KIEL, GERMANY (March 14, 2009) - Former heavyweight champion "Relentless" Lamon Brewster cruised his way to an eight-round unanimous decision victory over Michael Sprott at Ostseehalle in Kiel, Germany. Judges Ingo Barrabas and Norbert Duernberger scored the fight 78-73, while Wilhelm Vogl saw the fight 79-73.

Brewster, now 35-4 (30 knockouts), boxed effectively throughout, backing up Sprott with his sheer aggressive nature and powerful left jab. At the end of the third round Brewster landed the most significant punch of the fight, a hard left hook following a grazing right hand that resulted in the only knockdown of the match. Sprott was hurt by the punch but the bell saved him from further damage.

The ex-British champion, 31-13 (16 knockouts), showed determination and grit as he survived Brewster's explosive attacks. Still it was not enough as Brewster's superior will and strength deterred Sprott from attempting anything too ambitious.

Brewster, the NABA heavyweight champion and current #11 ranked contender by the WBA, intends to springboard back into the world title picture with the win. He hopes to lure IBF/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko into a rubber match in the near future. In their first match, Brewster overcame 13 months of inactivity to knock the Ukrainian out in five rounds in 2004. Brewster lost the rematch following 15 months of inactivity due to an eye injury.

Brewster is a native of Indianapolis, IN but resides in Los Angeles, CA. He is currently trained by Shadeed Saluki. This was Brewster's first fight with German-based promoter Sauerland Event, whom also promote IBF middleweight champion Arthur Abraham and WBA heavyweight champion Nicolai Valuev.

edit: I see he weighed in at 234 for this fight on boxrec and that's less than the 237 he did on his last fight but still alot more than the 220's he weighed in all his other spectacular fights

I asked him about that a few times, he says he's getting his "grown man strength," meaning that his body is maturing. He started weight-lifting a few years back which accounts for his arms gaining size. He's never had a six-pack so to speak but he's essentially in the same amount of conditioning that he had been.

Thanks Joe.

We're looking at a number of opponents now. We were supposed to fight Andrey Fedosov, an 18-1 (14 knockouts) fighter with a good amateur background. He fell out with the flu so we fought Sprott instead.

Pretty much anyone coming to fight will suffice. I just want to see Lamon in the ring 3-4 times this year against good opposition. He was in great shape last night and let his hands go in combination. He needs to keep up the momentum.

[El Alacrán]

Brewster would be a good step up for David Haye

[joe strong]

staying active has sometimes been a problem for lamon so let's hope the bad luck is gone.I'd definitely like lamon to stay active.what would you think of fighting a audley Harrison or dominik guinn(whose been fairly active in the last year)who is on the comeback trail as well.how about James toney? I would like to see him vs haye or to stop that overhyped dimitrenko.

Lamon said he wouldn't fight Audley Harrison because it'd be weird considering that they are essentially neighbors in Los Angeles.

James Toney is also a no-no since they are very close friends and trained by the same man, Shadeed Saluki. Toney has been Lamon's chief sparring partner for a while now.

Dominick Guinn? I don't know about that, Guinn doesn't really come to fight. Lamon needs someone who is coming to win to look good.

I agree, David Haye and Dimitrenko would both be great fights for Lamon. They have inviting styles for Lamon since they like to fight. I'd also like to see Lamon fight Martin Rogan, that'd be a war.
