Super Channel acquired exclusive rights in Canada to air the entire WBSS tournament from MP & Silva, 'n vooraanstaande internasionale media maatskappy wat media regte bied, digitale, tegnologie en borgskap dienste.

WBSSis a revolutionary bracket-style elimination tournament featuring the world’s best boxers and a total of $50 million in prize money. The knockout format of the competition will see the best boxers ultimately compete for the Muhammad Ali Trophy, the greatest prize in boxing. The tournament is organized by newly-founded Comosa AG, a Swiss-registered company with principal owners Highlight Event & Vermaak, Modern Times Group and Team Sauerland. Comosa AG is working in partnership with boxers, promoters and managers around the world, and in alignment with the four major world boxing federations, to create a new global platform for the sport.
The first of its kind tournament, which is planned to take place on an annual basis, kicked off this past September with quarterfinals competition in two divisions, cruiserweight and super middleweight. An expert panel invited the world’s best boxers to compete, namely the top 15-ranked fighters of the four major federations: WBA, WBC, IBF and WBO. The winners of the two semifinals will advance to the championship round in both divisions this May.

EDMONTON, Kanada (Oktober 25, 2017) – The final quarterfinals round match-up of the entertaining World Boxing Super Series (WBSS) tournament is on tap Vrydag when former two-time world light heavyweight champion Juergen Braehmer faces undefeated challenger Rob “Wel gedaan” Brant, airing exclusively in Canada on Super Channel, live from Kongresshalle in Schwerin, Duitsland.
Die “Braehmer vs. Brant” kaart, begin by 2 namiddag. EN / 11 voormiddag. PT,completes live quarterfinals coverage of the WBSS tournament for Canadian boxing fans, exclusively on Canada’s boxing destination network, Super Channel, which acquired the rights in Canada to broadcast the World Boxing Super Series from MP & Silva, 'n vooraanstaande internasionale media maatskappy wat media regte bied, digitale, tegnologie en borgskap dienste.
The 39-year-old Braehmer (48-3, 35 Uitklophoue) is a former World Boxing Association (WBA) en World Boxing Organization (WBO) world light heavyweight champion who has dropped down in weight to compete in the WBSS super middleweight tournament.
The hard-hitting German is 9-1 in world title fights and the skilled southpaw has defeated two world champions, Hector Javier Velazco en Enzo Maccarinelli. Braehmer will also have the advantage of fighting Brant at home.
“I am very excited that this bout is going to take place in my hometown of Schwerin,” Braehmer said. “In kort, I cannot wait to start my journey to win the Ali Trophy. Ek voel goed, top motivated. “I am not underestimating Brant, but I am in this tournament to win it. Op die ouderdom van 39, this is my last chance to achieve something big, and I’m going to take advantage of the opportunity.”
(L-R) — Juergen Braehmer & Rob Brant
Brant (22-0, 15 Uitklophoue), fighting out of Saint Paul, Minnesota, was the only American boxer selected to compete in the WBSS. Unlike Braehmer, egter, Brant has moved up one weight class to participate in the WBSS tournament. He is the reigning North American Boxing Association (Ook) middelgewigkampioen.
“Braehmer is well accomplished and a proven boxer worldwide with star power in his own country,” the 27-year-old underdog Brant noted. “I have no problem going into his backyard for a fight, he is a seeded fighter in this tournament.
“I feel this is a pure crossroads fight containing a proven well-known fighter toward the end of his career against a hot prospect looking to make his name in the sport. I feel confident in winning this fight as does everybody in my training circle. After researching Schwerin, I am excited to compete in such a beautiful and historic city.
“Juergen has done it all, seen it all, but he hasn’t fought me. I am very confident that I will win Vrydag. I have to be sharp mentally, but I feel in better shape than ever in every way. I know it’s a cliché to say that, maar Vrydag the crowd and the world will see what I am talking about.”
The Braehmer-Brant winner will advance to the WBSS semifinals early next year for a world title shot against unbeaten Brit Callum “wêreld” Smith (23-0, 17 Uitklophoue), who last month won a 12-round unanimous decision over previously undefeated Erik Skoglund (26-1, 12 Uitklophoue), of Sweden, in their WBSS quarterfinals match.
Five exciting matches on the “Braehmer vs. Brant” kaart, promoted by Sauerland Event, will air in Canada exclusively on Super Channel. The Braehmer vs. Brant 12-round main event is scheduled to start at 5 namiddag. EN / 2 namiddag. PT.
The 10-round co-feature is a WBSS Substitute Fight between former Interim WBA upper middleweight champion Vincent Feigenbutz (27-2, 23 Uitklophoue), Duitsland, and his Argentinian opponent, Gaston Alejandro Vega (27-11-2, 11 Uitklophoue).
Other undercard bouts scheduled to air on Super Channel include Danish middleweight Abdul Khattab (15-2, 4 Uitklophoue) vs. German rival Ronny Mittag (30-2-1, 15 Uitklophoue) in 'n agt-ronde bout, 2016 Olympic bronze medalist Filip Hrgovic (1-0, 1 KO), Kroasië, vs. Czech Republic heavyweight Pavel “Paul” Sour 6-0, 5 Uitklophoue) in 'n ses-wedstryd, and Danish heavyweight Kem Ljungquist in his pro debut vs. Revaz Karelishvili (8-2, 7 Uitklophoue), Georgië, in a six-round clash.

Cohen Predicting Brant Will Achieve a ‘Changing of the Guard’ Against Former Champ Braehmer on October 27

Skryf 'n opmerking
Greg Cohen, promoter of middleweight/super middleweight contender Rob Brant, says his undefeated fighter is headed for a “changing of the guard” fight against Juergen Braehmer.
Brant (22-0, 15 Uitklophoue) and Braehmer (48-3, 35 Uitklophoue) will meet on Friday October 27, at the Kongresshalle in Schwerin, Duitsland, as part of the World Boxing Super Series’ super middleweight division.
The 38-year-old Braehmer is a long-time light heavyweight world champion, who hasn’t fought at super middleweight in a decade. A star in his native Germany, where the fight is taking place, Braehmer seems to be on the tail end of a distinguished career.
27-jarige Brant, from Saint Paul, Minnesota, is the dark horse in this tournament. With comparatively much fewer professional titles and accomplishments thus far in his career, Brant would seem to be taking a huge risk with his undefeated career.
Nie so, says Cohen.
“We think Robert Brant is going to win this whole tournament,” gesê Cohen. “You have the perfect ‘changing of the guard’ type of fight here: an undefeated young buck against an aging former champion.”
Maar, says Cohen, there are some hidden factors at play in this fight.
“Braehmer is coming down in weight for the fist time in eight or nine years and hasn’t fought since losing his title via TKO stoppage late last year. Intussen, Rob has shown constant improvement in each of his fights over the past few years. He’s a world-class fighter on the verge of becoming a household name.”
So confident was Team Brant that Cohen says they have no problem going into the old lion’s den to fight.

“Rob doesn’t care where they fight. He knows he’s got too much for Braehmer. This fight will be his FORMAL introduction to the boxing world. He’s in top shape and ready for anything coming his way. Na hierdie stryd, Rob Brant will no longer be the secret wild card of the tournament. He’s going to win the whole thing.”
