WBO heavyweight champion Lamon Brewster recently proved his belonging to the elite of the division by scoring an impressive victory in Germany over German Albanian Luan Krasniqi. \n \n"I knew I had to knock him out to win," Brewster said in an interview with the website Fighters-of-faith.com, hinting at biased judging and the fact that the bout took place on the memorial day of German boxing legend Max Schmeling. "With God's help, I managed to do it." \n \nBrewster noted that Krasniqi had prepared very well for the bout, so Lamon had to give 100% to win. "I took more punches than I should have because I really wanted to knock him out," Brewster said. "I managed to do it in the end. Now everyone knows that I am a true champion and an example for all other fighters. I proved that I am ready to go anywhere and fight anyone." \n \nLamon agreed with the opinion that the German referee helped Krasniqi at the end of the eighth round, when he was effectively knocked out: "When he helped him get up, I decided the fight was over. The referee decided otherwise, but it didn't matter to me - I was set on a knockout from the very first second of the fight." \n \nWhen asked whom he would like to fight next, Brewster replied: "We'll see if Vitali Klitschko gets past Hasim Rahman. If Klitschko is really good, then he will be next, and I will take the WBC belt."
