Fans of all-action fights can look forward to another highlight this fall. On November 3, WBO Cruiserweight Champion Marco Huck is going to defend his beloved title against “fighting machine” Firat Arslan. The venue for this world championship bout will be the Gerry-Weber-Stadium in Halle/Westphalia, Germany.
Nevertheless, in Firat Arslan, the prodigy of Ulli Wegner will face the number eight-ranked fighter by the WBO, who will be anything but an easy ride for him. “He is a real machine, constantly putting pressure on his opponents. Moreover, he is a southpaw. I will have to be in top condition,” according to the world champion.
Sauerland Event managing director Chris Meyer: “We are happy to be hosting another all-German affair. These are the kind of fights, which polarise the masses. Huck against Arslan is also a fight between a current and a former world champion. That gives it some extra spice.”
Tickets for the event on November 3 can be purchased online at www.eventim.de or www.gerryweber-stadion.de. Further information can be obtained at www.boxen.com.
