Porsche-Arena, Stuttgart, Germany Oct. 28th 2006
In the main event that evening highly praised Alexander Dimitrenko successfully defended his
WBO Inter-Continental Heavyweight Title against argentinian Gonzalo Omar Basile.The whole
fight lasted only 54 seconds and was ended when Basiles corner did throw in the towel...
A few jabs followed by a right cross was enough to wobble the Argentinian,who then wasn't
able to defend himself against the onslaught by Dimitrenko.The easy win was accompanied with
a lot of booing from an angry audience,which hoped for a longer fight...
Personally I think Dimitrenko is a bit overrated,he is tall ,has very long arms and a good jab,but thats
it...he lacks power(especially for a heavyweight) and didn't really improve in his last fights...that fast
win last night wasn't helpfull...He is trained by german mastercoach Fritz Sdunek,who trained both
Klitschkos...

In the Super Middleweight prefight german wunderkind Juergen Braehmer had to redeem himself
after his first loss in may this year against Mario Veit.He fought hard headed argentinian Francisco Antonio Mora.
Braehmer was able to dominate the first 5 rounds easily,with a kd in the first round,but then
started huffing and puffing and giving the 6th rnd to the Argentinian.After an even 7th rnd,
Braehmer pulled himself together and first scored a kd and then a terrible ko,which layed poor
Mora flat on the canvas for a few minutes,in the 8th rnd...
Braehmer is definitely talented and has a big punch,but if he doesn't get his condition problems
under control,he is going nowhere...

In another fight that evening cruiserweights Firat Arslan and Grigory Drozd fought a
WBA Cruiserweight Title Eliminator.
The underdog Arslan always pushing forward the whole fight through, taking a lot
of hits, which mainly were blocked,letting the 9 years younger Drozd punch himself out.
After loosing the the first 3 rnds clearly,Firat Arslan started gaining the upperhand against
a tireing Grigory Drozd and was able to tko Drozd,who didn't punch back anymore and just
tried to dodge Arslans attacks,in the 5th rnd...
Arslan says about himself that he isn't talented,but a worker,who has the will to win...
Because it was an eliminator Arslan should fight O'Neil Bell next...,but in boxing you never know...
