Giovanni De Carolis stops Vincent Feigenbutz

Giovanni De Carolis stops Vincent Feigenbutz

Interim WBA super middleweight champion Vincent Feigenbutz (21-2, 19 KOs) fell apart tonight in getting beaten by 31-year-old Italian Giovanni De Carolis (24-6, 12 KOs) by an 11th round technical knockout in their rematch at the Baden Arena in Offenburg, Germany. De Carolis, #14 WBA, unloaded on the 20-year-old Feigenbutz with a series of power shots in the 11th round to get the TKO victory. The fight was stopped by referee Gustavo Padilla at :32 of the round.

Feigenbutz probably should have taken a knee to try and clear his head after getting hurt, but he was too out of it to think clearly. Feigenbutz fought like he wasn’t thinking too clearly from the 1st round, as he let the fight get out of hand early with De Carolis getting off to a big lead in the first half of the fight by simply being the busier fighter. Feigenbutz came back a little bit in the 2nd half of the fight in throwing some nice power shots that connected. He was fighting more for survival at that point.

Feigenbutz defeats De Carolis, looks horrible

Feigenbutz defeats De Carolis, looks horrible

In a disappointing performance tonight by WBA interim super middleweight champion Vincent Feigenbutz (21-1, 19 KOs), he was forced to squeak by fringe contender #13 WBA Giovanni De Carolis (23-6, 11 KOs) by a disputed 12 round unanimous decision at the dm-Arena in Karlshrue, Germany.

Many boxing fans felt that the 20-year-old Feigenbutz should have been given a defeat rather than a victory, as he was outworked by the 31-year-old De Carolis in the majority of the rounds. What was even more embarrassing for the highly hyped Feigenbutz was him getting knocked down in the 1st round by a right hand from De Carolis.

Feigenbutz faces De Carolis on Saturday

WBA interim super middleweight champion Vincent Feigenbutz (20-1, 19 KOs) will be taking a risky fight against #13 WBA Giovanni De Carolis (23-5, 11 KOs) this Saturday night on October 17th at the DM-Arena, Karlsruhe, Baden-Württemberg, Germany. It wouldn’t be a risky fight for some of the more established and talented 168lb fighters in the division like Arthur Abraham, Badou Jack, James DeGale and Andre Dirrell, but it’s a risky fight for the 20-year-old Feigenbutz, because he’s so raw at this point in his career.
