Nadjib Mohammedi (France)
WBF Intercontinental Light Heavyweight Champion
Anyone who gives Nathan Cleverly a hard tussle on two days notice, is worth keeping an eye on. Thus, by subsequently opening 2011 with a dominant performance over George Tevdorashvili to clinch the WBF Intercontinental title, Frenchman Mohammedi underlined his potential. Although getting stopped under dubious circumstances in Russia by Dmitry Sukhotsky in October, Nadjib came back well with a decision over veteran Ayittey Powers just a month later – and certainly proved to be the leading newcomer on the WBF stage for bigger things.
Congratulations, Nadjib!
