Groenteman Gets Rematch Against Tsirimokos
Junior welterweight Barry Groenteman will have a chance to avenge a loss last year against Vango "The Greek" Tsirimokos. The bout is scheduled for March 17 at Theater aan de Parade in Den Bosch, Netherlands.
On October 14 last year, the Belgium-resident, Tsirimokos took a close eight round decision over Groenteman. Since that bout, both men haven't had a lot of success. Vango took part in a tournament in Belgium about three weeks after the Groenteman fight. He won by unanimous decision in the semi-final, but was KOed in the second round of the final on the same day. He then was stopped in January against a debuting fighter. Tsirimokos is now 6-4 with 1 KO.
Groenteman (9-7-2, 2 KOs) lost to Hedi Slimani by decision last month in the only fight since the loss to Vango. Groenteman is looking to snap a two-fight losing streak. Despite his seven losses, Groenteman has shown a sturdier chin than has Vango. Barry has never been stopped during his pro career.
The bout is scheduled for six rounds. Groenteman has gone six or more rounds 13 times. Tsirimokos has gone at least as many rounds only four times.

Groenteman to Face Slimani
Barry Groenteman is scheduled to face Hedi Slimani on January 25 at Langemark in West-Vlaanderen, Belgium. The bout is scheduled for eight rounds.
Groenteman (9-6-2, 2 KOs), from Amsterdam, has won two of his last fights although he is coming off of a close decision loss against Vango Tsirimokos in October. Groenteman is the naturally bigger man, fighting mostly at junior welterweight. Slimani has fought mostly as a lightweight.
Slimani (14-2, 8 KOs) is ten months younger and has fought eight fewer rounds than Groenteman. Slimani, a Tunisian who fights out of Belgium, has won six consecutive fights. He is 6-2 in fights against opponents with winning records.

Groenteman to Face New Opponent
Barry Groenteman was originally scheduled to face Innocent Anyanwu on October 14 for the Ben Bril Memorial at Theater Carré in Amsterdam, Netherlands, but Anyanwu pulled out. Groenteman's new opponent is now slated to be Belgian Vango "The Greek" Tsirimokos.
Tsirimokos has far less experience than Anyanwu (21-10-3, 13 KOs), but in some ways, he's a tougher opponent for Groenteman. Anyanwu is 1-10-1 in his last 12 fights, the one win coming against a 2-24 fighter. Tsirimokos is 4-2 with one KO in his career. He lost his last two fights against opponents with a combined 15-2-2 record, but his wins came against opponents with a combined two victories, including the aforementioned fighter Anyanwu beat.
Groenteman (9-5-2, 2 KOs) and Tsirimokos have a common opponent. Both faced Andrea Carbonella and both dropped split decisions. The bout in October is scheduled for eight rounds.

Groenteman Back on Winning Track
Barry Groenteman defeated Samir Boukrara by six-round unanimous decision last night at Wellness Profi Center in Purmerend, Netherlands. This was Barry's first win in his last three fights. In Groenteman's previous two fights, he had suffered a disputed split decision loss to Andrea Carbonello last March and earned a draw with Tarik Madni in October.
Groenteman came away from his fight with Boukrara with a lot of respect for the Moroccan. He told The Jewish Boxing Blog, "He is a dangerous journeyman" and noted that Boukrara threw "very hard punches." But Barry believed he was able to secure the victory because, "My timing, technique, and speed was much better."
Groenteman improves to 8-5-2 with 2 KOs and he's now 5-1 with 2 KOs at the Wellness Profi Center (his lone loss was to Carbonello). Boukrara falls to 12-17-1 after enduring his fifth consecutive loss. Groenteman is scheduled to face Jarkko Putkonen (7-0, 4 KOs) on April 6. The fight will take place in the undefeated 28 year old's home country of Finland. Groenteman will mark Putkonen's toughest opponent of his career. He has never faced a man with a winning record before. Conversely, Groenteman has battled six men with winning records in his career.

Groenteman to Return on January 19
Junior welterweight Barry Groenteman is scheduled to fight Samir Boukrara on January 19 in Amsterdam, Netherlands. The fight is scheduled for six rounds.
Groenteman's 2012 was less than ideal in the ring. After grabbing his fourth straight win, he lost a disputed split decision to Andrea Carbonello. Groenteman (7-5-2, 2 KOs) endured several cancelled fights thereafter, including a much desired rematch with Carbonello. In October, he drew with the capable Tarik Madni. This will mark the seventh straight fight Groenteman will have in his home country.
Boukrara (12-16-1, 2 KOs) is not on the same level as Carbonello or Madni, but he is experienced. The native of Morocco has mostly fought in France. Boukrara, who fights orthodox, is moving up in weight and is eight years older than Groenteman. He hasn't fought since October of 2010 and has lost his last four fights and nine of his last ten. But all nine of those losses were to men with good records. His lone win in that span came against a fighter with a losing record.

