    Troja Boxing Group was forced to cancel their big promotion in Berlin that was set for October after the headliners fell through, one after another. Rico Mueller vs Nasser Athumani for the IBO international welterweight title will now go ahead at another date.

      Alexeev-Licina is a good, competitive fight.

      Both are decent fighters, but neither is quite world-class.

              He developed schizophrenia and badly assaulted someone the night after attending a boxing card. He's currently serving time for the assault in a mental institution.

              Promoter Kalle Sauerland is one of the most charismatic characters in the sport. Born in Germany, schooled in England, he has been around boxing his entire life as the son of Hall of Fame boxing promoter Wilfried. He has been instrumental in the World Boxing Super Series and its forerunner, the Super Six, and he's promoted some of the biggest European names in recent years, including Nikolai Valuev, Mikkel Kessler, Arthur Abraham, David Haye and Marco Huck. He has done this while internet fans have dubbed him the 'Colombian Kalle' but also while becoming a hugely popular cult hero, an unusual role for a promoter.

                      No problem, I wondered for years myself. You don't just forget a guy that wins a title with a huge KO, and then just disappears.

                      Crazy story, hope he is able to get his life back together one day.

                          For years i wonder, i search almost every other year. His KO of Enzo maccarinelli was scary, he was 25 at the time and i thought this guy would go on and make it big. Now 10 years later no news until you revealed what happened to him.

                          I pray he recovers from it all and even those that has been affected by his mental health behaviour.
