Andrzej Fonfara

[turbina]

That would be a pretty impressive fight and a step up for Fonfara. Johnson maybe past his best but till not long ago was a top fighter.

Boxing fans will not be bored in November – after HW Mariusz Wach faces Wladimir Klitschko, Andrzej Fonfara (22-2, 12 KO) will fight for the Light Heavyweight title. His opponent for the vacant IBO LHW belt will be Tommy Karpency (21-3, 14 KO).

After a win against Glen Johnson, which put the 25 year old Pole on the map of serious LHW contenders, many fans thought that Andrzej will get a weaker opponent, as a tune-up, but Fonfara and his team have said repeatedly, that they're not interested in fighting weaker guys. There were talks with WBO champion Nathan Cleverly (24-0, 11 KO) and Allanem Greenem (31-4, 21 KO), but team Fonfara finally agreed to fight for the IBO belt.

Even though this organisation is not as well known as the Big Three (WBA, WBC, IBF), becoming International Boxing Organization would give Andrzej a much better bargaining position for future fights in a weight catagory that Andrzej has won 10 of his last fights."I've already started training camo, just like before the Glen Johnson fight a 10 week camp, we'll go through everything with my team – from conditioning to tactics and technique. This is my first title fight, and I have to make it so it's the first of many. There's no other way”, said Fonfara.

TV issues, which is important for the swelling number of the Pole's fans, of who will air Fonfara – Karpency are not yet decided. One of the options is to air it on Showtime Next Generation, a series of cards showing the up and comers of boxing.


how do you see this one going?

Easy win for Andrzej.

Tommy has a pretty good chin so I think he'll last the distance.

from bokser.org:

22 March Andrzej Fonfara (23-2, 13 KO) will be back on ESPN. The Pole will once again fight at the UIC Pavilion in Chicago, his opponent will be the experienced Canadian Nicholson Poulard (19-3, 9 KO). This will be a "Friday Night Fights" main event.

Poulard is 35, he won his last 6 bouts. He's the #2 Canadian light heavyweight, behind Jean Pascal. He is 185 cm tall and right handed. He won the NABA LHW title in May, defeating Lionell Thompson (12-0, 8 KO).


don't know much about Poulard, anyone care to share? hope Andrzej recovers from that injury he sustained in the Karpency fight and gives another eye-catching performance for the ESPN viewers

The roider probably wins, but I hope he gets KTFO brutally.
