	The boxing event was hosted in a large tent on a hot summer night in the town of Hyfte-Lochristi, Belgium. It was the second pro fight for Suppan from the Netherlands and the 52th for the experienced journeyman Botos from the Czech Republic. Though Botos had lost most of his recent bouts, he certainly wasn't a walk-over. It was the faster, more agile Dutchman against the older but very sturdy Czech. Suppan took the initiative from the start and moved very well around Botos. He was able to hit him frequently but Botos made himself very small and kept low, almost presenting his forehead for Suppan as the preferred target. From time to time Botos would then leave his low stance by suddenly rising and simultaneously swing some hooks at Suppan. Most of them missed as Suppan was very sharp. He would dodge them or simply change position rapidly. The first three rounds showed this routine and they were all clearly for Suppan.

	In the fourth round, Botos seemed to get tired and tried to slow Suppan down by clinching and leaning. Being the experienced fighter that he is, he succeeded in his aim in the beginning of this round, until Suppan started to evade him even faster. Halfway this round Botos gave Suppan a low blow. It was ruled as unintentional but it seemed that Botos needed this to get some air himself. After a few moments rest, Suppan resumed the fight and looked now determined to finish the fight without the judges scorecards being needed. He was able to hit Botos a few times on the body and as usual on his head and Botos took a knee. In the ~~fifht~~ round Suppan kept on landing his shots and it was almost a miracle that Botos again took only one knee in this round. In the sixth round, Suppan more or less swirled around Botos, landing his shots at free will. Botos still was sturdy but he wasn't a threat himself anymore. Botos took one knee, a second knee and after the third time he got down, the referee ended the fight.
