FIGHT POSTPONED / NEW DATE TBA! When the biggest boxing event in Kosovo history takes place on August 7 at the Palestra Karagac in Pec, one of the featured bouts will be an interesting clash of young up-and-comers.

 
 

Based in the Czech Republic, Edmund Zefi (8-0, 5 KOs) returns to his birth-country to take on Italian Luigi Alfieri (6-1) for the vacant Universal Boxing Organization™ (UBO) Youth World Welterweight title.

Having entered the paid ranks in the summer of 2018, this will be only the second time 23-year-old “King Edmond” fights in Kosovo as a professional.

Last December, at the same venue, he impressively stopped former UBO Inter-Continental Champion Zoltan Szabo in five rounds.

Alfieri (25), from Vasto by the Adriatic Sea, is arguably the best young Italian at his weight. Last July he scored a split decision over 8-0 fellow prospect Pietro Rossetti in Rome.


 
 

Also on the card, promoted by Arena Ring and Gjocaj Boxing Promotion, will be Germany-based Kamer Maloku fighting in his birth-country for the first time.

Maloku (14-2, 11 KOs) takes on an opponent to be confirmed for the vacant UBO World Super Middleweight title.

Televised by Kosovo T7, the show will additionally have ten undercard bouts involving local talent.
