(SEPT 5) Team Sauerland staged a media work-out in Stockholm yesterday to present the future of Swedish boxing – five unbeaten talents who are determined to bring home titles.

At Djurgårdens Boxing Club, promoter Nisse Sauerland officially announced the signing of Klara Svensson (10-0, 4 KOs), who joins a hard-hitting Swedish line-up that already features WBC Youth Light Heavyweight Champion Erik Skoglund (17-0, 9 KOs), KO king Oscar Ahlin (7-0, 7 KOs), 2012 London Olympian Anthony Yigit (4-0, 1 KO) and heavyweight hopeful Otto Wallin (1-0, 1 KO). “There are exciting times ahead for Swedish boxing,” Sauerland said. “Our five Nordic Fight Night talents will lift the sport to new heights and win a lot of titles for Sweden. We have big plans for all of them.”

Svensson is thrilled to fight under the promotional banner of Europe´s biggest boxing promoters. “I am very happy to have signed with Team Sauerland,” she said. “It feels great to be their first-ever Swedish female fighter!

“Thanks to their network, their coaches and facilities I will get superb training and perfect sparring opportunities. I am very excited and can´t wait to get started.

“The Nordic Fight Night and the long-term deal with Viasat Sweden will give me a great platform to show my skills to a big audience in Sweden… on a regular basis!

“I am really looking forward to having big fights in Scandinavia so close to my home.”
