WBA super middleweight champion Tyron Zeuge (22-0-1, 12 KOs) scored a second round TKO over Isaac Ekpo (32-4, 25 KOs) on Saturday at the Inselparkhalle Arena in Hamburg, Germany. Zeuge dropped Ekpo with a hard combination in round two and the bout was stopped by referee Mark Nelson. Time was :23.
The bout was a rematch. In their first clash in March of last year, Zeuge won a technical decision after a cut caused by a head clash and a rematch was granted. This time no controversy.
Former European light heavyweight champion Karo Murat (32-3-1, 21 KOs) scored a twelfth round TKO over Baltimore fighter Travis Reeves (15-3-2, 7 KOs). A barrage of punches prompted a referee’s stoppage.
Unbeaten super welterweight Sebastian Formella (18-0, 9 KOs) scored a seventh round TKO over Angelo Frank (13-2, 9 KOs). Formella dropped Frank in round seven and Frank’s corner threw in the towel during Formella’s follow up barrage.
