There appears to be light at the
end of the tunnel! It will be a
while before things get back to
normal, but promoters are slowly
starting to announce fights and
shows.
Most notably, Top Rank is
bringing back professional
boxing in the United States on
several dates this month, albeit
without spectators, and other
major promoters are aiming to do
the same in July and August in
America and the United Kingdom.
In Germany fans are so far
allowed to attend events, with
certain restrictions, from the
start of September, which has
made it possible for CPI Boxing
to confirm the scheduling of a
big open-air show in the city of
Donauworth on September 5.
Headlining the card will be
undefeated Slovenian sensation
Ema “The Princess” Kozin, 19-0-1
(10), defending her World Boxing
Federation (WBF) Womens World
Middleweight title against an
opponent still to be announced.
21-year-old Kozin, who also
holds the WBF World Super
Middleweight crown, was
scheduled to take on Uruguay´s
former IBF World Champion Chris
Namus before COVID-19 put the
world on hold, but Namus is
unlikely to be the opponent in
September.
