Two World Boxing Federation (WBF) title fights top the bill when Bear Boxing Promotions presents “Colosseum Fight Night” at the Hochlandhalle in Weilheim, Bayern, Germany on June 22.
In a fight for the WBF World Super Middleweight title, Alexander Rigas, 19-2 (8), will take on undefeated Benjamin Blindert, 14-0-2 (10), in a very intriguing all-German match-up.
Rigas enters the fight with momentum, coming off six straight victories, while Blindert has something to prove following two draws with faded former European champion Siarhei Huliakevich last year.
The co-featured attraction sees WBF International Welterweight champion Wassim Chellan, 8-0 (3), from South Africa, defend against local man Adel El Garmaoui, 12-0 (9).
Chellan won the title last October in Cape Town, defeating Malawian Denis Mwale, and is now ready to go to his challengers turf for his first fight outside South Africa.
El Garmaoui has beaten undefeated opponents before, stopping 9-0 Jakub Chval and 14-0-1 Sherif Morina, but Chellan is a step up and has no intentions of going home without his title.
The two WBF title fights will be supported by a massive undercard involving up-and-coming prospects in interesting fights.
