Krasniqi knocks Boesel out

Robin Krasniqi (51-6, 19 KOs) knocked out Dominic Boesel (30-2, 12 KOs) in the third round of their bout, which was the main event of the evening in Magdeburg, Germany. Thus, the 33-year-old German won the interim WBA light heavyweight title.

In the third round Boesel was down twice. Krasniqi from the very beginning relied on right hands and often hit his opponent with them. After another blow with the right, Boesel found himself on the floor for the first time. The 30-year-old fighter quickly got up, but another successful attack forced him to return to the floor and refuse to continue the fight.

For Krasniqi, this was the greatest success in his professional career. Boesel has been a WBA interim title holder since last November.

At the same evening heavyweight Peter Kadiru (10-0, 5 KOs) defeated Roman Gorst (6-1, 5 KOs) by unanimous decision.
