Good indeed, and that's reflected in both the betting odds and the poll. :good http://www.eastsideboxing.com/forum/showthread.php?t=390315
Piotr Wilczewski after the fight. http://sport.onet.pl/wideo/wilczewski-to-taki-bol-ze-nie-moge-sie-oprzec,49977,w.html I think it is time for him to hang them up. He seems to be seriously starting to slur his words. Quite visibly in this interview..
Talks about how great the fans were, he gets asked about the stomach virus he had when he landed in Munich prior to the fight (he had a short stay at the hospital where they were debating postponing the fight), and gets asked whats next, to which he replies he has to sit down and talk about it with his wife, also says AA punches hard, but is a very dirty fighter, and does a lot of fouling, complains the ref didn't do his job to control AAs fouling. Is complaining about serious back pain from punches to the back by AA where he can't lean back when sitting in a chair. Interviewer mentions it was more a battle of tactic vs power, and that tonight it looks like power won, to which Wilczewski agrees, doesn't make much excuses. Pretty much it.
whatever happened to Lukasz Janik? He's been inactive for a while now. Maybe he lost his drive after losing to Masternak.
by This content is protected EBU: Rewanż Proksa - Hope 7 lipca w Wielkiej Brytanii! Europejska Federacja Bokserska zgodziła się na rewanż pomiędzy obecnym mistrzem Europy wagi średniej Kerrym Hopem (17-3, 1 KO) a byłym posiadaczem tego pasa Grzegorzem Proksą (26-1, 19 KO). Pojedynek ma odbyć się 7 lipca na terenie Wielkiej Brytanii w ramach dobrowolnej obrony tytułu, o którą wnioskował promujący obydwu pięściarzy Barry Hearn z Matchroom Sports. Dokładna lokalizacja nie jest jeszcze znana. Przypomnijmy, iż w pierwszym pojedynku obu pięściarzy, po zaskakująco dobrym występie Kerry'ego Hope'a i zaskakująco słabej postawie Grzegorza Proksy (na co mogła mieć wpływ kontuzja łuku brwiowego), sędziowie punktowi po dwunastu rundach wskazali nieznaczną wygraną Walijczyka. Poskutkowało to zmianą właściciela mistrzostwa Starego Kontynentu oraz pierwszą przegraną Proksy na zawodowych ringach.

:thumbsup The one positive i take from Proksa's off night which resulted in a robbery is the fact that he will now learn from his past mistake(overlooking opponents and ****ing around in the ring). IMO he needs to revert backto how he ofught when he was younger and his hands were still ****ed up.Good body work and lots of combos. I always thought he fought best under Laszlo Veras.They seem to have a good relationship and Laszlo always new when to calm Proksa down when he deviated from the game plan.
I thought they said Proksa's eye injury would take months to heal? Guess he'll be all good to go by july
We have a lot of exciting fights coming up in the next 2 months. Proksa's rematch. Szpilka fighting twice in June (2nd, 30th) - 30th opponent uknown Fonfara fighting Glen Jonhnson - This one I do not fully understand, I can't see Fonfara gets past experienced Glen. Roy Jones and Cygan - Although Roy is 43 yrs old and 10 yrs past his prime he's still a huge step up from the guys Cygan has been fighting. So far we have Szpilka on the underacard. Hopefully we'll see some other good names....Jonak, Kolodziej?? Any thoughts??
Proksa should beat this guy easily this time Szpilka will KO Basile, after that I hope he gets a much better opponent Johnson will test Fonfara, good fight for Andrzej at this stage of career apparently Soszyński is to face either Grachev or Miranda also on the 30 June undercard I would like to see Kolodziej against someone who can finally test him:deal
All good fights & I disagree about Fonfara vs Glen Johnson. I can see Fonfara winning the fight & with a solid win, it will propel him to a Lt. HW Title shot. The time to get serious is right now for Andrzej!:bbb
