German light heavyweight Enrico Koelling (18-1) has been diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes and that is the type a person is born with or gets during childhood, writes Berliner Kurier.
However the 25-year old, promoted by Sauerland Event, has been living a normal life until recently when he all of a sudden lost a lot weight and had other problems. In the ring the problems were on display with a flat performance against Mirco Ricci when he lost the WBA I/C title.
Initially, Koelling thought it was all over with boxing but at the moment he's having second thoughts and will continue his career, and he does so with full support from Team Sauerland. Koelling is trained by Karsten Rover and when it comes to conditioning he has few superiors.
