Hard-punching World Boxing
Federation (WBF)
Intercontinental Heavyweight
Champion Samir Nebo will make
his first title-defense on
Saturday December 17, in the
main event of a stacked show at
the Boxhalle in his hometown of
Torgau, Germany.
Nebo, 8-1-1 (8), won the WBF
title in his most recent outing,
last April, when he, in a
dominant performance, disposed
of former Belorussian champion
Andrei Mazanik in five rounds,
and now he is ready to continue
his climb up the Heavyweight
ladder.
He will be challenged by
Georgian banger Davit
Gorgiladze, who enters his first
championship fight with a nice
11-2 (9) record. From Tbilisi,
Gorgiladze has only lost to very
competent opposition in
undefeated Apti Davtaev (10-0-1)
in Russia, and Bogdan Dinu
(15-0) in Romania.
Nebo has not lost a fight since
his professional debut in 2011,
and after scoring a draw in his
second pro fight he has reeled
off eight straight stoppage
victories. At thirty-five years
of age he is no spring chicken,
but in the Heavyweight division,
where its common to peak later
than in other weight-classes, he
still has time to make a real
impact.
“Torgauer
Champions Night” is presented by
promoter Yashar Millnits, and
the main event will be supported
by a full undercard featuring
exciting match-ups from top to
bottom.
