Boxing coach Michael Timm will leave his long term employer, Universum Boxing-Promotion on the first of August. The 50-year-old will join the German Boxing Association (DBV) at the Olympic Training centre in Schwerin, where he will become the head coach from the first of August. Timm, who lives in Schwerin with his wife, signed a free contract until the end of the year. However he got also offered a permanent 4-year contract from the first of January 2013 as the head coach of the federal base. Universum boss Waldemar Kluch regrets Timm’s decision, but will not put any obstacles in his way. “We have accepted his decision and will let him go to his home city. We agreed to an early cancellation of his contract. He did a great job and the move to amateur boxing will be of big help for German boxing. We wish him all the best,” said Kluch.
