Stefan Raab will be boxing against Regina Halmich again on Saturday evening. The presenter's comeback is being kept a secret until the last minute, and the hall is cordoned off.

Fans had to wait more than a decade, but today something they have been yearning for for a long time is coming true: their idol Stefan Raab is returning to TV. On Saturday evening, September 14th, the private broadcaster RTL will be broadcasting the spectacle “The Clark Final Fight – Stefan Raab vs. Regina Halmich” from 8:15 p.m. It is the third boxing match between the legendary presenter and the former world champion. And right up until the end, it is being kept a big secret what the audience can expect from the spectacle.

In the run-up to the eagerly awaited event, almost no information has leaked out about the schedule and – above all – Stefan Raab's physical condition. The numerous social media videos of Raab in the last few days and weeks can hardly be believed. Raab was obviously hiding behind a fat suit and a lot of make-up.

Before Raab event: Reporters have to cover cameras

Even RTL reporter Sebastian Klimpke had to cover his cell phone camera for his report from the PSD Bank Dome in Düsseldorf so that he couldn't take any pictures of the hall. On the broadcaster's side, he only showed the welcome area, which was also designed in the style of a boxing ring. At least he revealed one or two celebrity names that are expected in Düsseldorf that evening alongside Raab and Halmich and the 13,000 guests: Stefano Zarrella, Jens “Knossi” Knossalla and Jan Hofer.

The “Bild” newspaper also confirmed that the PSD Bank Dome was hermetically sealed. The reporter on site was bypassed by security personnel: “What are you doing here? Please don't take any photos!” Nevertheless, the tabloid has already gathered some information, although none of it has been confirmed by the sender. Raab is not scheduled to appear before 10 p.m., although the broadcast began at 8:15 p.m.

Around 45 minutes are planned for his entrance. The paper also reports that Raab secretly took part in a tour of the hall on Friday. An eyewitness reported that the presenter had “worn a ski mask with a camouflage pattern” to disguise himself. He made a “very fit” impression.
