On Saturday, May 27, the professional boxing event ABP Fight Night 9 will be organized in Malmö. The organizer is Armand Krajnc - promoter and former middleweight world champion. A press conference for the event will be held on Wednesday, May 24 at 1 p.m., at the Quality Hotel View in Malmö. In place are Armand Krajnc and Linn Sandström from Växjö, who at the gala will have a match to become interim WBA super flyweight champion.

After last year's successful boxing gala in Ystad, Armand Krajnc is now organizing a large professional boxing gala in Malmö.
Some of the bookings on the men's side are former European champion and Olympic boxer Anthony Yigit and home boxers Simon Henriksson and Mohammed Abdulrahim.

But the big draw will be the SM match in cruiserweight, where Samo Jangirov will defend the belt against challenger Goran Babic.

The main match on the women's side is between rising star Linn Sandström and Johana Zinuga from Venezuela.

- For the Swedish sports audience, Linn Sandström is best known as an elite table tennis player for BTK Frej.
But since 2020 she is a professional boxer after discovering the sport in Australia, where she has been living for a few years. It will be a packed evening, says Armand Krajnc.

Press meeting
Time: May 24 at 1 p.m.
Location: Quality Hotel View, Malmö
Med Vänlig hälsning
