Former WBO middleweight champion Armand Krajnc promoted his 11th show and it was, of course, billed as Armand Boxing Promotion 11. The event was staged at the plush Jazy's Hotel in Gothenburg (Sweden).

 

Australian-Swede Linn Sandstrom, 9-3-3 (2 KOs), triumphed in the main event with a unanimous 10-round points over brave but outclassed Bolivian Carla Camila Campos, 6-3 (5 KOs) and 23 years old. It was scored 100-90 on all cards. Sandstrom, 32, dominated the fight but didn't appear to hurt Campos. There was a WBA title at stake but as for which one, it really depended on who you asked, but from the ring they announced it as for the International title.

 

Veteran former WBC junior middleweight champion Mikaela Lauren, 33-7-1 (14 KOs), drew with Newcastle, England's Jordan Barker-Porter, 8-3-1 (1 KO), over six hard fought rounds. It was scored 58-56 both ways and 57-57. Barker-Porter, who at 30 is 18 years younger than Lauren, landed the with the cleaner punches but also instigated most of the holding and wrestling on the inside. Lauren, as brave and tough as she is, showed that time waits for no one.

 

Undercard fight of the night was between cruiserweight John Salomonsson, 3-0, and hard punching Czech Martin Sedlak, 5-4 (5 KOs). Salomonsson, who like his opponent is 34 years old, had some problems early on but closed out strongly for a unanimous points win on scores of 38-37 twice and 39-36.

Heavyweight Brage Lange Hansen, 3-0, stopped local hero Aleksandr Bolsanovs, 1-1. Hansen, much taller than his opponent, caught Bolsanovs with his heavy right several times but Bolsanovs kept trying until hurt and floored in the third. He got up but was taking a beating along the ropes and it was stopped.
