By Scott Gilfoid: Former World Boxing Association 168lb champion Vincent Feigenbutz (24-2, 24 KOs) defeated an over-matched Guillermo Ruben Andino (10-2, 5 KOs) by a 6th round knockout on Saturday night in Germany.
By Scott Gilfoid: If you watched last Saturday’s fight between interim WBA super middleweight champion Vincent Feigenbutz (21-2, 19 KOs) and #14 WBA Giovanni De Carolis (24-6, 12 KOs), you will have noticed that the final fight sequence was marred by De Carolis nailing Feigenbutz with a right hand to the back of his head and badly hurting him.
The shot badly hurt Feigenbutz, causing him to stagger forward and turn his back on De Carolis. At this point, De Carolis tagged Feigenbutz with another big punch to the back of the head that sent him staggering into the ropes. De Carolis then bombarded Feigenbutz with a small flurry of unanswered punches until referee Gustavo Padilla stopped the fight at 0:32 of the 11th round in their fight at the Baden Arena in Offenburg, Germany.
By Scott Gilfoid: Well, just as I suspected would happen; #14 WBA fringe contender Giovanni De Carolis (24-6, 12 KOs) stopped the incredibly green 20-year-old interim WBA super middleweight champion Vincent Feigenbutz (21-2, 19 KOs) in a 11th round TKO on Saturday night in their clash at the Baden Arena in Offenburg, Germany.
De Carolis, 31, staggered Feigenbutz in the 11th round, and then unloaded on him until referee Gustavo Padilla stepped in and halted the fight at 0:32 of the round.
The first half of the fight was controlled by De Carolis, who was able to use his superior size to blast away at a frightened looking Feigenbutz with right hands. Feigenbutz looked both afraid and totally clueless. He just wouldn’t throw any punches and had a confused look on his face like he didn’t know how to solve De Carolis’ simple fighting style.

Vincent Feigenbutz (21-1, 19 KOs) and his opponent Giovanni De Carolis (23-6, 11 KOs) both performed a public workout today ahead of their vacant WBA World Super Middleweight title fight on Saturday night at the Baden-Arena in Offenburg, Germany.
In front of close to 800 spectators at the famous Europa-Park amusement centre in Rust, the battling super middleweights took to the ring to give fans an indication of what they can expect from their hotly anticipated World Championship rematch.
By Scott Gilfoid: Interim WBA super middleweight champion Vincent Feigenbutz (21-1, 19 KOs) will be looking to leave no doubts about his superior talent this Saturday night on January 9th against #14 WBA fringe contender Giovanni De Carolis (23-6, 11 KOs) at the Baden-Arena in Offenburg, Germany.
It’s a downer that the 20-year-old Feigenbutz is having to fight De Carolis again period, because he already beat him last October in Germany, but De Carolis and many of his loyal boxing fans bellyached about the decision and this led to a rematch.
Feigenbutz beat De Carolis by the scores of 115-113, 114-113 and 115-113. I was good with the 115-113 score, as Feigenbutz clearly demonstrated that he was the better fighter of the two in the second half of the contest.
Vincent Feigenbutz (21-1, 19 KOs) has said he will ‘leave no questions unanswered’ in his interim WBA World Super Middleweight title rematch with Giovanni De Carolis (23-6, 11 KOs) on Saturday night at the Baden-Arena in Offenburg, Germany.
By Scott Gilfoid: Interim WBA World super middleweight champion Vincent Feigenbutz (21-1, 19 KOs) will be defending his title against #14 WBA Giovanni De Carolis (23-6, 11 KOs) in a rematch in two weeks from now on January 9th at the Baden-Arena, in Offenburg, Germany.
Feigenbutz, 20, previously defeated Italy’s De Carolina by a 12 round unanimous decision last October by the scores of 115-113, 114-113, and 115-113. However, there was so much controversy surrounding the outcome of the fight that the two fighters will have to do it again.
Hopefully this will be the last time they have to face each other. De Carolis, 31, knocked Feigenbutz down in the 1st round of their fight last October. De Carolina controlled the early rounds of the fight, but Feigenbutz definitely came on in the second half of the contest to get the better of De Carolis.
