Artur Szpilka will be facing Terrance Marbra 6 - 1. 6 rounds will be on the under card of Yordanis Despaigne vs Edison Miranda. Will be on Feb 3rd ESPN Friday night fights!
That seems to be the case. However I think his hype might carry him to a title shot in a couple of years. Hope he lives up to it, but I doubt he will.
god damn thats a good description. thing is though, if he dropped 15 or 20 lbs, that and what you said might just be enough for him to make some noise in the heavyweight division today given how bad it is
Jealous die hard Golota fans teaming up with Brittards - who would have thunk it.... Not saying Szpilka is a guaranteed success, but give the guy some breathing space. Its rare you have a guy, with relative little amateur experience moving up this quickly and having a considerable amount of attention on him. Nobody gave a **** when Golota was making mistakes against cans cause nobody was watching him that early. Losen up and let Szpilka develop. He has a lot of things going for him, just needs to iron out a few things.
i like the guy. no ho--. hes exciting and always fights like it is his last bout. i will continue to follow his development
He is an exciting fighter, with an exciting style, and is pretty exciting to watch. His attitude are a big part of that. Which is the only reason he is on ESPN FNF so early in his career, it is because his style and attitude almost guarantee some sort of fire-works, or a KO. He only has like 9 fights on his record, give him a break. It's not his fault the media are hyping him.
I'm not impressed by this guy and I don't like street thugs. He's overhyped. He's lucky his promoter is a smart guy.
Always good to see a young prospect get some tv coverage. I don't know if the Despaigne-Miranda fight is still going to be the main event with Despaigne losing several nights ago and Miranda trying to get a shot at Cleverly but I hope the fight stays intact.
he does have attitude (how is that bad in boxing though exactly,attitude=agression=entartaning fights) BUT if you think hes a bum and has no skills then you know **** all about boxing...the guy made Beck quit in only his seventh fight,beck was a championship contender just a few years ago...put your bias aside watch his fights on youtube and then i will accept your opinion
i think hes just learning as he goes along. they discovered him on a soccer field beating the crap out of some fans.
Artur's a world class talent. Give him some time to develop. Has a similar road to the pros as Seth Mitchell, but has a much brighter future than seth
