WBA#12, WBC#15 light heavyweight Tommy Karpency (19-1-1  11kos) is set to face WBO#2, WBC#3 Karo Murat (21-0  13kos) for Murat's WBO Inter-Continental Light Heavyweight Title on May 1st at EWE-Arena in Oldenburg, Germany.  The clash will serve as the televised co-feature under the much anticipated WBO Cruiserweight Title between champion Marco 'Kapt'n' Huck (28-1) and American challenger WBO#5 Brian 'The Beast' Minto (34-3).  A winner of eight straight, Karpency, just 23 years old, aims to upset the undefeated Murat in the scheduled 12 rounder promoted by Sauerland Event.

Former IBF Middleweight Title Challenger Billy Lyell (21-8) returns to the ring on Friday May 7 at the Waterfront Place Hotel in Morgantown, West Virginia.  Since losing to IBF champ Sebastian Sylvester (33-3) on Jan. 30th, Lyell has shed pounds and will campaign at super welterweight.  He will face veteran super welter Martinus Clay (13-24) in the eight round main event.  The six bout card is being promoted by Simons' Promotions, and tickets can be obtained by calling Steve Simons at (304)290-0291.
