On Saturday, February 7, in front of
a capacity crowd at the
Schilde-Halle in Bad Hersfeld,
Germany, three new World Boxing
Federation (WBF) champions were
crowned.
In a regular shoot-out, Kazakhstani
hot-shot Viktor “The Butcher”
Temirov won the vacant WBF world
Middleweight title when he stopped
courageous German Dominik Arnold in
the fifth round.
Temirov, who improved his record to
10-0 (7), had too much for Arnold
(now 5-1), who did all he could and
it was exciting for as long as it
lasted.
German Yusuf Duskun over-powered
fellow undefeated Jhon Brazon to
capture the vacant WBF
Intercontinental Super Welterweight
title.
Duskun, 14-0 (11), dropped Brazon
twice in round two, ending the fight
with a vicious body-shot which left
the Venezuelan, who dropped to 6-1
(4), on the canvas for almost two
minutes before he was able to stand.
In the main event, former world
Cruiserweight champion Artur
“Thunderman” Mann became a
two-weight WBF world champion when
he captured the vacant Bridgerweight
title.
Mann had no trouble destroying
Venezuela´s Gregory Garcia in the
first round, taking his record to
23-5 (14). Garcia drops to 12-4-1
(10).
