Jafaru achieved early success. In the second round, he cornered Kiwitt and unloaded in the first minute, then ended the round with Kiwitt shot as the bell sounded. The third followed a similar pattern, with Jafaru pinning Kiwitt against the ropes and forcing him to work on the defensive for a long time.

Kiwitt calmed down the fight in the fourth quarter, finding space and landing more consistently before Jafaru rallied again behind schedule. The pace changed back and forth in the middle rounds. Jafaru defeated Kiwitt in the fifth and most of the sixth round, but Kiwitt finished the sixth round strongly, causing Jafaru’s nose to bleed just before the bell.

From the seventh moment, Kiwitt’s control became more even. He kept Jafaru on the defensive in the seventh and took a competitive ninth period where both players battled with action. Jafaru regained ground briefly in the tenth, pushing Kiwitt into the ropes and landing enough to take the round, but the final frames swung back towards the champion.

Kiwitt stepped up the action in the eleventh and finished the cleaner job when Jafaru showed perceptible damage, bleeding from the nose and mouth towards the end. The decision was made by Kiwitt after twelve rounds.

On the heavyweight undercard, Viktor Faust needed just thirty seconds to stop Todorche Tsvetkov. Faust started with a quick action and finished with a right to the body, after which he knocked Tsvetkow to the ground.

Super middleweight Alexander Chupil scored in the first round to defeat Ajemi Amani Jr. after dropping him twice. The first knockdown came from a left early in the round, followed by a right uppercut that knocked Amani down again. His corner kick stopped the fight due to a shoulder injury.

Middleweight Robert Toman stopped Gregorio Dominguez after two rounds. Toman released Dominguez behind schedule in the second, and a corner kick ruled that Dominguez would not be ejected after the third period.

Can Goek won a six-round decision over Robin Zamora in a southpaw bout. Goek controlled the exchanges with counter punches throughout the first three rounds and finished strongly in the sixth to secure a clear decision.

Christian Patzke and Dean Porter fought to a four-round draw. Porter outplayed Patzke early on with counters, while Patzke used his range more effectively in the second half as Porter slowed down.

In the super welterweight division, Darian Yasar defeated Menal Topcu in the sixth round. Yasar dropped Topcu in the 3rd period and gradually wore him down before the referee waved off the combination as Topcu went down again.

Featherlight heavyweight Ekin Erol scored a first-round stoppage on Hayden Sherriff, dropping him twice before the fight was stopped.

The event announcer was Ingo Rohrbach.

“Greedy Belly [Fury] will speak now and say weak chin, Greedy Belly get out. AJ wins [against Fury], [he will] knock him out.”

“We predicted round two but I don’t think we foresaw that. That was chaos. He doesn’t see the uppercut coming and finds himself on the floor without knowing how he got there.

“The second one he did see it coming and he was able to clench down on the jaw. He got up and then the experience that he has he used tonight because he tied him up. Against Andy Ruiz he didn’t know what he was doing and didn’t know how to do that, but tonight he did.

“He showed once again there is no quit. To be that hurt in the first round and get up, that’s the recoveries of power. People talk about your chin, but it’s not, it’s the level of fitness that gets you up from the floor.
