Serdar “Bomber” Sahin from
Berlin is the new World Boxing
Federation (WBF) World
Cruiserweight Champion after
winning the vacant title on
Saturday, November 18, at the
Essen Fairgrounds in Essen,
Germany.
With former undefeated World
Super Middleweight Champion Sven
Ottke in his corner, Sahin, now
27-2 (18), defeated Diego Javier
Sanabria, 59-18-3 (46), by third
round knockout, possibly
breaking the Argentinians ribs
with a perfectly placed
body-shot.
The fight, waved off by referee
Mike Wissenbach at 1:55, was the
main event of a show promoted by
the worlds youngest promoter,
15-year-old Ranee Schroeder.
In Dole, France, also on
Saturday night, Bilel Latreche
captured the vacant WBF
International Light Heavyweight
title with a ninth round
stoppage of Finnish visitor
Janne Forsman, in front of 2500
spectators on a self-promoted
show at La Commanderie.
Latreche, who improved his
record to 23-5-1 (5), was the
more skilled of the two and had
success with his movement and
combinations, while Forsman, now
22-9 (14), attempted to land
single power-punches but only
managed to do so occasionally.
In round nine Latreche scored
two knock-downs, forcing referee
Christophe Hembert to
appropriately call a halt
immediately after the second.
Time of stoppage was 3:00.
South Korea´s Hye-Soo Park won
the vacant WBF Womens
Intercontinental Light Flyweight
crown at the Gyeyang Gymnasium

with scores of 96-94 (Man-Deuk
Kwon), 97-93 (Kyung-Han Lee) and
98-92 (Yeong Bok Park).
