UNDERCARD:
Ivica Perkovic vs. David Price: This fight was added last night it seems and Floboxing, which is streaming the fight, did not advertise this fight at all and the stream began with this fight and not the Artur Mann and Paul Drago fight. Price knocked him down in the first round and Perkovic did not look like he knew what he was doing. Perkovic looked really out of shape, and got the wind knocked out of him in the second round and couldn't continue. The referee stopped the fight and Price is your winner. It was a complete mismatch and a really sad way to start the fight. ven in the post-fight interview, he sounded disappointed that he did not get to fight much and calld Perkovic a limited opponent to face.
Official result: David Price defeated Ivica Perkovic via TKO, round 2, 2:10
Because of the sudden change in the card, there might be other fights that will be shown in this stream.
Leon Bauer vs. Giorgi Khuleldze: Just when this fight is going to vitalize this Germany crowd, Bauer hits a wicked left body shot to Khuleldze and Khuleldze did not get up before the 10 count was done. This fight was a thousand times more entertaining that the previous fight. Both fighters were trying to end the fight in the first round, but Bauer used his reach advantage and jab to set up several combinations. Khuleldze tried to take the fight to the inside and was not successful throughout the whole fight. While he did manage to land some hits on his own, he looked like he was playing catch up to Bauer throughout the whole round. Bauer is looking like a decent prospect in the super middleweight division, and he has plenty of time to develop since he is only 18 years old. He might be a contender for a regional title within a year or so if he keeps progressing like this. He has pretty good footwork and that left body hook is not a bad finishing punch.
Official Result: Leon Bauer defeated Giorgi Khuleldze via KO, round 1
Vincent Feigenbutz vs. Guillermo Ruben Andino: Feigenbutz looked really good in this fight. He did not lose a single round in my opinion and had the cleanest performance of the fight thus far. Ruben Andino was pretty much running throughout the whole fight and couldn't get into any rhythm throughout the fight. It got so bad to the point where Ruben Andino took a knee in the sixth round and didn't continue to fight and let the 10-count happen. Feigenbutz has rebounded very well since his January loss to Giovani De Carolis and is on a 3-fight win streak.
Official result: Vincent Feigenbutz defeated Guillermo Ruben Andino via KO, round 6, 2:13
