Danish cruiserweight Ditlev Rossing (13-0) reported on social media earlier this week that he is now out of the contract with Danish Fight Night and promoter Mogens Palle. According to Rossing the contract expired September 21.

Meanwhile, Palle told Ekstrabladet that the fight between Rossing and South African Thomas Ooshuizen, that was set for January 7 in Brondby, was off due to the COVID-19 related travel restrictions for travelers from some countries in southern Africa. Previously a fight against Constantin Bejenaru that was set for November 5 fell through also due to Covid-19. 

As it is now Rossing is off the show that will go ahead with Enock Poulsen vs Frank Petitjean for the vacant EBU super lightweight title and Sarah Mahfoud defending the IBF female featherweight title against Nina Meinke
