Timo Schwarzkopf Aims to Upset Harlem Eubank's Homecoming in Brighton
German junior welterweight, Timo Schwarzkopf, with a record of 22 wins and 5 losses, is determined to pull off an upset as he faces the undefeated Harlem Eubank in Brighton, England, this Friday night. The showdown between Eubank and Schwarzkopf takes center stage in a Wasserman Boxing event, featuring world-class super middleweight Lerrone Richards and the rising heavyweight Roman Fury. In addition, dangerous Kazak fighter Sultan Zaurbek is on the hunt for a world title shot, and there's the debut of international amateur star Tom Welland, alongside the return of local hero Tommy Welch, son of the beloved heavyweight, Scott Welch. Brighton is set to come alive to support Harlem Eubank (18-0), marking a significant moment for the Eubank family, as the last time one of their own headlined in their hometown was Chris Eubank Sr. in the early 1990s. However, Timo Schwarzkopf, currently considered a 6/1 underdog with Ladbrokes, is eager to spoil the homecoming party. He issued a stern warning to Eubank at the final press conference, declaring, "Eubank doesn't scare me; Harlem, I am coming for you." Notably, Schwarzkopf has already achieved a substantial British upset by defeating ex-champion Junior Witter in 2013. At the final press conference, the 32-year-old Schwarzkopf exuded confidence, stating, "I am thankful for this chance to prove myself and to show what I can do. I believe I am superior to all of Harlem's previous opponents and have faced stronger opponents in my career. My last fight was against Miquel Vasquez, a formidable opponent. In contrast, Harlem's last opponent was not at the same level." As the tension builds for this highly-anticipated battle, the boxing world is watching with bated breath to see if Timo Schwarzkopf can indeed upset the odds and put a dent in Harlem Eubank's undefeated record.
