WIBF and WBC female feather champ Ina Menzer beat US challenger Francheska Alcanter over ten one-sided rounds in the headliner of Universum´s show at Hall 7 in Bremen on Saturday.
All judges had it 100-90 and Alcanter landed, as far as I could tell, only with two scoring punches in the whole fight. At the same time, she was strong and very fit and Menzer was careful, overly careful perhaps, about getting involved and this made for a not very exciting fight.
WBA bantam king Anselmo Moreno retained the title after twelve fast paced, hard fought rounds against Ukrainian Wladimir Sidorenko with a split decision. It was scored 115-113 on all cards with two for Moreno. American judge Glenn Feldman´s scoring was wrongly announced as 115-112.
To this reporter, the slick Panamanian southpaw was a clear winner even though Sidorenko made some rounds very close with his all-out agression. Trainer Michael Timm worked almost=2 0as hard as his fighter, but Wladimir just couldn´t trap Moreno and get to work - he had his moments but it wasn´t enough.
Moreno could be defending the title in July in France against Frenchman Mayhar Monshipour, who was on hand to negotiate the fight.
Cruiser Aleksander Alekseev outscored Max Alexander over ten on scores of 98-92 twice and 97-93.
