I read sometime back that Sturm was in legal trouble in Germany, so it does not suprise me...............
Who cares about this bum vacating a paper title that he got from another bum. Sturm has ducked so many fighters in his life that I don't even consider him a boxer. Pavlik, Abraham, Pirog and Golovkin are still waiting for Sturm to grow a pair and fight them.
Mostly politics and cowardness (Sturm is longest Golovkin ducker in boxing) Years ago Sturm was with UBP and TV Station ZDF while Abraham with Sauerland and TV Station ARD both were there biggest makebale fighters so they don't wanted to take a risk. Since 2015 both are fighting on the same TV station (SAT1) so an fight is possible but Sturm isn't interested. I think he has other problems at the moment since tested positiv for PED's and fled to bosnia. Anyway the fight should have happed years ago (2008/2009) but it would still be big in germany
