Oh yeah, Masoe - THE most forgotton about world champion in history. Good fight for Sturm, he can call himself a two time world champion but more importantly puts him inline for the championship proper.

What version of the title was Winky vs Tito a number 1 contendor match for?

Stripe Dews vs Elvis is a decent fight also.

The only boxer i know is Felix Sturm and i dont like him.
I dont understand why people say Sturm almost beat Oscar,
How can you almost beat somebody when you throw only
1 or 2 punches at a time? What a fuckin fraud.
Lets see Taylor kill Sturm.

Good fights, Sturm is a decent Boxer and i expect him to negate the threat Of Masoe's power with his smarter Boxing and better technique. Masoe will be looking to land that big shot that KO'd Evans Ashira, before that the ageing Masoe (who is around his late thirties i think) has often been a nearly man when stepping up in competition. I go for Sturm on points although i think Sturm can hurt Masoe.

Drews is in for a tough match against Michailenko and this could be difficult for him coming off a stoppage loss to Paul Briggs. However he needs to overcome Elvis if he has any intentions of getting back into world class, the Light Heavyweight division is not over strong IMO and i still think Drews has a part to play. I expect Drews to win probably on points.

Sturm will not fight Masoe in Croatia, he will only defend his WBO I/C belt vs TBA.

From the Sauerland-Homepage:

Manager Wilfried Sauerland dementierte die Meldung des Internetportals boxrec.com, Beyer würde auf der Boxgala während der Funkausstellung seinen Titel gegen den Kanadier Eric Lucas verteidigen.
"Fest steht lediglich, dass Markus Beyer in der Deutschlandhalle um die WM boxen wird, aber wir haben uns noch für keinen Gegner entschieden", so der Manager. "Lucas ist lediglich einer von vier Kandidaten. Markus ist der Weltmeister, und er kann sich seine Gegner aussuchen. Alles andere ist Wunschdenken der Konkurrenz

Sauerland said "It is only fixed that Markus will box in the Deutschlandhalle for the WBC title, but we have not yet decided who the opponent is. Lucas is one of four candidates. Markus is the champ, he can decide against whom he wants to box. All other stuff is Wishful Thinking of other Promoters"

Freiheit · Post by **Freiheit** » 20 May 2005, 07:44

I changed it back to Beyer vs TBA, you really cant trust those canadians

I am tipping on Nader Hamden as opponent.

steve689 · Post by **steve689** » 20 May 2005, 07:58

I hope it is another opponent, i don't really want to see Beyer-Lucas again even though Lucas won the first fight in my eyes.

BubiScholz · Post by **BubiScholz** » 20 May 2005, 08:15

It´s a free defense so Sauerland will go the easy way. He is his only german World Champion. The actual #1 is Pemberton who is also beatable....... IMO Sauerland will secure the belt to 2006.....

steve689 · Post by **steve689** » 21 May 2005, 08:19

I would rather see Pemberton in there than Lucas, at least the guy is a warrior. He beat Sheika twice and Sheika got the shot at Lacy, how does that figure? Pemberton should get a shot at Beyer.

I want to see it again for those very reasons.

Then Danny Green might oblitirate Lucas again and then we will have a big punching champion.

One way or the other, Lucas will get his shot, Beyer could run but can't hide, the German television said that they wanted Lucas to fight Beyer instead of a 3rd Fight with Sanavia.Cause the Lucas fight was the most controversial one in Beyer's record.

I too had Lucas winning on my card beating Markus 8 rounds to 4, To me, Beyer is the worst world champion in boxing history.
Lucas clearly outboxed him and landed twice as much as Beyer landed, next time it's going to be different, i know.

Fightnews is reporting it's Sturm against Jorge Sendra -- a good opponent for him.

By Fabian Weber

It's official. German boxing star Felix Sturm, 23-1 (11), is fighting on June 18 at the Amphitheater of Pula, Croatia, against Spanish middleweight champion Jorge Sendra. The 25-year-old only once beaten former WBO champion Sturm will defend his WBO international title in what is another move for him toward another world title shot. "Felix is somebody who wants to prove himself and who wants to fight against the best," coach Michael Timm said. "Currently Felix is so motivated that I even have to slow him down in training. He knows that his name has a high value in boxing worldwide. Sendra should suit Felix because he is a very variable technician. The only danger could be when Sendra is going wild." Sturm's stablemate Stipe Drews is also fighting in Pula, which is the birthplace of the Croatian light heavyweight contender and former European champion. The 33-year-old Jorge Sendra, 28-2-1 (22), lost a close split decision in a contest for the European middleweight title earlier this year against Frenchman Morrade Hakkar. The event in Pula will mark the first time that Universum Box-Promotion is promoting an event in Croatia, along with their German television partner ZDF who will broadcast live. In Croatia RTL is broadcasting live
