Mads Larsen is looking for his 51st win in his 53rd fight when he takes on Italy´s Roberto Cocco in Zurich on December 20. The Golden Boy knows that a good performance will keep alive his chances of fighting for the world title soon. It would be his second world title fight after dropping a close – and controversial – points decision against then-WBA and IBF super middleweight champion Sven Ottke back in September 2003. Sauerland Event managing director Chris Meyer confirmed he has been in negotiations with IBF champion Lucian Bute to set up a title clash for the 35-year-old Dane, but a final deal has yet to be reached. Therefore it is crucial for Larsen to stay in shape, and in order to do so, he will step into the ring against Cocco.
