champ and EBU two-time challenger at middleweight, on May 30 at a site to be announced in Germany.

 

P 3 Boxing have been forced to cancel EU jr. welterweight ruler Giuseppe Lauri´s defense against Juho Tolppola on April 18 as the Finn have battling with illness for over a week. The show, set for the Kiisahall in Helsinki, still goes ahead with Russian jr. welterweight Dennis Shafikov and former EBU middleweight champ Amin Asikainen headlining. Also on the bill is Swedish heavyweight Attila Levin, Finnis heavyweight Jarno Rosberg and Norwegian jr lightweight Andreas Evensen.

 

Universum have added a third title fight to the show in Bremen May 2 as super middles Lukas Wilaschek and Dimitri Sartison clash for the vacant German title. It´s also an internal Spotlight Boxing eliminator. Sartison have looked pretty sharp since fighting WBA king Mikkel Kessler in June of last year and is a firm favorite to win in my eyes.

 

It´s official: it will be Maselino Masoe that challenges WBO super middle champ Karoly Balzsay on April 25 in Krefeld. The show is headlined by Felix Sturm defending the WBA crown against Japanese Koji Sato.
