brewster556677KIEL, GERMANY – Former heavyweight champion “Relentless” Lamon Brewster is promising his best performance of the decade when he steps into the ring tomorrow night against Michael Sprott in Kiel, Germany. Both fighters tipped the scale at 234 and looked in prime physical condition.

The fight, which is scheduled for eight rounds, will be Brewster’s first as a member of the Sauerland Event stable. The main event will be the IBF middleweight title defense of Arthur Abraham against Lajuan Simon.

“I feel ready,” says Lamon Brewster, 34-4 (30 knockouts). “I just can’t wait to get in there already and do my thing. I have seen lots of tape on Sprott. He’s a game fighter but he has never been hit with the speed and ability that I’m bringing to the table.”

Former British heavyweight champion Sprott, 31-12 (16 knockouts), has scored several impressive wins, most notably a third round knockout of 2000 Olympic gold medalist Audley Harrison in 2007.

Brewster, a native of Indianapolis but now residing in Los Angeles, California, won the WBO heavyweight title when he knocked out Wladimir Klitschko in five rounds in 2004.

Brewster has fought twice before in Germany. In 2005, Brewster traveled to Hamburg for his third championship defense, winning in nine rounds. It is his second trip, a rematch against the current IBF and WBO champion Klitschko, that has brought him increased motivation heading into this bout.

“It feels great to be back in Germany. Everyone has been really receptive to me over here. Some of my biggest fans are here. This is where I lost to Wladimir Klitschko and I’m out for revenge. Once I take care of business here, I’m coming for Klitschko.

“I’m finally injury free for the first time since 2000. Now the world will get to see the best of Lamon Brewster.”
