EC Box Promotion in Hamburg, Germany, have announced the fourth of their Evil Fight Nights for June 11. This one will be a dinner show at the Braakamp in Hamburg with cruisers Alexander Alekseev and Kai Kurzawa on top along with heavyweight Michael Wallisch.

Kurzawa will take on Armin Dollinger in a rematch. Dollinger stopped Kurzawa in a big upset back 2008 and Kai, promoted by Sauerland for most of his career, was semi-retired until returning with EC late 2010.

Alekseev, formerly with Universum, was regarded as a can´t miss prospect but lost not just once but twice and is now on the comeback trail. He looked rusty and a bit gunshy against DeAndrey Abron on the last Evil Fight Night but has all the talent in the world and should be able to make it back.

Wallisch, 7-0, won the Int´l German title last time out with a points win over Yakub Saglam but still early and Michael has a lot to learn.

The Evil Fight Nights are sponsored by the Evil Energy drink, a company owned by promoter Erol Ceylan.
