Born in Leverkusen, Germany, he had success early on when he became the Junior European Champion in 1997. Three years later, the 21-years old amateur star represented Germany at the [[Olympic Games]] in Sydney and lost a razor thin decision to Bronze Medal winner and future Middleweight World Champion [[Jermain Taylor]]. Just a few months after the Olympic Games, Sturm decided to turn pro and won his professional debut on January 27, 2001.<br /> <br /> At the end of his first year as a professional prize fighter – fighting under the banner of [[Universum Box-Promotion]] – Felix Sturm had a perfect record of 10-0. In 2003, Sturm seized the moment when he replaced his stable mate [[Bert Schenk]] on short notice to challenge [[WBO]] middleweight champion [[Hector Javier Velazco]] in Berlin, Germany. Boxing beautifully, Sturm took the decision and the WBO belt. A new champion was born.<br /> <br /> In June 2004, Sturm took the next step and became an instant star when he faced boxing legend and multiple-time world champion [[Oscar De La Hoya]] in Las Vegas. Most observers felt that Sturm out-boxed his legendary foe and did well enough to get a decision. But the judges disagreed and awarded De La Hoya a controversial and highly debated win. Sturm lost his belt, but archived international recognition.<br /> <br /> Sturm fought back and secured his second world title when he defeated hard-punching [[WBA]] champion [[Maselino Masoe]] in March 2006. The first title defense ended in disappointment as Sturm lost an upset TKO to the experienced Spaniard [[Javier Castillejo]]. Only nine months later, however, the German fighter clearly outpointed Castillejo in their rematch to capture his third middleweight crown. <br /> <br /> In 2010, Sturm parted way with Universum Box-Promotion and founded [[Sturm Box-Promotion]]. Now promoting himself, he came back on September 4, 2010, along with his new trainer [[Fritz Sdunek]], in Cologne, Germany, against the hard-hitting [[Giovanni Lorenzo]] to retain his WBA crown via a one-sided unanimous decision.<br /> <br /> Sturm defeated American contender [[Ronald Hearns]] by TKO in his next fight, before scoring a close decision win in a thrilling affair against Irishman [[Matthew Macklin]] in June 2011. In December of that year, he fought to a disputed draw with unbeaten [[Martin Murray]] – a fight most observers felt Sturm won.<br /> <br /> In April 2012, he gave one of his career-best performances when he thoroughly dominated and stopped former world champion [[Sebastian Zbik]] in a domestic battle in front of 20.000 fans at the Lanxess Arena in Cologne.<br /> <br /> Five months later, he fought Australian [[IBF]] champion [[Daniel Geale]] in a WBA/IBF middleweight title unification in Oberhausen, Germany. After a intense battle over twelve rounds, two of the three judges scored the fight for Geale, making him the winner by split decision.<br /> <br /> Eager to get a rematch, Sturm took on veteran [[Sam Soliman]] in an IBF title eliminator early in 2013. He lost a highly disputed decision to Soliman which was later overturned to a No Contest when Soliman was found guilty of doping. The IBF set up another elimination bout for Sturm, this time with the unbeaten [[Predrag Radosevic]], the highest ranked contender by the IBF at that time. Sturm absolutely destroyed Radosevic in July 2013 in Dortmund, Germany, dropping him three times en route to a fourth round TKO win.<br /> <br /> Now the mandatory challenger for the IBF, Sturm challenged [[Darren Barker]] from Great Britian, who defeated Geale in barnburner in Atlantic City in August 2013, in front of a packed house at the Porsche Arena in Stuttgart, Germany, on December 7, 2013. The German, who was the betting underdog in this fight, seized the moment as he finished Barker in only two rounds to capture the IBF world title and become Germany’s first and only four-time professional world boxing champion.<br /> <br /> Felix Sturm has an outstanding professional record consisting of 39 wins with 18 of them by way of knockout, three defeats, two draws and one No Contest.<br /> <br /> ==World Titles==<br /> *[[WBO]] World Middleweight Title (2003-2004)<br /> *[[WBA]] World Middleweight Title (2006;

