Juergen Braehmer (48-3, 35 KOs) says he will be ready to rematch Nathan Cleverly (30-3, 16 KOs) in early 2017 following a positive diagnosis on his injured right arm.<\/p>\n

The German southpaw, who celebrates his 38th birthday today, may have lost his WBA World title to Cleverly, but has received good news from the doctors.<\/p>\n

His injury has been diagnosed as a minor muscle tear in his right forearm that will not require surgery, which means, following a short break, the former two-time World Champion will be ready for a rematch with Cleverly early next year.<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2019Fortunately, the injury was not as bad as it first seemed,\u2019\u2019 said Braehmer. \u2018\u2019After a suggested period of rest, I will begin my rehabilitation and will be ready for the rematch as soon as possible.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

In an extremely entertaining contest at the Jahnsportforum in Neubrandenburg, after six-rounds, Braehmer was leading Cleverly by two points on all of the judges scorecards.<\/p>\n

Promoter Kalle Sauerland believes Braehmer made the correct decision to retire rather than risk further injury, and is now looking forward to the rematch.<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2019That was boxing at it\u2019s best,\u2019\u2019 said Sauerland. \u2018\u2019We had six rounds of great championship action, but sadly, Juergen was unable to continue. It was a tough call to make but absolutely the right decision. We can now look forward to the second fight between Braehmer and Cleverly.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

In the meantime, Braehmer will return to his coaching role where he aims to guide Tyron Zeuge to a win over WBA World Super Middleweight Champion Giovanni De Carolis on November 5 at the MBS Arena in Potsdam.<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2019First Tyron will become World Champion on November 5,\u2019\u2019 said Braehmer. \u2018\u2019And then, I cannot wait to fight Cleverly again and take back what is mine!\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n
