Tonight at the Burg-Waechter Castello in Dusseldorf, Germany, WBA Bantam ruler Wladimir Sidorenko puts his title on the line against Panamanian southpaw Anselmo Moreno on the top of a very big bill.

Sidorenko, 21-0-2 (7), won the WBA belt in early 2005 with a unanimous decision over Mexico's Julio Zarate and to date has retained the title seven times in a row.

This will be the first trip back to Germany for Sidorenko since March of last year as the 31 year old Ukrainian native won his last two contests in France and Japan.

Tonight, Sidorenko will carry his high work rate style into the ring against Anselmo Moreno, a young and hungry challenger from El Martillo, Panama.

The 22 year old southpaw is the reigning WBA Fedecentro titlist and won a WBA title eliminator last August by crushing longtime former NABF beltholder Ricardo "Chapo" Vargas in just one round. More...

There was a good bill last night at the Central Coast Leagues Club in Gosford, NSW last night featuring the much anticipated return of the country's hottest prospect, lightweight William Kickett.

Returning after four months out due to falling through a window and injuring his right hand, 21 year old "Cool Willie" battered Filipino Jurland Ceniza, 6-7-1 (3), in a one-sided contest before the action was stopped at 2:58 of the third frame.

Only a professional since March of 2007, Kickett, 10-0 (5), has already won the Australian Super Feather title and went up to light welter where he defeated the far more experienced former two-time world featherweight title challenger Tommy Browne last December.

Able to fit into several weight classes competitively, Kickett's future appears to be filled with potential big domestic matchups but his rehabilitation from the accident will likely continue at least through one more bout.

American super journeyman Emmanuel Augustus was also on the bill and won his second consecutive bout since relocating to the Sydney area. More...

Sweet Science Events will be hosting an exciting night of boxing tonight, May 30 at Moticello Raceway, Monticello, NY. In the main attraction, Darrel “King David” Madison, 9-1 (3), will face veteran Zuri Lawrence, 23-13-4, for the vacant New York State Heavyweight Title.

After a good amateur career, Madison had his first professional fight in November of 2006 and did what any new prospect should do, he fought four and six round fights facing other new prospects. Over the last year and a half, he stayed busy and fought ten times, facing opponents that had up to eight professional fights.

While some fighters talk about stepping up their level of competition, Madison means what he says. When he steps into the ring tonight, he will face a veteran that has five times the professional ring experience of anyone he has ever faced and who has also been in the ring with past heavyweight champions, contenders and Olympians.

SaddoBoxing had the pleasure of speaking with Madison to talk about his big opportunity and what he has been doing to prepare for his first eight-round main event title fight. More...
