Well ****. I did not expect that, as I had picked Balzay. I didn't think he looked too bad from what I had seen of him.
That's no loss then. They're losing Sturm right? Having Saurland as the one top promoter in Germany will probably be for the better. They at least have their guys fighting some real fights now!
Eric Gomez, match maker of Golden Boy Promotions was seating in the front row. Does Golden Boy got any 168 fighters beside Andrade ?
Yeah, Sauerland has completely taken over, I think Sauerland son Kalle has a lot to do with this lately... this guy is great and has many new great ideas (like the Showtime super six tournament...) - I think he will soon turn into a class promoter
well librado already handed stieglitz his ass, maybe they were thinking of setting up andrade-ballsack at some point glad to see stieglitz get a big win, he's a tough fighter with heart
While Danny Jacobs currently resides at MW, Maybe GBP was scouting future opponents for Danny in case of a move up in weight?
Apparently Balzsay gassed and Stieglitz tore him up something fierce in a "last blaze of glory" kind of way late in the fight. Balzsay had to be rushed to the hospital quickly afterwards if the guy on the Euro forum's call was accurate, and I see no reason it wouldn't be.
great fight i'm happy Stieglitz won he really deserves it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=541dvYYr02Q http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZAdZcmNDGE
