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.

Feigenbutz wants Sturm fight before December

Feigenbutz wants Sturm fight before December

WBA interim super middleweight champion Vincent Feigenbutz (20-1, 19 KOs) is hoping to get a fight against No.3 WBA contender Felix Sturm (39-5-3, 18 KOs) before December, which is when the 36-year-old former middleweight champion Sturm will be fighting a rematch against WBA 168lb “regular” champion Fedor Chudinov (13-0, 10 KOs) in December.

Feigenbutz wants a chance to chop Sturm down before then and send him into retirement. If Chudinov gets the fight before him, then Feigenbutz may lose his chance of finishing Sturm off and putting him out of his misery. Sturm lost to Chudinov by a 12 round split decision.

Feigenbutz destroys Reynoso, Fedor Chudinov next

Once beaten 19-year-old German knockout artist Vincent Feigenbutz (20-1, 19 KOs) made easy work of 38-year-old Mauricio Reynoso (15-2-1, 11 KOs) in destroying him in three rounds last Saturday night to capture the interim WBA World super middleweight title at the Gerry Weber Stadium in Halle, Germany. Feigenbutz battered Reynoso with power shots until dropping him in the 3rd round with a hard left to the body. The fight was then stopped at 1:21 of the round by referee Giuseppe Quartarone.

With this victory, Feigenbutz will next be fighting for the world title against WBA World super middleweight champion Fedor Chudinov (13-0, 10 KOs) later this year or perhaps early next year.
