This is what the sport needs, genuine title fights like this one to bring it back into the mainstream and full credit to KANAL AVRUPA TV for showing it. I bet they'll be a queue on the boxing torrents sites for this one.

I'm thinking of a road trip myself, can't afford to miss this one.

LMFAO

That is quality....

Feel the sarcasm!

Well Gereev is unbeaten at 5-0 so i would make him the slight favourite, however Karaka's 2-2 record shows he is ready for this multi title shot, should be a cracker.

Excellent news. But should there not be a Calzaghe-type disclaimer warning that the fight will only go ahead as long as Gereev manages to negociate tricky and durable light-middleweight Vaclav Bodack first?

GBC intercontinental title is particularly amusing, suggesting that there is actually a holder of the 'world title.' The GBC's the one run by the people of a.n.d. isn't it?

Since he doesnt list GBC on his site I doubt it. It will mean GBC will be world male sanctionbody #29. 16 female sanctionbodies so far.

Now I know my ABC, won't you come and fight with me?

Being sad, I have them all on a spreadsheet, with web adresses, year founded etc beside it where applicable. My current tally is 35

Gereev KO'd his previously unbeaten opponent last night to keep hopes of this mouth watering triple title match-up alive

That is good news, i await the main title event now next month.

Gereev's record is unbelievable, it makes Butterbean's opposition look world-class.

I always thought the next step up for a prospect was to fight somebody with a winning record, but in Gereev's case it will be to fight somebody with a win.

One month to the day chaps. 25th of November it's gonna be happening. I'll barely have any hands left left alone fingernails.

Tonight is the night ladies and gentlemen.

Tonight is the night the WBE and EBF european youth welterweight titles are unified. We all know the GBC intercontinental title is just a meaningless title compared to the other two, but an important boost to the victor's GBC ranking nevertheless.

We need predictions, round by rounds, accounts of how this fight is going to change your lives, post-fight interviews, pre-fight interviews, during-fight interviews, Herbie Hide in the audience, a letter of challenge from Joe Calzaghe to the winner, bunting, confetti, anything else I've forgotten.

Gereev TKO TD DRAWS Karaka 17th round (karaka wins on silver goals rule.)

I'm predicting one of them loses this on the scales.

Thank you. But please don't call me Evar

Sorry dude. T'was merely a nod to the Simpsons' Comic Book Guy, who I resemble in more than my employment of n00b-esque colloquiallisms.

Great post though.

Not a problem, get you now :P

Any news on how this epic event ended up? I can't be arsed to look up the results Could it be too far fetched to find someone who actually attended?!

Has it even started yet? I was hoping for a round by round.

Settle down lads, the six minute ringwalks have just begun.

C'mon all you lucky KANAL AVRUPA TV patrons, don't keep us in suspense, what was the outcome?

Don't tell me it was cancelled, I think I couldn't bear it.

------------------------------

Forget that, just seen the result has gone up. Gereev KO 1 class

Well now we know that Gereev can beat someone who has actually won a fight before I personally think he will be unstoppable. I'd suggest Judah-Tarver-Johnson (both of these together) - Byrd-Ruiz-Butterbean-Peter Buckley as a career path, finished off by challenging Plato for his UNIBOX international featherweight title

"Zapir Gereev won the inaugural EBF 147 lb title yesterday in Berlin with an eight round stoppage of Turk Mehmet Karaca. The show at the Columbia Club drew a full house of about 700 people."

Give it time...in a few years or so there will be thousands of people claiming to be there the night the inaugural EBF title was won.
