For quite some time SES-Manager
Ulf Steinforth kept everybody
guessing, but the main event on
the BRAUN BULL FIGHT NIGHT
at the International Floral
Exhibition in Aschersleben,
Germany will pit reigning WIBF
super-featherweight world
champion Ramona “The Dragon”
Kuehne against Dahianna Santana
in a much anticipated rematch.
Apart from a lot of
prestige, the World Boxing
Federation as well as the WBO gave
their blessings and regard this
fight as for their vacant world
crowns.
Even if Berlin-born Kuehne (now
with 15 wins, 4 KO’s and only 1
loss on cuts) faced Santana from
the Dominican Republic before,
she might yet fight a totally
different foe. Santana with a
solid record of 22 wins (11
inside) and 5 losses, has won 8
in a row since she put up a fine
performance against Kuehne,
before bowing her head and lose
on points. As her record shows,
Santana has matured and perhaps
their first meeting may have
come too early. With this
impressive developments she
earned herself another change to
take revenge in Aschersleben
against her 30-year-old former
conqueror. Besides, a win with
three world titles is a
'once-in-a-lifetime' reward - if
that isn't motivating!
Kuehne, when talking about her
former adversary: “I kept
track of her career since we
fought and I must say, she grew
stronger. Perhaps she was a bit
too green for that fight with
me. In fact, I expect a total
different challenger than 18
month ago.” Since cuts on her
left eyebrow robbed Kuehne from
showing her very best, when
nothing was decided yet, last
January when facing Ina Menzer,
it’s a safe bet that Kuehne
won’t leave any doubts on June
4.
The Kuehne vs. Santana rematch,
along with the return of the
'German Oak', veteran Timo
Hoffmann, will be televised life
from Aschersleben by Sport 1
from 22.00 h. |
