Seferi Defends WBO Euro Crown on Alekseev-Arslan Bill

Nuri Seferi (31-6, 19KOs) will defend the WBO European cruiserweight title on May 11th at the EWS Arena in Goeppingen, Germany. The card will be headlined by the European cruiserweight title clash between champion Alexander Alekseev and veteran Firat Arslan.

Seferi returns from a serious leg injury to his shin. The opponent for May has not been finalized.

“For three months after my surgery, I was unable to do anything, but I am very glad that the healing process has not lasted any longer. During the past few weeks, I found myself back in training and got the green light from my doctor and I am looking forward to making the third defense of my title,” Seferi said.
