EURO NEWS

By  Per-Ake Persson

Boxers from Greece or with Greek roots is nothing new but of lately there’s been professional boxing shows staged in Greece and that is something new.
 
The man behind most of the promotions is Stefanos Konstantinides and the main fighters are cruiserweight Tasos Berdelis (4-0) and 1-0 middleweight Konstantinos Petropoulus, who turned pro on a show this past weekend in Glyfada, on the outskirts of Athens.
The Greek audience is still more into kickboxing but Konstantinides and his team are slowly building an audience for professional boxing.
 
****************************
 
Argentinian supermiddle Luciano "La Roca" Cuello (34-3) returns to Spain after being away for five years and take on Romanian Rafael Chiruta (8-34) at the Hotel Asador de Enrique in Madrid on a Maravilla Box Promotion. Cuello is ranked # 11 by the WBC and given the records this may look like a mismatch but the wild punching Chiruta previously upset Ruben Varon - then in line for a shot at the EBU title. Cuello’s losses have been to Canelo Alvarez, Julio Cesar Chaves, Jr, and Willie Nelson.
 
****************************
 
Bosnian heavyweight Adnan Redzovic didn´t just get knocked out by Arnold Gjergjaj in a fight for the EE-EU title October 4 in Switzerland. He also tested positive for drostanolone and is in accordance with the WADA regulations suspended for two years.

Kalinovic won the vacant WPBF European superwelterweight title on scores of 58-56 and out of line numbers of 59-55 and 59-56. I had it 58-56 for Horta, who as always started slowly, lost the first but then got going and put Kalinovic on the backfoot and outworked him until losing the last but still at least fourth could have gone either way in what was an exciting, fastpaced fight. Horta was sure of the win and reacted angrily - with some justice - when the scoring was announced. It was close

Grafka came in on very late notice for Damien Retif and was floored twice in the first by the wildswinging southpaw from Uganda but based in Stockholm. The second knockdown came at the bell and as Grafka fell referee Ake Johansson fell with him and while Grafka got up and walked to his corner Johanssen injured his knee and had to to replaced by Mikael Hook. Grafka made good recovery while Saku, a bit softlooking, tired. After four it was scored 38-37 for Saku.
