Hurricane Sebastian Sylvester will fight for the world middleweight title before the end of the year. WBA president Gilberto Mendoza confirmed in writing that the 27-year-old will take on the winner of Saturday´s meeting between Felix Sturm and Randy Griffin within the next 120 days. Should Sturm retain his title, the showdown with Sylvester, which has been highly anticipated by German boxing fans, would be official. “I have worked hard to get that chance,” Sylvester said. “Finally the time is right to fight for the title. I want to become world champion.” [details]

Good for Sebastien - he's a good fighter, and will have a chance against either Sturm or Griffin I reckon. -
I think Sturm may be afraid of him. Maybe not Sturm himself but his promoters after Sylvester had that vicious ko in the 12th round of his last fight.
Griffin gave Sturm all he could handle in this first fight. He doesn't have the flashiest record, but he can give Sturm fits.Comment
