Five rising German and Danish prospects and two ring-worn veterans continued to pile up victories after an event of professional boxing, organized by Nisse Sauerland, a young promoter of a powerful Sauerland clan, in Herning, Denmark.
2009 Milano world champion Jack Culcay-Keth (9-0, 5 KOs) didn’t experience any problems in almost a shutout win over Dee Mitchell (9-15-1, 2 KOs) over ten rounds. Scores were 100-90 (twice) and 99-91 – for Keth.
Light welterweights Kasper Bruun (12-0, 3 KOs) and Kim Poulsen (19-1, 5 KOs) were successful either after eight-round unanimous decisions over Almin Kovacevic (10-9-1, 4 KOs) and Jay Morris (14-20-2, 4 KOs) accordingly. Scores were: 79-72 (twice) and 78-73 – for Bruun, and 78-74 (twice) and 79-73 – for Poulsen.
Heavily tattoed middleweight banger Patrick Nielsen (11-0, 6 KOs) was unable to stop Farouk Dakou (12-2, 7 KOs) of Uganda, while his cruiserweight brother Mikki Nielsen (1-0, 1 KO) made a successful pro debut after the first-round stoppage of Latvian Valerijs Rogozins (1-5).
Veteran Rudy Markussen (36-2, 23 KOs) needed just 179 seconds to wipe out previously unstoppable Belgian Michel Recloux (19-12-2, 8 KOs), while another veteran Christian Bladt (38-11-2, 12 KOs) stopped Belarussian Alexey Volchan (17-12-2, 10 KOs) after the sixth round.

Azeri Agaly Alyshev (16-5-2, 13 KOs) outpointed Georgian Nugzar Margvelashvili (21-12, 9 KOs) over twelve close rounds to get a vacant EBA lightweight title at Olympic Palace in Baku, Azerbaijan. Scores were unanimous in favour of the self-promoted fighter: 115-113 (Juan Manuel Garcia Reyes), 117-112 (Marik Dzhangutinov) and 118-110 (Muslim Biarslanov).
