At the General Assembly of European Boxing Union, EBU, in Riga, Latvia, was Petr Stucki, Swiss-Boxing, elected to the new president.
The medical careness and the necessary of MRI was theme on the assembly.
Next years Assembly will be hold in Malta, after MBA asked to host the General Assembly 2023.
Box-Manager Peter Hanraths (72) zieht sich aus dem operativen Boxgeschäft zurück. Er möchte seine Zeit zukünftig nur noch der Familie widmen. Zuletzt hatte er noch Jürgen Brähmer, Araik Marutjan und den EC Boxstall beraten. Nun ist endgültig Schluss. Zum Abschied gab es von Jürgen Brähmer ein ganz besonderes Geschenk: Einen Mini für Mallorca. Dort lebt Hanraths die meiste Zeit des Jahres. „Ich bin wirklich gerührt. Damit hätte ich im Leben nicht gerechnet“, sagt Hanraths zu seinem neuen Flitzer. Seinen Schützling Marutjan weiß Hanraths bei Brähmer gut aufgehoben.
„Jürgen hat sich in den letzten Jahren toll entwickelt.
Als Sportler, als Mensch und vor allem als Trainer. Er wird Araik nach oben führen,
da bin ich mir sicher.“ Seit 2016 betreut Brähmer zudem Tyron Zeuge, den er bereits
zu Weltmeisterehren geführt hat und die Nachwuchshoffnung Denis Radovan.
Peter Hanraths, der als Amateur selbst mehr als 100 Kämpfe bestritt, war 17 Jahre
lang Geschäftsführer der einstigen Weltmeisterschmiede Universum Box-Promotion.
Er gilt als der Entdecker der Klitschko-Brüder, „Tiger“ Dariusz Michalczewski, Felix
Sturm und eben jenem Jürgen Brähmer, der ihn zum Abschied so überrascht. „Ich
kenne Peter eigentlich mein ganzes Sportlerleben und habe ihm viel zu verdanken.
Wegen ihm hatte ich 1999 bei Universum unterschrieben. Und auch den Neustart bei
Sauerland hat er eingefädelt“, so Brähmer. Dass Hanraths noch immer hohes
Ansehen genießt zeigte sich zuletzt beim 50. Jubiläumskampf von Brähmer im März
vergangenen Jahres in Neubrandenburg. Der Manager lud die alten Weggefährten
ein und die kamen: Dariusz Michalczewski, Carlos Gomez, Artur Grigorian, Stipe
Drews und viele weitere Wegbegleiter. Zukünftig wird Hanraths dann nur noch als
Zuschauer Boxveranstaltungen besuchen. „Wenn es die Zeit zulässt, werde ich
natürlich auch weiterhin Boxveranstaltungen besuchen. Boxen hat mich mein Leben
lang begleitet und ich fühle mich dem Sport und den Sportlern eng verbunden“, sagt
Hanraths.
Kubrat Pulev (23-1, 12 KOs) has predicted a strong and spectacular victory for Bulgaria when he faces former World Champion Samuel Peter (36-5, 29 KOs) in his long awaited homecoming fight on December 3 in Sofia.
The current European Champion has completed his preparations in Berlin, and will fly home to Bulgaria later today ahead of his WBA Intercontinental title challenge, which will take place in front of 15,000 fans at the Arena Armeec.
Pulev says he is pleased with his preparations, and is eager to inspire a new generation of Bulgarian boxers when he steps through the ropes on Saturday night. We caught up with ‘The Cobra’ following one of his final sparring sessions.
How have your preparations been for the fight with Samuel Peter?
‘’We have been working hard and I am very happy with my preparations. It is now in the final phase and we have just completed our sparring. I’ve had three sparring partners, including one from Belarus who is World Champion in chess boxing. No one has been able to beat him for seven years! I can deal with him in the ring, but I have no chance against him when it comes to chess!’’
This will be your fourth fight with coach Ulli Wegner in your corner, how has he helped you to develop?
‘’Mr Wegner has a great eye for detail and a tremendous knowledge of boxing. Together we work hard to eliminate any small errors and to improve my strengths.’’
Do you believe Ulli Wegner is the right man to lead you to World title success?
‘’Yes, I do. He has great experience and has helped turn many boxers into World Champions. Now we have gotten to know each other better it has become easier to work together, and in future our partnership will only improve.
There has been a lot of excitement since it was announced you would be fighting in Sofia, how important for you is the support of the Bulgarian people?
‘’For years, it has been my dream to fight at home in Bulgaria, and in just a few days this dream will come true. I want to make my countrymen proud, and to give all the Bulgarian people, who couldn’t afford to travel abroad to see my fights, the chance to come and watch me live in Sofia, my hometown and the capital of my lovely country.’’
Do you hope this will be the first of many fights in Bulgaria?
‘’Yes, I do hope this boxing gala is just the first of many more in Bulgaria. For me, boxing is a beautiful sport, which should be used to help educate. It’s an act of pure beauty, and I hope this beauty will win the hearts of as many children as possible, and that we can inspire them to start training, and to work hard and sacrifice so they can become the next generation of champions.’’
Finally, do you have a prediction for the fight?
‘’My only prediction is a strong and spectacular victory for Bulgaria!’’
