Newly crowned WBA regular cruiserweight king Ryad Merhy (29-1) and Youri Kalenga (25-6) headline a 12 Rounds Promotion show with an exhibition.

The German mega-fight between ex-champions Felix Sturm (41-5-3) and Vincent Feigenbutz (32-3) is still not a done deal and now there's another big all-German fight for Sturm being talked about - at least according to BILD - and that is against former WBA, WBO and EBU light heavyweight champ Juergen Braehmer (52-3).

EBU lightweight champion Edis Tatli (32-3) had surgery to fix his right shoulder earlier this week and his title defence against Italian challenger Gianluca Ceglia that was set for August 8 in Savonlinna (Finland) is now postponed until a later date.

Reigning German (BDB version) super welterweight champ Abass Barou, 4-0, and light heavyweight Leon Bunn, 12-0, headlines Sauerland Event´s show at the CGM Arena in Koblenz (Germany) on February 16. Who they will be fighting is to be announced. The last time Team Sauerland promoted a show in this town was in 94 when Torsten May beat Ralf Rocchigiani in a German title fight at cruiser with heavyweight Axel Schulz in the chief support.

Former WBO interim and EBU super welterweight champion Lukas Konecny (50-5) has retired after 25 years of boxing. Lukas is 35 and also says he has some minor problems with his eyes.

Bill "Two Scoops" Emes catches up with undefeated WBO middleweight champion Peter Quillin to discuss his recent twelve round decision victory over veteran Lukas Konecny, things that bothered him during the fight with the challenger's style, what he plans to do next, what fighters he intends to target next, facing undefeated Danny Jacobs and more.

DC Armory, Washington, District of Columbia - WBO middleweight champion Peter Quillin (31-0, 22KOs) had few issues in winning a lopsided twelve round unanimous decision over tough veteran Lukas Konecny (50-5, 23KOs). The scores were 120-108, 119-109, 119-109.

While most boxing observers are wondering when Peter Quillin will face Danny Jacobs, Curtis Stevens or another middleweight who’s reasonably noteworthy, the WBO 160-pound champion is preparing for another optional defense Saturday night in Washington, D.C.

WBO middleweight champion Peter Quillin threw and landed well below weight class average- but has the great equalizer- a hammer right hand. Quillin's opponents (Rosado, Guerrero, N'dam) landed 41% of their power punches. Lukas Konecny threw and landed above weight class average vs. Achour, Baysan, Dzinzurik), who landed just 20% of their total punches.
