Firat Arslan vs. Steve Herelius today

[The Hammer]

It will be starting in about an hour.

Firat Arslan is an aggressive entertaining fighter. Steve Herelius is a somewhat elusive, fairly skillful boxer.

This will likely be a good fight.

I have links so you can watch it online, PM me if you want one.

The 2008 Olympic Gold winner at heavyweight, Rakhim Chakhkiev (6-0, 5 KOs) won a wide decision over Lukasz Rusiewicz (8-9, 1 KO) on this card today.

Chakhkiev dominated the durable Rusiewicz over six rounds, easily winning by scores of 60-55 and 60-54 twice.

[The Hammer]

Prospect “Golden" Jack Culcay (5-0, 3 KO), who won Gold at the 2009 world amateurs for Germany, won an easy UD over Omar Siala (12-13-2, 3 KOs) in a light middleweight fight. The scores were identical on all cards, 60-54.

Two or three years ago that's what would have happened.

But I think Arslan's age and long period of inactivity will be a factor. I think Herelius wins a decision or stops him late.

Arslan is 40; Herelius is 33.

This is in germany though so unless herlius KOs him expect an Arslan win or a draw *if* the fight is seemingly won by herelius.

Damn, man you keep European Boxing alive, on this website.

Has Arslan fought yet?

On german broadcaster ZDF they build up to women fight between Menzer and Garside. I don't like women boxing so I hope Arslan comes after that fight.

Firat Arslan turns 40 in September, my friend.

He was born in September 1970.

It's hard to believe it's been almost two years since the great Panamanian, Guillermo Jones, beat the **** out of Arslan.
