IBF Middleweight Champion Sebastian Sylvester (33-3 16 KOs) and Mahir Oral (28-2, 11 KOs) participated in a public work-out in Rostock, Germany today. The Hurricane makes a third defence of his title on Saturday night. “After training for 14 weeks, I am more than ready for Oral,” said Sylvester. “I know that this will not be an easy fight, so I am prepared for 12 hard rounds. I will pass the Oral test and I will defend my title.”
Oral, who was stopped by then-IBF champ King Arthur back in June 2009, said he has learned from his first world title fight. “I am highly motivated and I am keen to win the title,” he said. “This is my second chance to become world champion and I will make the most of it.”
