I'm not to critical of it, cuz the guy is literally a kid

I suspect it's closer to the latter, since Sauerland doesn't really like to test its fighters, but I will be interested to see what the kid has.

Originally posted by giacomino View PostYeah, he's just a kid, I totally understand that. I was just pointing out that if the story/Sauerland is going to push the fact that he's fighting a 15-fight veteran, it would be nice to know that it's legit (couldn't find him in boxrec) and what his record is. Would be impressed if his record is, like, 13-2 and he's fought somebody beyond novices and maybe has some power, as opposed to 0-15 and has been knocked out 15 times.

Thanks. So Bauer's a young, tall super middleweight fighting a guy who has been KO'd in 7 of 15 fights and last fought at 150lbs. That's why the article touting the fact that his opponent has 15 fights is fairly meaningless, but
I guess it's a pretty predictable opponent at this stage in his career. Another early KO on his resume.
