Arslan defends cruiserweight
crown with decision over "Ding-a-Ling"
Wilson
By Marc Abrams
Firat Arslan made the second
defense of the WBA Cruiserweight title with
a decisive unanimous decision over Darnell "Ding
a Ling" Wilson in Stuttgart, Germany.
The southpaw Arslan was effective
in throwing short combinations while Wilson
did not seem to havwe much fire or tactic to
mount his own sustained offense.
Scores were 117-111 on all
cards for Arslan, 199 1/2 lbs of Rottweil, Germany
and is now 29-3-1. Wilson, 199 1/2 lbs was a
dubious choice to get the title oppurtunity
considering he dropped his last bout to BJ Flores,
is now 23-7-3.
