| Konecny vs Larbi For The WBO's Interim Title, April 5th
|
|
By Per Ake Persson Czech jr. middleweight contender Lukas Konecny, 47-3-0, will square off against Frenchman Salim Larbi, 17-1-1, for the WBO's interim jr. middleweight title on April 5 at the Vodova Arena in Brno, Czech Republic. SES will be promoting.
Konecny was all set to fight champion Zaurbek Baysangurov in Ukraine on March 10 - when early last week Baysangurov had to pull out from the scheduled fight with an injured back.
Prior to that, Konecny spent some time waiting for then champion Sergey Dzinziruk - as did Baysangurov, who first won the interim title before begin declared the full champion.
Lukas must be regarded as a strong favorite to beat the somewhat untested Larbi. Tags: Lukas Konecny  |

Konecny deserves a title shot, but putting him in with a French pastry ranked 106th by boxrec and calling it an interim title fight is silly. A warm-up, absolutely. A title fight, no |