Born in Leverkusen, Germany, he had success early on when he became the Junior European Champion in 1997. Three years later, the 21-years old amateur star represented Germany at the [[Olympic Games]] in Sydney and lost a razor thin decision to Bronze Medal winner and future Middleweight World Champion [[Jermain Taylor]]. Just a few months after the Olympic Games, Sturm decided to turn pro and won his professional debut on January 27, 2001.<br /> <br /> At the end of his first year as a professional prize fighter – fighting under the banner of [[Universum Box-Promotion]] – Felix Sturm had a perfect record of 10-0. In 2003, Sturm seized the moment when he replaced his stable mate [[Bert Schenk]] on short notice to challenge [[WBO]] middleweight champion [[Hector Javier Velazco]] in Berlin, Germany. Boxing beautifully, Sturm took the decision and the WBO belt. A new champion was born.<br /> <br /> In June 2004, Sturm took the next step and became an instant star when he faced boxing legend and multiple-time world champion [[Oscar De La Hoya]] in Las Vegas. Most observers felt that Sturm out-boxed his legendary foe and did well enough to get a decision. But the judges disagreed and awarded De La Hoya a controversial and highly debated win. Sturm lost his belt, but archived international recognition.<br /> <br /> Sturm fought back and secured his second world title when he defeated hard-punching [[WBA]] champion [[Maselino Masoe]] in March 2006. The first title defense ended in disappointment as Sturm lost an upset TKO to the experienced Spaniard [[Javier Castillejo]]. Only nine months later, however, the German fighter clearly outpointed Castillejo in their rematch to capture his third middleweight crown. <br /> <br /> In 2010, Sturm parted way with Universum Box-Promotion and founded [[Sturm Box-Promotion]]. Now promoting himself, he came back on September 4, 2010, along with his new trainer [[Fritz Sdunek]], in Cologne, Germany, against the hard-hitting [[Giovanni Lorenzo]] to retain his WBA crown via a one-sided unanimous decision.<br /> <br /> Sturm defeated American contender [[Ronald Hearns]] by TKO in his next fight, before scoring a close decision win in a thrilling affair against Irishman [[Matthew Macklin]] in June 2011. In December of that year, he fought to a disputed draw with unbeaten [[Martin Murray]] – a fight most observers felt Sturm won.<br /> <br /> In April 2012, he gave one of his career-best performances when he thoroughly dominated and stopped former world champion [[Sebastian Zbik]] in a domestic battle in front of 20.000 fans at the Lanxess Arena in Cologne.<br /> <br /> Five months later, he fought Australian [[IBF]] champion [[Daniel Geale]] in a WBA/IBF middleweight title unification in Oberhausen, Germany. After a intense battle over twelve rounds, two of the three judges scored the fight for Geale, making him the winner by split decision.<br /> <br /> Eager to get a rematch, Sturm took on veteran [[Sam Soliman]] in an IBF title eliminator early in 2013. He lost a highly disputed decision to Soliman which was later overturned to a No Contest when Soliman was found guilty of doping. The IBF set up another elimination bout for Sturm, this time with the unbeaten [[Predrag Radosevic]], the highest ranked contender by the IBF at that time. Sturm absolutely destroyed Radosevic in July 2013 in Dortmund, Germany, dropping him three times en route to a fourth round TKO win.<br /> <br /> Now the mandatory challenger for the IBF, Sturm challenged [[Darren Barker]] from Great Britian, who defeated Geale in barnburner in Atlantic City in August 2013, in front of a packed house at the Porsche Arena in Stuttgart, Germany, on December 7, 2013. The German, who was the betting underdog in this fight, seized the moment as he finished Barker in only two rounds to capture the IBF world title and become Germany’s first and only four-time professional world boxing champion.<br /> <br /> Felix Sturm has an outstanding professional record consisting of 39 wins with 18 of them by way of knockout, three defeats, two draws and one No Contest.