Germany´s Artur “Thunderman” Mann
will take on undefeated Romanian Ion
Mihai Desrobitu for the vacant World
Boxing Federation (WBF) world
Cruiserweight title on November 2 at
the Schilde Halle in Bad Hersfeld,
Germany.
For Mann, 21-4 (12), it will be his
third shot at world honours, having
he lost to Kevin Lerena for the IBO
title in 2019 and Mairis Breidis for
the IBF title in 2021.
The 34-year-old, born in Kazakhstan,
is a former WBO International and
IBO Intercontinental titlist, and
will have a significant advantage in
experience over Desrobitu (30).
The Romanian, who brings an 8-0 (4)
record, will enter his first
championship fight after turning
professional in 2019.
While he has yet to compete at the
level of Mann, he also doesn't know
how to lose as a pro, and he will be
a dangerous proposition for the
local fighter, at least in the early
rounds.
Billed as “Homecoming”, Mann vs.
Desrobitu for the vacant WBF world
Cruiserweight title, will be
promoted by Mann Promotion and is
preceded by a six-fight undercard.
