Danish lightweight prospect Kim Poulsen (12-1, 3 KO’s) will headline a show in Aalborg, Denmark on December 4, when he takes on tough Kenyan warrior Athanas Nzau (19-7, 8 KO’s) in a fight scheduled for eight rounds.

22-year-old Poulsen is coming off a second-round blow-out of Tanzanian Obote Ameme in June, and will surely get a much sterner test against Nzau, who holds a victory over Poulsen’s countryman, and former European champion, Spend Abazi. More...

Everything was more or less set for an announcement of Kim Poulsen’s next fight, planned for October in Germany, but when the show was postponed it unfortunately became impossible for the Danish lightweight to participate as the new date collides with a long-ago-planned trip to Kenya.

“Its been in our planning for a long time that Kim’s next fight were to be in early October, and that he would then join his trainer Brian Mathiasen on a trip to Kenya and return in late October," says manager Henrik Risum. More...

It´s rumored that WBO light heavy champ Zsolt Erdei´s next defence will be in Germany on September 5 and the opponent will none other than Universum stablemate Juergen Braehmer, the current European champ.

According to manager Henrik Risum, the fight was made to help develop Poulsen mentally and add another layer of experience to his arsenal. More...

When Kim Poulsen signed a professional contract with Risum Boxing in the summer of 2006, he was fortunate to get an experienced and knowledgeable trainer such as Brian Mathiasen.
