Avni Yildirm (21-1-0, 12) just retained his title in a tough and spectacular fight against still superfit WBC top rated Lolenga Mock on Saturday September 15 in Ludwigshafen, Germany.     

Mr. Ahmet Öner promoted this very good fight.

The final verdict was a Majority Decision  in favor of the defending champion.   Judge Jürgen Langos had 113-113   –   Judge Sergio Silvi had 113-112 (Yildirim)   –   Judge Maurizio Rinaudo was too wide with his scoring  as he eventually  had 116-111 for the champion.   The  referee was Mr Manuel Maritxalar of Spain.
