(SEPT 17) On September 15, Rostock, Germany: Jurgen Brahmer did
everything he did wrong the first
time around right this time and knocked out fellow
German Mario Veit in the fourth to retain the WBO I/C
super middle title. Brahmer was on top from the start
working behind his southpaw jab. Veit was wobbled by
that jab in the first and Jurgen seemed to be on his
way to neutral corner when he discovered his opponent
was still standing. A hard right from Veit in the
third shook Brahmer and cut him by the right eye in
what was Veitīs only success. Brahmer really went to
work after that and shook Veit at the end of the
round. Jurgen then jumped on Mario as the fourth round started and
floored his opponent. Veit survived but was then knocked out by a
combination at 0.47 of the round. He didn't seem badly hurt but sort of
gave up.
Russian cruiser Aleksander Alekseev defended the WBO I/C title with ease
stopping outgunned American Darrin Humphrey in the fourth. Humphries was
down in the second and third. Alekseev, a southpaw, is already
world class but may need a little more seasoning
before being moved for a world title.
Alesia Graf retained her GBU super fly title with a
unanimous decision over Zulina Munoz from Mexico. It
was hard fought all the way and quite close although the
judges had Graf well ahead on points.
Polish light heavy Aleksy Kuziemski stopped Argentinean Julio Cesar
Dominguez in the 12th and final round to win the vacant WBO I/C title.
Kuziemski was well in control for most of the fight. He had Dariusz
"Tiger" Michalczewski rooting for him while Dominguez had no other than
former cruiser champ Marcelo Dominguez in his corner.
