    It was close fight,thunder. I,too,would have scored their encounter in favour of the Italian at the time of the stoppage.However,I wouldnt argue the toss with someone who had it a draw.
    Anyway! Fragomeni fights 8 rounds on his home turf in Italy. Result:he is the new champ. Leaves a bitter taste in your mouth,eh!

    If he was winning the fight it doesn't really matter that much to me.Kraj really dissapointed me.I don't think he was going to win anyway.Fragomeni really fought with heart and will.And it was a damn good fight

    Kraj now and then lacks the necessary desire to win a fight.I ve noticed it quite often whenever I watched one of his fights. Devoid of any emotions.
    A very decent boxer who somehow doesnt seem to have the right actitude towards his chosen prof in order to be competive against the elite fighters of his weight division. He lacks the finishing magical touch,so to speak. Good fighter,but........ .

    BJ Flores ranked 15 now by the WBC despite not fighting since winning his IBF eliminator. Makes you think...also I see that Pawel Kolodziej is in the top 10, if Wlod wins what are the chances of Kolodziej v Wlodarczyk?

    This is one hell of a matchup, the kind of fight that can ruin a career. These two guys are both flawed but evenly matched swarmers. Both come forward and won't back up, tough as nails.

    I personally would make Wlod the favorite based off of youth and potentially greater stamina. Not a world class level boxing match in terms of skill, but will be a fun war to watch if made.

    Dont know **** about Fragomeni.I do know Wlodarczyk is limited but can crack.The only problem is he never set's his punches up and expects to land nothing but bombs.Wlodarczyk has a pretty tight defense.

    Not his biggest fan(his style frustrated me)but i always wish my fellow countrymen the best.

    for a 40 year old he fights and acts like he is 10-15 years younger. very awkward has a impossible style to figure out with the bobbing and weaving and he hard jab also a decent counter puncher.


    krysztof im just not bough ton just my opinion

    Ill agree to that imo. I said I was gonna pick after I seen the Kraj fight, and I think Fragomeni will win.

    Wlodarczyk is a good fighter and hes always in shape. But I just watched Kraj vs Fragomeni (even tho the stoppage was kinda lame) I had the fight 77 - 74 for Fragomeni. I gave Kraj the first two rounds and that's it, all the rest I thought Fragomeni won.

    IMO, this is probably a pick em fight. I dunno how Fragomeni does in the later rounds, but I see this either Fragomeni winning by points by about 2-4 rounds, or Wlodarczyk goes ape **** and TKOs him in 11th or 12th. Also you gotta keep in mind, Wlodarczyk is still 27, hes still a young kid. This guy is pushing his 40s....but none the less he did look good vs the Czech Kraj.

    Hard for me to descide....but for now im sticking to Fragomeni on points.

    He has a pretty good style imo. His bobbing and weaving will cause Wlodarczyk some problems I think. I think this fight will be a war :yep

    I wonder if Fragomeni will be the favorite?

    GO Diablo!

    Bad news for Wlodarczyk. He needs a KO to get the win there. Not sure he throws enough punches to get it.
