Having won the title almost exactly one year ago in Denmark, Albanian World Boxing Federation (WBF) World Heavyweight Champion Erzen Rrustemi remained a “road warrior” when he made his first defense on Saturday night, March 3, in Karlsruhe, Germany.
The fight going out live on Pay-Per-View in Germany via ranfighting.de, Rrustemi made short work of late substitute challenger Juan Pedro Guglielmetti from Argentina, ending matters impressively at 1:49 of the second round.
After an even first round, Rrustemi knocked his foe down midway through the second, but Guglielmetti managed to beat the count of referee Ingo Barrabas.
However, when Rrustemi followed up and scored a second knock-down it was all over as Barrabas reached the count of ten.
With 2500 lively spectators at the Ufgauhalle, Switzerland-based Rrustemi improved his professional record to 13-0 (11), while Guglielmetti drops to 11-4 (9).