The Year That Was
This was the year of the cancelled fight in Jewish boxing. After an impressive win in January and signing with Lou DiBella, Ran Nakash came in overweight in June and was ousted from a South African cruiserweight tournament before throwing a single punch as a result. Yuri Foreman was poised to make his comeback to the ring in November, but his fight was cancelled because of damage inflicted by Hurricane Sandy.
Isaac Chilemba was scheduled to fight on HBO against Zsolt Erdei in September. Erdei injured himself in training and Chilemba's fight against late sub Rayco Saunders was not televised. Dmitriy Salita's proposed scrap with Ismael El Massoudi never came to be. Barry Groenteman and Danny Netzer also experienced fights being nixed.
Cletus Seldin and Mike Brooks both stayed undefeated and Danny Ahrens won his first two pro fights. But Boyd Melson, Zachary Wohlman, and Netzer all suffered their lone career defeat in 2012. Melson and Wohlman not only suffered a loss, but both had a fight resulting in a frustrating draw.
Melson's loss was a close decision against an undefeated prospect who Boyd knocked down twice. His draw came in a fight Melson deserved to win by a wide margin. Wohlman was stopped in his loss against a journeyman. He came in overweight partly because of a hiccup in maintaining his sobriety, according to an interview on KLEAN Radio. His draw was the result of an accidental headbutt and a quirk in the California rules in a fight he was controlling.
Next year looks promising for fans of Jewish boxers. Foreman, Chilemba, Salita, Melson, Seldin, Brooks, and Groenteman have all either signed or been rumored to fight within the first two months of 2013. Foreman is on the comeback trail, Chilemba is close to achieving a title fight and a spot on HBO, and Salita has been consistently stepping up on his way to another title shot. Melson, Seldin, Brooks, Ahrens, and Wohlman are all prospects to watch in the new year. And super flyweight champion Carolina Duer hopes to build off of her four 2012 wins.

Groenteman Wins Dutch Junior Welterweight Title
Barry Groenteman captured the vacant Dutch junior welterweight title today by drawing with Belgian Tarik Madni at Theater Carré in Amsterdam, Netherlands. This is far and away Groenteman's biggest result of his career. By drawing with the Belgian fighter, Groenteman was awarded the Dutch belt. The bout was part of the Ben Bril Memorial boxing event.
Ben Bril was a Dutch Jew who boxed in the 1928 Olympics. His country was banned in 1932 and he boycotted the 1936 Berlin Games because of the Nazis. Bril spent time in Bergen-Belsen during the Holocaust. Bril later became a professional boxing referee and lived to the age of 91.
That Groenteman's performance came at the memorial for a fellow Dutch Jewish boxer makes it all the more sweet. He weighed in at 138.25 pounds for the bout and Madni was 139. Barry's record is now 7-5-2 with 2 KOs. Madni is 17-4-1.

Netzer, Groenteman, and Brooks Update
It appears that Danny "Silent" Netzer's fight on September 8 against Brandon Cook is off. Cook will face 27 fight veteran Ferenc Zold instead. Netzer, a middleweight, is 3-1 with one knockout. Danny last fought on May 24, a unanimous decision win over Jose Luis Doviasa.
Barry Groenteman has a new opponent for his October 15 date at the Theater Carré in Amsterdam, Netherlands.

But Carbonello has backed out of the proposed rematch.
The new opponent is Tarik Madni (16-4, zero KOs). Madni has a fight scheduled for September 15 against a a 1-14-1 fighter. Despite Madni's solid record, the 36-year old Belgian junior welterweight only has two wins against winning opponents. The bout with Barry is currently scheduled for ten rounds; Groenteman has never fought more than six.
Mike "Lefty" Brooks (8-0, 2 KOs) is planning on fighting on November 1 at the same location as his previous two bouts, the Plattduetsche Restaurant in New York. The lightweight body-punching extraordinaire has won two bouts since May after undergoing a seven month layoff. No opponent has been announced, yet. This contest is marked down for six rounds. Brooks went eight in his last fight.
