Germany’s 95-year heavyweight drought is on the verge of collapsing, and it all comes down to Agit Kabayel. The WBC interim champion finds himself perfectly positioned to rewrite national boxing history, benefiting from the seismic breakup of the undisputed heavyweight division. The path to the world title has cleared dramatically for Kabayel, who is now the organization’s top mandatory contender. The recent move by Oleksandr Usyk to relinquish his WBO belt has instantly shifted the pressure onto the WBC. The body must now determine whether to elevate its interim champion, Kabayel, to the full world title. A definitive ruling could arrive before Kabayel’s monumental January 10 “Homecoming” event at the Rudolf Weber-Arena in Oberhausen. Kabayel’s Path to the WBC title Should the WBC follow the WBO’s recent example in elevating its interim champion—as it did with Fabio Wardley—Kabayel would secure the coveted green-and-gold belt immediately. Even if Usyk retains the WBC title for now, Kabayel remains the official frontrunner for a massive super-fight at home in Germany by summer 2026. This would deliver the country a sporting spectacle not witnessed in decades. The immediate hurdle for Kabayel is his January 10 bout against Poland’s Damian Knyba. Although Kabayel holds the interim championship, WBN understands the Kabayel vs Knyba contest has special dispensation to be for the interim strap. This is because Knyba’s WBC ranking, currently 38th, places him well outside the required top 15 list for a title defense. For WBN, this could mean WBC would hold off on any official belt elevation until after the Homecoming event is concluded. Fabio Wardley – New WBO Champion In the meantime, addressing the WBO’s decision to crown a new champion, Kabayel congratulated the new titleholder. “All the best, Fabio Wardley – he truly deserves it,” the 33-year-old told sport.de. He also commended the organization’s swift action, noting: “It’s cool that the WBO has also stood up for its athlete, that they are doing their job.” However, Kabayel expressed caution about his own sanctioning body. He admits he doesn’t know “whether the WBC will be strictly on top of things, declare mandatory status (i.e., compel Usyk to fight Kabayel, ed.) and exert pressure. We don’t know that.” For now, the focus is strictly on the immediate challenge. “I’m concentrating on January 10 right now,” Kabayel stated. “If it turns out to be a world championship fight, all the better for German boxing. And if not, then not. I have to win either way. Everything else comes after that.” A Homecoming Event to Remember The January 10 fight is a blockbuster DAZN-Queensberry co-promoted “Homecoming” event. It is proudly being called “the biggest on German soil since the Klitschko era.” Kabayel’s high-profile return is designed to set the stage for potentially luring undisputed champion Usyk to the region for a massive clash in late 2026. Queensberry Promotions’ Frank Warren echoed the gravity of the event: “Our aim is to bring the biggest nights in boxing back to Germany.” Boente: Kabayel Ready for the Big Stage Legendary heavyweight manager Bernd Boente, who famously guided Wladimir Klitschko through his peak years, exclusively told WBN that Kabayel’s chances depend entirely on timing and political positioning. “With an undisputed champion like Usyk, waiting is always a problem for the official challengers,” Boente explained. “Hopefully Agit sometime in 2026.” Boente then provided the ultimate upside: “However, if Usyk retires before then, Kabayel could be crowned WBC champion almost overnight.” He concluded: “That would be a richly deserved reward for decades of perseverance.” The German star’s impressive unbeaten record (26-0, 18 KOs) and recent victories over Arslanbek Makhmudov, Frank Sánchez, and Zhilei Zhang cement Boente’s assessment. Germany Awaits Its Next Heavyweight Champion Boente firmly believes Kabayel can restore the nation’s love for the heavyweight division. “A world title for Agit would be something very special for German boxing,” Boente emphasized. “It would give the sport a boost that hasn’t been seen since the Klitschkos.” He reiterated the historical significance: “Agit would be the first German heavyweight world champion since the great Max Schmeling in 1930.” About the Author Phil Jay is the Editor-in-Chief of World Boxing News (WBN), a veteran reporter with more than 15 years of experience covering boxing.
