Boxing world champion title is held by professional boxer Baraou
In a significant development in the world of boxing, German boxer Abass Baraou has been promoted to the World Boxing Association (WBA) World Champion in the junior middleweight division. The interim title win by Baraou, against the previously undefeated Cuban boxer Yoenis Tellez, was confirmed by a spokesperson for the Wasserman Boxing stable, citing a letter from the WBA.
The promotion took place in Orlando, USA, last month, where Baraou, who commutes between Oberhausen and Berlin, secured the interim junior middleweight title after twelve rounds. The victory was a unanimous decision by the referees, marking Baraou's second interim world championship.
The interim title is a temporary solution when a boxer cannot defend the actual world title for various reasons. In this case, the reigning champion Terence Crawford switched weight classes, opening up the opportunity for Baraou to step up and claim the interim title.
Baraou, who is 30 years old, expressed his happiness about the promotion but stated that no special celebrations are planned. He, however, mentioned that he will celebrate after the next title defense. The details of his first title defense as the full WBA super welterweight champion have not yet been officially announced by the WBA.
The interim title win by Baraou was a significant achievement, not only for him but also for German boxing. With this promotion, Baraou becomes an official full-fledged titleholder, adding another feather to the cap of German boxing.
In conclusion, Abass Baraou's interim title win against Yoenis Tellez in the United States has led to his promotion to the WBA World Champion in the junior middleweight division. The German boxer, who has already been the interim world champion, will now prepare for his first title defense as the full WBA super welterweight champion.
