    The ageless wonder that is the German based Turk continues his improbably long run of moderate success and looks to cap it off with his biggest victory in over a decade just seven months shy of his 50th birthday with an upset over the current IBO champ, 22 years his junior. Lerena is venturing outside South Africa for just the third time in his pro career to face his fellow southpaw, whose own pro debut came when Lerena was a toddler. Lerena's reign has been marked by allegations of home-cooking, which obviously won't factor in here, but he does still have a two-inch advantage in height as well as that of being in the full bloom of prime youth.

    Common opponent Sefer Seferi drew with Arslan last November, but was stopped in three by Lerena this September.

    Hopefully Arslan ****s Larena in the arse puts him in the camel clutch and makes him HUMBLE. But yeah that's probably not happening. Larena only travels if his handlers are ultra confident.. Harder to find a more certain win than a nearly 50 year old man.

    idk, Lerena's nickname seems as ill-fitting as Niyomtrong's. Arslan - who isn't himself a huge puncher - has a much higher stoppage rate (55 to Lerena's 44... granted he might just happen to have fought a few tough guys along the way during his S. Africa homestand, but - that many?)

    As much as I’d hate to see Fırat go out on a loss to a pretender like Lerena, this’ll probably(and very sadly) end like B-Hop/Joe Smith.

    Christina Hammer returns on the undercard, btw. First time in action since the loss to Claressa Shields ten months ago.

    She's taking on 4x world title challenger Florence Muthoni Gachau.

    Arslan should break.every rule in the book here. Larena is a cheap, cherrypicking fraud who has Berman fixing his matches in South Africa for him. Of course whenever he travels it's only against bodybuilders and senior citizens.

    Looks like it’s going to be broadcast on DMax in Turkey at 1:25PM EST. I think they stream on their website so it shouldn’t be too hard to watch.

    WAR ARSLAN!

    I'll take 5 shots of vodka in succession if Arslan pulls it off. **** Larena

    I misread that as Christian Hammer and thought you'd made a cruel joke about Shields looking like Ortiz.

    The 49 year old man, with the testosterone levels of a 5 year old bull.

    Im going to assume that drug testing will be suitably lax for Arslan in Germany
