Cagri Ermis New WBF Middleweight World ChampGermany’s Cagri Ermis reached the, at least so far, highlight of his
up-and-down career on Saturday night when he captured the vacant World Boxing Federation (WBF) World Middleweight title by defeating Portuguese Vitor Sa at the Braamkamp 1 arena in Hamburg.
With clever boxing from the outside, Ermis controlled the fight with sharp
and well-timed punches from the get-go, and rarely allowed Sa to get close enough to do any damage. The local man fought a very disciplined fight, and while game veteran Sa never stopped trying he was outboxed and
outmaneuvered by his younger foe.
Ermis was originally to challenge former Champion Karama Nyilawila for the
title last December, but first the bout was postponed when the German got
injured, and later the title was declared vacant when Nyilawila, overdue a
defense, decided not to honor his contract and instead take a non-title
bout, so Ermis did well to adjust to his new co-challenger.
After twelve interesting rounds, all three judges had Ermis a clear winner
by scores of 120-109 (Artur Ellensohn), 120-108 (Zbigniew Lagosz) and
117-111 (Timo Habighorst). Referee was Frank Michael Maass.
The new world champion improved his professional record to a deceivingly
modest 13-10-2 (4), while Vitor Sa dropped to 26-7 (5). The fight
headlined a massive show promoted by EC Boxpromotion.
