“It is a great honor for me to fight in the World Boxing Super Series for the Muhammad Ali Trophy,” teica Włodarczyk. “I trained for two weeks in the Polish mountains and now I am back in Warsaw putting in the work forOktobris 21.”
“I am very happy to have the opportunity to fight a champion like Murat Gassiev. He is a young, strong champion like I was a few years ago but I am ready to show that I am still the best in the division.”
One of the hardest punchers in the sport, Gassiev trains with Abel Sanchez in Big Bear, California and hails from Vladikavkaz, Krievija. The 23-year-old made his U.S. debija 2015 and delivered four straight knockout victories, Ieskaitot “Knockout of the Year” contender when he flattened Jordan Schimmel in the first round in May 2016. Gassiev then challenged Denis Lebedev in Russia last December and was able to drop the champion on his way to winning the IBF title.
Fighting out of Piaseczno, Polija, Wlodarczyk first became a world champion when he defeated Steve Cunningham in 2006 to capture the IBF crown. After fighting to a draw against WBC Champion Giacobbe Fragomeni in 2009, Wlodarczyk stopped Fragomeni in their 2010 rematch to become a champion again. He would go on to defend the title six times and enters his Oktobris 21matchup on a four fight winning streak.
