Sahin,
now a three-time world champion in two
weight-classes, floored Draxler twice in the
second round with massive overhand rights,
prompting referee Thomas Hackenberg to stop the
onslaught as an overjoyed Sahin celebrated with
the crowd of around 1400 fans.
Also on
the line was the World Boxing Federation
Inter-Continental championship, and at
thirty-nine years of age Sahin, from Ludwigsburg
near Stuttgart, is back on top after suffering
her first defeat in the professionals and losing
her world titles last November.

With the
impressive performance, Turkish-born Sahin
improved her career statistics to 21-1-1 (7),
while 20-year-old Draxler drops to 9-13 (1)
after fighting some of the best in the world in
and around her weight division.
The
show, which included one additional title fight
and six undercard match-ups, was staged by Fight
Club Wuppertal.
