Julian F. M. Stoeckel reacts on Instagram

After weeks of preparation, it held Julian F. M. Stoeckel apparently felt it was important to get back to his fans (and those who had left the negative comments) on this matter.

Via Instagram, he wrote, among other things: "I did NOT give up voluntarily! The referee ruled that I lost the match after the second round by a 'technical knock-out'." The fact that he was definitely annoyed by the - sometimes nasty - comments was underlined, among other things, by the fact that he addressed his post to "smart alecks and know-it-alls".

He also writes that he would have liked to fight on. "I would have liked to fight further and I could have, but I don't go against the decision of the referee or the boxing federation." Also the following sentence: "So to all those who, like in the Bundesliga, always make much better decisions from their sofa at home than the national coach on the field should just get into the ring and cut a better figure...shows that it certainly makes a huge difference than just 'dry boxing'. and actually having to face the other person's fist. Support got Stoeckel here, among others, also by ex-Red Light King Bert Wollersheimwho also said "... The smart alecks should box themselves just one round. ..."