<br /> <br /> ==World Titles==<br /> *[[WBO]] World Middleweight Title (2003-2004)<br /> *[[WBA]] World Middleweight Title (2006; 2007-2012)<br /> *[[WBA]] Super World Middleweight Title (2010-2012)<br /> *[[IBF]] World Middleweight Title (since 2013)<br /> <br /> ==Regional &amp; Minor Titles==<br /> *[[IBF]] Youth Middleweight Title (2003)<br /> *[[WBO]] Intercontinental Middleweight Title (2003; 2004-2005)<br /> <br /> ==Awards &amp; Other Achievements==<br /> *German Fighter of the Year (2004)<br /> *First and only professional fighter from Germany to win four world championships<br /> <br /> ==Olympic Results==<br /> '''2000''' [[Olympic Games]] in Sydney, Australia (Light Middleweight, representing Germany):<br /> *Defeated [[Dilshod Yarbekov]] (Uzbekistan) 10-6<br /> *Defeated [[Richard Rowles]] (Australia) RSCO-3<br /> *Lost to [[Jermain Taylor]] (United States) 14-19<br /> <br /> ==Amateur Highlights==<br /> '''1997''' European Junior Championships in Birmingham, England (Gold Medalist at Light Middleweight):<br /> *Defeated [[Andrew Larkins]] (England) 14-1<br /> *Defeated [[Stefan Balint]] (Romania) 13-1<br /> *Defeated [[Andrey Miruk]] (Belarus) 3-1<br /> *Defeated [[Evgeny Kazantsev]] (Russia) 3-1<br /> '''1997''' German National Championships (Silver Medalist at Light Middleweight):<br /> *Lost to [[Juergen Braehmer]] 8-19 (Final)<br /> '''1998''' German National Championships (Gold Medalist at Light Middleweight):<br /> *Defeated [[Jorg Rosomkiewicz]] 17-13 (Final)<br /> '''1999''' German National Championships (Gold Medalist at Light Middleweight):<br /> *Defeated [[Jorg Rosomkiewicz]] (Final)<br /> '''1999''' World Championships in Houston, United States (Light Middleweight):<br /> *Defeated [[Andrey Tsurkan]] (Ukraine) 8-3<br /> *Lost to [[Yermakhan Ibraimov]] (Kazakhstan) 4-5<br /> '''2000''' European Championships in Tampere, Finland (Gold Medalist at Light Middleweight):<br /> *Defeated [[Karoly Balzsay]] (Hungary) 5-1<br /> *Defeated [[Miroslaw Nowosada]] (Poland) 5-1<br /> *Defeated [[Dmitri Usagin]] (Bulgaria) 5-0<br /> *Defeated [[Andrei Mishin]] (Russia) 3-1<br /> <br /> ==External Links==<br /> [http://felixsturm.de Official Web Site]&lt;br&gt;<br /> [https://twitter.com/sturmboxing Felix Sturm on Twitter]&lt;br&gt;<br /> [https://www.facebook.com/sturm.felix Felix Sturm on Facebook]&lt;br&gt;<br /> [http://instagram.com/sturmboxing Felix Sturm on Instagram]<br /> <br /> {{start box}}<br /> {{Succession box|<br /> before=[[Hector Javier Velazco]]|<br /> title=[[WBO Middleweight Champion]]|<br /> after=[[Oscar De La Hoya]]|<br /> years=2003 Sep 13 &amp;ndash; 2004 Jun 5<br /> }}<br /> {{Succession box|<br /> before=[[Maselino Masoe]]&lt;br&gt;Regular Champion|<br /> title=[[WBA Middleweight Champion]]|<br /> after=[[Javier Castillejo]]&lt;br&gt;Regular Champion|<br /> years=2006 Mar 11 &amp;ndash; 2006 Jul 15&lt;br&gt;'''Regular Champion'''<br /> }}<br /> {{s-bef|rows=2|before=[[Javier Castillejo]]&lt;br&gt;Regular Champion|}}<br /> {{s-ttl|rows=2|title=[[WBA Middleweight Champion]]<br /> |years=2007 Apr 28 &amp;ndash; 2010&lt;br&gt;'''Upgraded to Super Champion'''&lt;br&gt;2010 &amp;ndash; 2012 Sep 1&lt;br&gt;'''Super Champion'''}} <br /> {{s-aft|after=[[Daniel Geale]]&lt;br&gt;Super Champion}}<br /> |-<br /> {{s-aft|after=[[Gennady Golovkin]]&lt;br&gt;Regular Champion<br /> }}<br /> {{Succession box|<br /> before=[[Darren Barker]]|<br /> title=[[IBF Middleweight Champion]]|<br /> after=&amp;ndash;|<br /> years=2013 Dec 7 &amp;ndash; present|<br /> }}<br /> {{end box}}<br /> <br /> {{DEFAULTSORT:Sturm, Felix}}<br /> [[Category:2000 Olympians]]<br /> [[Category:German Olympians]]<br /> [[Category:World Middleweight Champions]]<br /> [[Category:German World Champions]]<br /> [[Category:Muslim Boxers]]<br /> [[Category:Promoters]]</div> Wolfgang https://boxrec.com/wiki/index.php?title=Sturm_Box-Promotion&diff=510536 Sturm Box-Promotion 2014-01-21T11:01:00Z <p>Wolfgang: </p> <hr /> <div>[[File:Logo Sturm.jpg|350px||left]]<br /> &lt;br clear=all&gt;<br /> ==About==<br /> '''Sturm Box-Promotion GmbH''' is Cologne, Germany, based boxing promotional company founded by four-time world middleweight champion [[Felix Sturm]] in 2010.

