Euro NewsBy Per-Ake Persson Guyla Bozai (11-6-1) and Csaba Faur (6-2-1) clash for the vacant Hungarian cruiserweight title April in Budapest. This is a rematch of their first fight that ended in a draw and also won a Fight of the Year award on Hungarian television. In the co-feature on this Felix-Promotion show Zoltan Kovacs (10-4) take on Oszkar Fiko (8-5-0) with the national superfeather title at stake. Pick of the undercard is Attila Baran (14-8-0) vs Richard Baranyi (5-0) where the winner will be challenging for the Hungarian lightheavy crown. This show is the second of a program billed as "Hungarian Evening" where the idea is to match Hungarians vs Hungarians. It´s televised live by Sport TV. It was announced April 8 that the fight for the vacant EBU middleweight title between Billy Joe Saunders (19-0) and Emanuele Blandamura (22-0) was moved from May 18 to May 10 with site remaining Liverpool. However, today the EBU informs that the fight is now on for July 26 with Queensberry still promoter. ABC Calais (France) won the purse bids today in Rome with a bid for 70.050,00 Euro for the right to stage Romain Jacob's (21-0) defence of the EBU superfeather title against Belgian Ermanno Fegatilli (28-5). Antwerp Boxing Academy bid 65.000,00 Euro. When and where is to be announced within shortly. ABC Calais is headed by Thierry Jacob, Romain´s father, and himself a former World (WBC) and European champ. Italian cruiser Mirko Larghetti (20-0) was reigning EU champ when he got the chance to take on WBO titleholder Marco Huck in a fight that was set for March 28 but was cancelled when Huck was injured in training. Larghetti had by then relinquished the title but will now take on Maurzio Lovaglio (16-0) for the now vacant EU title. The last date for purse bids is May 8 at noon. French superbantamweight Ali Hallab, age 33 and 16-0-1, have announced his retirement. Hallab won the WBO Euro and WBC Meditteranean titles last year and was official challenger for the EU title but have decided to call it a day. Ali was an exellent amateur and participated in the Olympic Games 2004 and 2008 and medals in the European and World championships. Euro ResultsBy Per-Ake Persson April 5, Rostock, GER, Stadthalle, est 5000, Sauerland Event, FvA Jürgen Brähmer, 8,7, Ger TKO 6 (not out) Enzo Maccarinelli, 78,8, UK Brähmer retained the WBA regular lightheavy title when Welsh challenger Maccarinelli was retired by his trainer Gary Lockett between rounds five and six with his right eye swollen shut. Brähmer was ahead 50-45 on all cards after five. It was still an exciting fight with Maccarinelli´s punching power evident. The German was cut over the right eye in the first and either a thumb or an accidental clash of heads caused Maccarinelli´s eye to swell fast and the fight was in effect lost. Brähmer was a little faster in getting off but was momentarily stunned in third after a right before taking control again in what was a messy fight. Maccarinelli survived two inspections with the ringside physician. The eye had the size of an egg at the end and there was little point in letting it continue. 10x3: Tyron Zeuge, 76,2, Ger TKO 9 (0.37) Gheorghe Sabau, 74,7, Rom Zeuge retained the WBO Youth title with a too easy stoppage over Sabau, an unschooled, wild southpaw who kept leading with his head. Sabau was down late in the first and second rounds after counterrights from Zeuge. In the sixth and eighth Sabau had points deducted for headbutts and a bodyshot put him down early in the ninth and the towel came in. Inbetween he was just outclassed. After eight it was scored 80-67 twice and 79-67. 8x3: Kubrat Pulev, 113,8, Bul TKO 4 (not out) Ivica Perkovic, 112,0, Cro Perkovic accepted the fight the day before and was the final opponent after Eljiah McCall, Joey Daweicki and Kris Hughes all pulled out due to one reason or another. Perkovic, a decent spoiler, knew he was out of his league and acted accordingly with Pulev taking it before going for the body in the third and Ivica retired between rounds with a claimed hand or arm injury. Jack Culcay, 69,8, Ger W12-U Salim Larbi, 69,6, Fra 117-111 on all cards and Culcay retained the WBA I/C but again failed to shine against a survivalminded fastmoving opponent. Jack was in good shape, worked hard but could never get Larbi in any kind of trouble Enrico Kölling, 79,5, Ger W8-U Mirsat Bajrektarevic, 79,3, Cro Kölling won all the rounds but seemed to treat as a glorified sparring session. Bajrektarevic, a southpaw, wasn´t very good and had Kölling went at it in his normal way he would have stopped him. Soufiene Ouerghi, 72,5, Tun W8-M Dominik Britsch, 72,5, Ger Ouerghi kept coming but was seldom effective while Britsch kept boxing on the move but ineffective and what seemed like a close fight went to Oerghi on an out of line 79-73 and 77-75 and 76-76. I had a draw. Britsch should have punched more and appears to be a lost man despite his 28-2-1 record. 8x3: Liam Williams, 70,1, UK TKO 8 (0.53) Yuri Pompilio, 69,0, Spa Beating Pompilio is one thing - he´s a rather inept, awkward fighter but stopping him is something else as he is durable and have good stamina. Williams took him apart though and finally went for the body and then moved upstairs flooring his opponent in the last round and it was stopped. Lewis Rees, 64,0, Uk D8-M Renald Garrido, 64,3, Fra Garrido entered the ring as a lion and fought like one as well taking the action to the better boxer and puncher and made Rees fight all the way in an exellent show opener. Rees seemed to win it in my eyes but the judges awarded Garrido´s fighting spirit and had it 76-76 twice and 77-75 Rees. A rematch perhaps? April 5, Abbeville, FRA: h: Johan Duhaupas, Fra KO 7 Janne Katajisto, Fin Duhaupas retained the EU title by knocking out brave Finnish challenger Janne Katajisto in the seventh.
