EURO RESULTS

By Per-Ake Persson

March 11, Budapest, HUN, Morrison´s Pub, Fight Life Promotion & Tibor Feja
8x3, h: Pezhman Seifkhani, Swe  KO 1  Gergely Horvath, Hun
Horvath was down and counted over twice but was down several times more in a blatant quit job.
6x3, lh: Marco Calic, Cro  KO 1  Gabor G Farkas, Hun
The much smaller Farkas fell over easily and was counted out.
6x3, sw: Israrullah Yaqobzai, Uk/Swe  KO 1  Mihaly Donath, Hun
Another flop ... the three Swedes came to fight, fully prepared - their opponents? Well, they showed up...

Viktor Biscak

March 10, Struer DEN, Energi Park, Sauerland Event / local promoter
10x2: Dina Thorslund, 55,2, Struer, Den  W10-U  Alicia Ashley: 54,5 Jam/US
Thorslund won the vacant WBC female interim superbantam title on scores of 96-94 twice and 97-93. Ashley blew the fight with a rather passive first four rounds where she showed slick moves but little action. After the fifth Ashley began to take the fight to Thorslund and turned the fight around but it was too little too late. On my card she salvaged a draw but not more.
6x3: Nick Hannig, 77,5, Ger  KO 6 (1.47) Adam Bashanov: 77,5, Struer, Den
Hannig proved to be a heavyhanded puncher and he took it to Bashanov´, who held up well despite beating and badly busted nose. Hannig, a bit heavy, looked as if he was about to punch himself out and Bashanov had a good third round but it all went downhill from there. Bashanov avoided many punches but didn´t fire back and in the fifth he finally went down. In the sixth he had nothing left and went down and out after a triple left hook downstairs. Best fight of the evening though.
8x3: 8x3: Jesus Sanchez, 57,5, Spa  KO 2 (2.59)  Dennis Ceylan: 57,6, Den  
Sanchez didn´t retreat - he was in it to survive while Ceylan stalked him. Sanchez threw long, wide punches and late in the second one caught Ceylan who went down on his back, got up but was wobbly and it was stopped in a major upset. Later, Sanchez would say he knew Ceylan started fast as they had sparred in Madrid and thus tried to stay out of harm´s way.
6x3: Kem Ljungquist, 107,5, Den  KO 2 (1.52)  Frantisek Kohout, 101,5, Cze
Ljungquist found a home for his southpaw left and floored Kohout twice in the second.
Arut Marutjan, 73,0, Ger  W4-U  Nikoloz Gvajava, ?, Geo
Marutjan covered up well and won clearly, 40-36 twice and 39-37, but need to show more. Gvajava can both fight and punch a little but more positive work is needed from a so called prospect.
Mikkel Nielsen, 69,5, Den  W6-U  Jamal Shalamberidze, ?, Geo
60-54, 59-55 and 58-56 for "Pjatrov" - but not a good fight or performance from Nielsen. Shalamberidze, a southpaw, showed the better skills but lacked the strength or conditioning of his opponent.
Brian Pelaez, 58,0, Spa  W4-S  Frederik Hede Jensen, 57,0, Den
39-38, 39-37 Pelaez and 39-37 Hede, a southpaw who worked very hard but was seldom effective and tired while Pelaez green as he is showed the better skills.
Haris Dzindo, 75,0, Den  W4-U  Karoly Lakatos, 72,0, Hun
40-36 twice and 40-35. To say that Lakatos was in it to survive is to put it mildly. He didn´t throw a punch for two rounds, just avoided punches, moved and clinched.

March 10, Lillestrom, Oslo, NOR, X-Meeting Point, Maravill Box Nordic
Katharina Thanderz, 60,7, Nor/Spa   W8-U  Valgerdur Gudsteinsdottir, 60,7, Ice/Swe license
Thanderz won the vacant WBC Int´l female lightweight title on scores of 78-74 twice and 79-73. Gudsteinsdottir came in on short notice after Taoussy L´Hadji pulled out after problems with the strict Norwegian rules and the fight went from an EBU fight at superfeather to WBC Int´l at lightweight.
8x3, lh: Alexander Hagen vs Przemyslav Gorgon
BBU title - off as Hagen was forced to pull out due to a broken nose.
6x3, c: Tamas Kozma, Hun  KO 1  Kent Erik Badstad, Nor

h: Petar Milas, Ger  TKO 8  Kevin Johnson, US
Johnson forced out with a cut eye after a headclash - and that killed a fight for the WBConfederation title in Potsdam in two weeks. It was called off by the doctor and while it was bad gash blood didn´t seem to get in Johnson´s eye.
