Lightheavy Moritz Stahl (8-1) take on Varol Vekiloglu (21-7-1) in another six rounder.
 
Vekiloglu was all set to fight Karo Murat late October in Cuxhaven but was cut on his way to the dressingroom under mysterious circumstances and had to pull out of the fight but is now hopefully fully recovered and if he is he should be able to give Stahl a tough evening on this SES promotion.
