Susianna Kentikian retained the WIBF and WBA Female Flyweight titles with a ten round unanimous decision over outclassed American challenger Elena Reid. It was scored 100-90 twice and 100-91 last night in Hamburg, Germany.
Reid had her day back in 2004 when she looked very unlucky to only get a draw with then female star Regina Halmich, who was commentator for Pro Sieben on this show.
Off this showing, it looks time for “Baby Doll” to do something else than boxing as the aggressive Kentikian dominated every round.
WBO Intercontinental Middleweight Champ Sebastian Zbik knocked out Spanish challenger Ruben Varon in the fourth with a left hook to the body. The bigger, stronger German dominated the contest but Varon, down in the second as well, showed a big heart in defeat.
Heavyweight Sebastian Koeber hurt Belgian Jean Claude Bikoi in the second and forced a standing eight count but didn´t land the finisher until the tenth round.
The German dominated most of the rounds except the seventh and eighth but didn´t impress. His right hand is very powerful though and saved the day for him.
Russian light heavy Igor Michalkin outscored Jose Tavares from France over six.
