Three huge WBC title fights at the Ballhausforum in Munich, Germany, this Saturday.
Fast rising Turkish star Avni Yildirim collides with Schiller Hyppolite for the vacant WBC Silver International Championship. Both fighters weighed in spot on at the limit of 76.2 kg (168 lbs.).
The winner of the bout between the #4 (Yildirim) and #7 (Hyppolite) of the WBC super middleweight ratings will take a huge step towards a world title. After Schiller stated that he will play with Avni and make him his “toy”, the 25-year-old Turk brought a Barbie doll to the weigh-in and handed it to his opponent so he has something to play with.
In a highly anticipated women’s middleweight unification fight WBC champion Kali Reis will take on unbeaten champion Christina Hammer. Both champs had no problem making weight. Reis tipped the scale at 71.8 kg (158.3 lbs.) while Hammer was a little heavier at 72.3 kg (159.4 lbs.).
Last but not least German top prospect Toni Kraft is taking on Tanzania’s Abdallah Pazipawazi for the WBC Youth Light Heavyweight Championship. Kraft is looking to defend his unbeaten record (nine fights, nine wins) but Pazipawazi (17 fights, 14 wins) will do his best to spoil the party. Both guys made weight with Kraft (79.1 kg / 174.4 lbs.) being slightly lighter than his African opponent who weighed in at the limit (79.3 kg / 175 lbs.).
The WBC tripleheader is promoted by Alexander Petkovic (Petkos Box-Promotion) in association with Ahmet Oner (ARENA) and will be broadcasted live on Sky Germany.
