Edmund Gerber (born 2 August 1988) is a German heavyweight pro boxer. He is based in Schwerin, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany.

Amateur career

Gerber was a successful amateur on junior level, winning gold at the 2005 European cadet (U17) championships [1] and bronze in 2006 European Junior championships where he lost to eventual winner Remzi Ozbek.[2]

Professional career

Gerber made his professional debut in 2007.

In 2009 he stopped Marcel Zeller (record 22-4) and Shawn McLean (4-4) who had recently KOd undefeated (38-0) Faruq Saleem but didn't create a lot of interest with his first 9 bouts. That changed significantly in 2010 when he not only beat the experienced southpaw René Dettweiler (record 25-2 with a win over Gbenga Oloukun) but was also the first fighter to stop him, needing just two rounds for it. He also got a TKO win against Michael Sprott but was losing this fight heavily, it was a controversial stoppage as Michael Sprott got to his feet by the 8 count and looked well enough to continue. However three months later for the first time in his pro career, Edmund lost the rematch with Sprott by majority decision.

Professional boxing record

25 Wins (16 knockouts, 8 decisions), 2 Losses (1 decision)[3]
