The heavyweight fight between Agit Kabayel and Damian Knyba headlined a German card that is now being discussed largely through the lens of officiating. Several fights ended via stoppage under circumstances that drew attention from broadcasters and press row alike. The timing of these decisions matters now, as outcomes influence rankings, titles, and the confidence fighters place in ringside judgment.
Knyba began the main event with urgency, landing uppercuts and hooks around Kabayel’s guard and opening visible damage near Kabayel’s right eye in the first round. Kabayel adjusted in the second, stepping closer and targeting the body, though Knyba continued to work behind his jab and maintain control. In the third, Kabayel landed a series of right hands. Moments later, the referee intervened. Knyba was standing and responsive, prompting immediate debate over whether the fight had reached a necessary conclusion.
When Outcomes Are Clear, and When They Are Not
In the co-feature, Petar Milas stopped Granit Shala in the tenth round. Unofficial cards varied, with DAZN Germany and sections of the German press row having Shala ahead entering the final round. Milas had increased pressure across the later stages, and two right hooks produced knockdowns that ended the fight. The finish itself was not disputed, even as earlier scoring remained a point of contrast.
Roman Fury halted Kevin Greenwood in the fourth round after sustained control. Fury’s left hand and body work limited Greenwood’s attempts to close distance. The referee stepped in during a prolonged exchange, citing accumulation and imbalance.
Records Updated, Confidence Tested
Elsewhere, Nelvie Tiafack stopped Piotr Cwik in the second round following a knockdown and unanswered punches. Kevin Saszik ended his fight with late replacement Zwart in the opening round after a clean right hand.
A six-round heavyweight contest between Daniel Dietz and Seun Salami finished level on the referee’s card, with neither fighter establishing sustained control. In middleweight action, Gleb Bakshi recorded a first-round stoppage after landing a left hook following an early exchange.
The night closed with further debate when Oronzo Birardi stopped Milosav Savic in the fourth round. The sequence included punches as Savic was on one knee. The referee allowed the result to stand.
The official records will show clear winners. The quieter concern left behind is human and practical: fighters invest months in preparation and rely on consistent judgment when momentum shifts. On this card, the conversation has moved beyond who won to how those decisions were reached, and whether similar moments will be handled differently next time.
