Leonie Mueller represented Germany in the 2^nd World Olympic Boxing Qualifying Event in Bangkok, Thailand and she moved back to the light middleweight (70kg) which is the best for her.

The 2023 European Games bronze medallist Irina Schoenberger lost to Ilvy Scheibe at the women’s middleweight (75kg) on Day1 but this is a Round Robin category and she worked better against a youngster, Sara Glaeser in the second session.

Nordrhein-Westfalen’s Ali Zamanov switched from Azerbaijan to Germany and he opened his campaign well enough against Mustafa Erakshi at the men’s featherweight (57kg).

Ousainou Hansen and Assan Hansen both are participating at the light welterweight (63.5kg) in Halle and the brothers joined the semi-finals after their victories, but the 20-year-old new sensation, Denis Bril is also in the last four.

The Paris Olympian Magomed Schachidov was confident in the Round of 16 at the men’s light middleweight (71kg) but the 30-year-old top boxer suffered an unexpected loss to Chukwuka Okah-Ezeokeke in the quarter-finals on Day2.

Nikita Putilov had a much stronger performance in the second competition day and the super heavyweight (+92kg) boxer defeated Delil Yazgan, while the Ulaanbaatar Boxing Cup winner Amin Younes Ouachou also dominated his fight today.
