Regina Halmich - Boxing match with Stefan Raab has awakened ambition
This fight is highly anticipated. In mid-September, Stefan Raab (57) and Regina Halmich (47) will face each other in the ring for the third time. For the entertainer, it marks his TV comeback after almost ten years. Halmich was initially unsure if she would accept the challenge. "I thought about it for almost three weeks and really considered if it would still work, if I could do it, if people would want to see it", she reported in the radio show "Antenne Bayern Sonntagsfrühstück".
Eventually, her ambition won out. "I thought, okay, I'll do it again. I also had a craving for it", explained the former world champion. She consulted with her old trainer Thorsten Schmitz and he also believed she could complete the fight.
The Ambition Has Dark Sides
"The old fighter Regina has been reawakened. I recently met my mother and she said: Regina, the fire has been rekindled", Halmich told the moderator Kathrin Müller-Hohenstein (58). But that's not only positive for the athlete, but "dangerous". "I have to stop again directly after September 14. The boxing gloves are already hanging on the nail, because the danger that I might want to fight again is just too big, and that's really difficult", she explained.
"I have no idea what he has in mind"
Regina Halmich and Stefan Raab faced each other in the ring before a million spectators in 2001 and 2007 - twice the boxer went out as the winner. Since Raab retreated from public life, she has not seen him. They had not planned a meeting before the big fight. Raab wants to keep the mystery about himself. "He enjoys it. He wants to keep this moment for himself, when he marches into the ring, floats, whatever. I have no idea what he has in mind", emphasized his opponent.
