Ramona Kuehne (pictured) defends the WBO, WBFed and WIBF female superfeather titles March 28 at the MBS Arena in Potsdam against Hungarian Gina Charnie in what is SES' second show of the month - but this one is at a somewhat smaller level than the big Stieglitz vs Abraham III bill in Magdeburg March 1.

In the featured fights lightheavy Robin Krasniqi go for the vacant WBO Int’l title against Emmanuel Danso from Ghana and Dominic Boesel, also at 175, take on Cuban Miguel Velozo for the vacant WBO I/C belt. Velozo fights out of the Czech Republic. Of special interest on the undercard is heavyweight Steffen Kretschmann, who makes his debut for SES on this show.

Italian welter Gianluca Branco is sidelined with a knee injury and his upcoming fight against EBU champ Leonard Bundu that was set for April 12 is cancelled. If Bundu is still to defend the title against a substitute is an open question. Bundu vs Branco was to be the co-feature along with Valery Yanchy vs Andrea Sarritzu for the vacant EBU flyweight title on this OPI 2000 promotion. No site have been announced.
