Coming Next On The Queensberry Front!
By: Queensberry Promotions
(January 6th) Watch every Queensberry show live worldwide on DAZN.
Frank Warren and his Queensberry Juggernaut clicks straight into gear for 2026 on Saturday when the company promotes for the first time in Germany.
The maiden stop is the once unlikely setting of Oberhausen and the Rudolf Weber Arena with its 11,000 capacity, which will be full to the brim for the homecoming of heavyweight hero Agit Kabayel.
Kabayel, of course, has become the feared man of the division following his win-treble comprising of Arslanbek Makhmudov, Frank Sanchez and Zhilei Zhang while on Riyadh Season duty.
Now he gets to perform on German soil and there is a mighty appetite to see him in action. The 11,000 tickets were snapped up in an instant, with perhaps the added spice of him facing an undefeated Pole in Damian Knyba contributing to the ticket-rush.
Kabayel can force his way right to the front of heavyweight thoughts with a big win on Saturday, live on DAZN, plus he will be a man in demand given his WBC Interim world champion status.
The likes of Daniel Dubois and Lawrence Okolie will be watching very closely as the heavyweight fun and games begin for the year.
Kabayel and Knyba are not the only heavyweights on parade in Dusseldorf. There is a match between the 18-1 German Granit Shala and the 19-1 Croatian Petar Milas for the IBF International title, plus the unbeaten German Kevin Saszik (9-0) will go up against his 11-1 countryman Patrick Schaefer.
And that isn’t all! Daniel Dietz, another German heavy with a 15-1 record, takes on the 9-0 Nigerian Seun Salami, while the Olympic bronze medalist Nelvie Tiafack, from Cologne, will have fight No.3 as a professional.
Then we’ve got David Adeleye back in action ahead of his renewed charge in 2026.
Aside from the heavyweights, the chief support is a special Cuban talent who trains out of Liverpool. Jadier Herrera fights for the WBC Interim world lightweight title against Ricardo Nunez from Panama.
