WBA Flyweight Female champion Suzi Kentikian (32-2, 16 KOs) successfully defended her regalia for the first time with a convincing unanimous decision over 41-year old former champion Simona Galassi (19-3-1, 4 KOs) in a scheduled ten-rounder. Kentikian, 26, was much more aggressive but the Italian fighter was in the fight for all ten rounds, showing nice jab and overall skills. Official scores were announced in German but a half-point scoring system, which was a minor newsmaker beforehand, was in effect and all three judges ended their calculations with "comma five" cards in Kentikian's favour. Using the WBA's half-point scoring system, the scores were 98.5 to 94, 99 to 91.5 and 97 to 95.5.

Light middleweight Maurice Weber (19-1, 7 KOs) was lucky to be awarded with a gift second-round TKO over durable journeyman Wladimir Borovskiy (21-55-2, 10 KOs) of Ukraine. Weber was better in every department from the opening bell but his foe was in no danger of being hurt badly at any point of the fight. However, the Ukrainian's corner has unexpectedly thrown in a towel after just several sharp but not powerful punches midst into the second round. Borovskiy was quite disappointed with this stoppage, showing his will to continue.

--------------------

Hard-hitting Armenian Arman Torosyan (10-0-1, 8 KOs) easily annihilated unheralded Belarussian Denis Makar (4-19-1, 3 KOs) in three one-sided rounds. Makar was dropped once in the first, once in the second and twice in the thrid round - all times after painful left hooks to the body. Makar's camp stopped the bout immediately after the third round. It was just the fourth time the Belarussian was stoppe dinside the road. Torosyan, 30, looks to be a dangerous hitter, having scored a TKO 7 win over 27-2 Reda Zam Zam earlier this year.

--------------------

WBA #12 light heavyweight Konni Konrad (20-1, 10 KOs) of Montenegro (also known as Mevludin Cokovic) got a dominating fifth-round stoppage of the Cameroonian Leo Tchula (9-5, 8 KOs). Konrad, 28, was delivering better quality punches in two-way exchanges to repeatedly hurt the African fighter up until the stoppage. Konrad's only loss came against then-WBO super middleweight champion Denis Iknin via a close decision in May 2006.
