SOMA MESTER IN THE TOP 8

At the prestigious FISU World Cup of University Combat Sports in Samsun, Turkey, where 17 national boxers will compete, we can cheer for Soma Mester, a student of the Faculty of Economics at UM. Soma, who is competing in the 71 kg weight category, took on Cem Kaya from Turkey on Monday, 26 September.

"I started with success, but it was a tough, hard-fought match. After losing the first two rounds, I managed to turn it around in the third. The referee waved my Turkish opponent off once and he was a man to be reckoned with. The point is that I am in the top 8. My next fight is on Tuesday 27 September against an Irish guy", said Soma Mester.
