Both women’s world champion Ramona Kuehne and International champion Denis Simcic successfully came through their respective first defences of their World Boxing Federation crowns this past weekend (Dec. 3) in Dresden, Germany.

‘The Wild Dragon’ Kuehne overcame undefeated challenger Irma Balijagic Adler of Bosnia Herzegovina in a solid rather than spectacular fashion, retaining her women’s world super featherweight title for the first time (the WBO and WIBF titles of the triple champion also being on the line). Her trainer, and partner, Stefan Boestfleisch had given Ramona a perfect gameplan and the fighter followed through to near perfection.

Her defence being much improved, Ramona kept the fight at a high pace and always landed the better punches to come away with a unanimous verdict (twice 100:90 and 97:94). The 30-year-old Kuehne improved to 17-1 (5).

Denis Simcic, the Slovenian under contract to promoter SES Boxing, also gave a near flawless performance at light heavyweight in the inaugural defence of his International title. Challenger Jindrich Velecky was outboxed and outfoxed and quickly started to bleed from the nose. The Czech puncher, in the rare moments he got close to Simcic, could never really get through, as the WBF champ also showed a solid defence and quick moves.

The decision after 10 rounds was a near formality: Two judges scored it a shutout at 100:90, while the third gave a single round to Velecky at 99:91. Simcic’ record now stands at an impressive 25-1 (14).
