History will be made with a
World Boxing Federation (WBF)
double-header on Sunday December
18 at the Sportpalast in
Bielefeld, Germany, when the
worlds youngest licensed
promoter to date,
fifteen-year-old Ranee
Schroeder, presents her first
event.
WBF International Light
Heavyweight Champion Malik
Zinad, 6-0 (5), is set to make
his first title-defense, taking
on Georgian Beka Aduashvili,
19-8 (9), and Frenchman Jean
Moraiti faces Michal Dufek from
the Czech Republic for the
vacant WBF International
Lightweight title.
On the undercard, German
Champions, at Light Heavyweight
and Welterweight respectively,
Elvis Hetemi, 6-0 (6), and
Angelo Frank, 7-0 (4), will
appear in non title bouts,
fighting for free but requesting
donations to support the family
of stablemate Eduard Gutknect.
The German Boxing Association
(GBA) has also decided to work
the show for free, and has
already donated the promoters
license fee and the show fee to
the family of Gutknect, who is
currently in Hospital in Germany
fighting for recovery from the
injuries he suffered against
George Groves last month.
23-year-old Southpaw-talent
Malik Zinad, from Libya but
based in Malta, won the WBF
International Light Heavyweight
title last September in
Slovenia, when he, as part of
the World Boxing Federation
(WBF) World Convention in
Maribor, stopped Hungarian
Attila Palko in six rounds.
On that same night Jean Moraiti,
13-10-4 (1), lost the WBF
International Light Welterweight
crown to Mikheil Avakyan, but he
has since rebounded with a
victory and moved down to
Lightweight in a bid to become a
two-weight champion against
Czech national titlist Dufek,
20-14-1 (14). Also on the line
will be the vacant UBO
Intercontinental title.
