Is Koelling the first of the 2012 Olympians to make his pro debut?

I'm not sure.
At the 2012 Olympics he beat Christian Donfack Adjoufack from Cameroon then lost to Algerian Abdelhafid Benchabla.
Here's a new article about Kubrat Pulev:

Sauerland plans a "triple attack" on Wladimir Klitschko:
- If Povetkin wins today, according to Sauerland he'll fight Klitschko in early 2013 as Wlad's WBA mandatory.
- If Pulev wins today, he'll be Wlad's IBF mandatory.
- Helenius will be back on November 10 and Sauerland will try to move him up in the WBO rankings toward a mandatory shot.

Thought Sauerland said that if Povetkin wins "impressively" he'd fight Wlad.
Hope Ustinov and Rahman win just to screw with his plans--aside from the fact that I detest Povetkin and want him KO'd.

If it all comes off then Wladimir is going to have his work cut out since the first Samuel Peter fight next year expect a football stadium somewhere in to be packed for each of those fights should it all happen.

PosSat has a light middleweight undercard fight on now. It's over, Koelling won his debut by decision but he didn't look impressive.
allegedly live telecast hasn't started yet, they are showing an old Gerber fight.

Graf is putting a terrible beating his opponent Grainger , who has too much heart for his own good.

Grainger made the distance!
UD win for Graf, who looks like a promising cruiserweight.
