Hi,
My name is Erion Mati. I am a journalist from Montenegro and currently I am making research on boxer Kreshnick Qato from Albania.
In Albanian TV and various media it has been reported that European and World Champion in Super middleweight,Kreshnick Qato beat UK heavyweight boxer Peter Haymer. I found this claim very strange.
On boxrec.com I found that Cato's World Rank is #70 in Super Middleweight while Haymer is ranked #44 in the world in Light Heavyweight.
I have searched a lot to find a confirmation of this fight.
Here is one of many available links online referring to this fight: http://www.albanianmail.co.uk/sofra/...&start_from=10
Here is the relevant quote from this article in Albanian:
Translation into English : British magazine Destiny describes Qato. ... Qato is the main attraction, and his career is explained by the well-known English journalist Joe Pyle. "Qato is the greatest Albanian boxers of all time fighting for Albania. Technical and intelligent, with an exceptional punch, he is the symbol of Albanian boxing. ... " The Albanian beat in a degrading way two years ago heavyweight boxer Peter Raymer. From him I can expect everything" - the British journalist says.
The article is posted online 14th of June 2005. This means the supposed fight has taken place in 2003.
What is Destiny, I can't find anything online. And how come I come in touch with Joe Pyle I would like to have confirmed from him.
Please post if you know anything or would like to comment.

''Qato ėshtė boksieri mė i madh shqiptar i tė gjitha kohėrave qė ka luajtur pėr Shqipėrinė. Teknik dhe inteligjent, me njė goditje tė vecantė, ai ėshtė simbol i boksit shqiptar''. ... ''Shqiptari mundi keqazi dy vjet mė parė boksierin e peshės sė rėndė Peter Haymer. Nga ai mund tė presėsh gjithshka''- thotė gazetari britanik
