Euro NewsBy Per-Ake Persson Nuri Seferi (35-6-1) goes for the vacant WBO European cruiser title May 16 at the CU Hall in Hamburg when he takes on Hungarian Tamas Lodi (13-1-1). Seferi (pictured) is trained by former EBU champ and world title challenger Oktay Urkal and is reported by boxen-heute.de to have done ten rounds of sparring against four different sparring partners yesterday and done well. Romanian feather Viorel Simion (16-1) take on Bakhtiyar Iskenderzade (a claimed 9-3) in a ten rounder and Swedish heavyweight Adrian Granat (3-0) is in against Austrian Andreas Kapp (4-2-1) on the undercard.****************************** Queensberry Promotions headed by Frank Warren won purse bids today in Rome for the right to stage Leonard Bundu’s (30-0-2) defence of the title against Frankie Gavin (19-0) with a bid for 110 000 Euro. Double A Promotions, also from the UK, bid 80 000 Euro and Italian Boxe Loreni bid 58 500 Euro. Date and site is to be announced. ****************************** WBA regular lightheavy champ Juergen Brahmer defends the title June 7 in Schwerin against an opponent still to announced. A not confirmed rumor says he will take on unranked Argentinian Roberto Feliciano Bolonti. There will be a press conference on Monday (May 12) where the rumor most likely will be confirmed or denied. Also participating in this press conference are WBO Youth supermiddle titleholder Tyron Zeuge, WBO Youth ruler at cruiser Noel Gevor and lightheavy Enrico Koelling so it must be a safe bet that these three will be featured on the undercard. ****************************** EU lightheavy champ Erik Skoglund will defend the title against Stefano Abatangelo but when and where is to be announced. There were to have purse bids today in Rome but the parties came to an agreement and the fight will be staged by Team Sauerland. Euro ResultsBy Per-Ake Persson May 3, Berlin, GER, Tempodrome, est 5000, Sauerland Event, FvA Arthur Abraham, 76,1, Ger W12-U Nikola Sjekloca, 76,2, Mne Abraham retained the WBO title on scores of 116-112, 119-110 and 116-113. Abraham made a slow start and never opened up apparently hampered by an injured right hand. Sjekloca worked hard and tried to outjab Arthur and went for the body but lacked strength and power although it looked closer than the judges had it. No knockdowns and little drama with Abraham showing a strong and controlled boxing to seal a close win. Noel Gevor, 89,2, Ger W10-U Gogita Gorgiladze, 88,8, Geo Gevor won the vacant WBO Youth title on scores of 100-90 twice and 99-91 after a dull fight and why Sauerland again used the inept Gorgiladze is a good question. 12x3: Timo Schwarzkopf, 63,5, Ger KO 1 (2.47) Anzor Gamgebeli, 61,5, Geo Schwarzkopf won the vacant EE title and how a guy like Gamgebeli can get a title shot is another good question. Eduard Gutknecht, 80,0, Ger D8-S Pablo Sosa, 79,3, Spa 77-75, 77-77, 75-77. Gutknecht started well but once Sosa got going he took over and had the German under pressure in the sixth. Gutknecht was forced to go all out to salvage a draw. 8x3: Dennis Ceylan, 57,1, Den KO 1 (2.40) Dmitry Agafonov, 55,8, Blr Agofonov, a tiny guy, flopped over after some bodyshots in another gross mismatch. 4x3: Burak Sahin, 109,5, Ger TKO 1 (2.17) Zoltan Jerousek, 101,5, Hun Jerousek was floored three times.
