Herelius and Hernandez Ready for Fight This Saturday Night:
WBA Interim Cruiserweight Champion Steve Herelius (21-1, 12 KOs) and mandatory challenger Yoan Pablo Hernandez (23-1, 12 KOs) today participated in a public work-out in Mulheim. On Saturday night, they will headline Team Sauerland’s big show that also features the clash between IBF Cruiserweight Champion Steve Cunningham and mandatory challenger Enad Licina.
While Hernandez gave the fans an in-depth look at his training with coach Ulli Wegner, Herelius had a little problem to solve. Neither his luggage nor his coach had made it to Mulheim in time.
Without proper training gear, the champion entered the ring in street clothes and asked a fan to join him for some very light shadow boxing. “Right now, he is only missing his clothes and his trainer,” Yoan Pablo Hernandez said. “On Saturday, he will also be missing his belt.”