Born in Leverkusen, Germany, he had success early on when he became the Junior European Champion in 1997. Three years later, the 21-years old amateur star represented Germany at the [[Olympic Games]] in Sydney and lost a razor thin decision to Bronze Medal winner and future Middleweight World Champion [[Jermain Taylor]]. Just a few months after the Olympic Games, Sturm decided to turn pro and won his professional debut on January 27, 2001.<br /> <br /> At the end of his first year as a professional prize fighter – fighting under the banner of [[Universum Box-Promotion]] – Felix Sturm had a perfect record of 10-0. In 2003, Sturm seized the moment when he replaced his stable mate [[Bert Schenk]] on short notice to challenge [[WBO]] middleweight champion [[Hector Javier Velazco]] in Berlin, Germany. Boxing beautifully, Sturm took the decision and the WBO belt. A new champion was born.<br /> <br /> In June 2004, Sturm took the next step and became an instant star when he faced boxing legend and multiple-time world champion [[Oscar De La Hoya]] in Las Vegas. Most observers felt that Sturm out-boxed his legendary foe and did well enough to get a decision. But the judges disagreed and awarded De La Hoya a controversial and highly debated win. Sturm lost his belt, but archived international recognition.<br /> <br /> Sturm fought back and secured his second world title when he defeated hard-punching [[WBA]] champion [[Maselino Masoe]] in March 2006. The first title defense ended in disappointment as Sturm lost an upset TKO to the experienced Spaniard [[Javier Castillejo]]. Only nine months later, however, the German fighter clearly outpointed Castillejo in their rematch to capture his third middleweight crown. <br /> <br /> In 2010, Sturm parted way with Universum Box-Promotion and founded [[Sturm Box Promotion]]. Now promoting himself, he came back on September 4, 2010, along with his new trainer [[Fritz Sdunek]], in Cologne, Germany, against the hard-hitting [[Giovanni Lorenzo]] to retain his WBA crown via a one-sided unanimous decision.<br /> <br /> Sturm defeated American contender [[Ronald Hearns]] by TKO in his next fight, before scoring a close decision win in a thrilling affair against Irishman [[Matthew Macklin]] in June 2011. In December of that year, he fought to a disputed draw with unbeaten [[Martin Murray]] – a fight most observers felt Sturm won.<br /> <br /> In April 2012, he gave one of his career-best performances when he thoroughly dominated and stopped former world champion [[Sebastian Zbik]] in a domestic battle in front of 20.000 fans at the Lanxess Arena in Cologne.<br /> <br /> Five months later, he fought Australian [[IBF]] champion [[Daniel Geale]] in a WBA/IBF middleweight title unification in Oberhausen, Germany. After a intense battle over twelve rounds, two of the three judges scored the fight for Geale, making him the winner by split decision.<br /> <br /> Eager to get a rematch, Sturm took on veteran [[Sam Soliman]] in an IBF title eliminator early in 2013. He lost a highly disputed decision to Soliman which was later overturned to a No Contest when Soliman was found guilty of doping. The IBF set up another elimination bout for Sturm, this time with the unbeaten [[Predrag Radosevic]], the highest ranked contender by the IBF at that time. Sturm absolutely destroyed Radosevic in July 2013 in Dortmund, Germany, dropping him three times en route to a fourth round TKO win.<br /> <br /> Now the mandatory challenger for the IBF, Sturm challenged [[Darren Barker]] from Great Britian, who defeated Geale in barnburner in Atlantic City in August 2013, in front of a packed house at the Porsche Arena in Stuttgart, Germany, on December 7, 2013.
