Overview

• Amateur boxer Daniel Bertz stopped Hasan Arli in the fourth round by technical knockout.
• The bout headlined the Bratwurstiade at the Bratwurstmuseum in Mühlhausen before roughly 300 spectators.
• Organizers announced a compromise that lets Nuremberg keep the “oldest bratwurst kitchen” claim while Thuringia touts the oldest written mention from 1404.
• The rivalry was reignited by Erfurt researchers who cited a 1269 charter referencing a hut and a “Bräter,” an interpretation that remains disputed among specialists.
• The challenge came from Nuremberg restaurateur Sofia Hilleprandt and was accepted by museum head Thomas Mäuer, extending a long-running contest that also involves Regensburg’s Wurstkuchl and its 1378 record.
