	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.

Boxing beautifully, Sturm took the decision and the WBO belt. A new champion was born.

	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.

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. Sturm lost his belt via U.D. in a close fight, but archived international recognition.

	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.
