Elk, Poland - In the main fight of the event, promoted by Andrzej Gmitruk, young middleweight Maciej Sulecki (17-0, 3 KOs) continued his rise with a clear win over experienced Lukasz Wawrzyczek (18-3-2, 2 KOs) in a bout of two feather-fisted technicians for the vacant Polish middleweight crown.

After the first two rounds, which were pretty much even, faster and better-equipped Sulecki started to take over. His advantage was hardly visible at first but grew with each fought round. Wawrzyczek did his best to even the fight but he was unable to do that. Sulecki was under fire but when he was seemingly fatigued, he fired back with hard right and left hooks. The end of the fight was fought on even terms once again. At the end, there was no doubt of who was the winner this night - it was Sulecki. Scores were: 99-91, 98-92 and 99-93 - for the new Polish champion Maciej Sulecki.

Light welterweight Michal Syrowatka (6-0, 1 KOs) won a hard-fought battle over tough Frenchman Franck Petitjean (10-3-2, 1 KO) with a unanimous decision. Syrowatka did better in the first two rounds with his left hooks, but Petitjean answered well, using uppercuts. He was able to even things up in the third and the end of the fight was mostly even, with a slight advantage of the local hero. Final scores were: 60-54 (twice) and 58-56.

---------------------

Norbert Dabrowski (13-0, 6 KOs) risked his fight versus Robert Swierzbinski, scheduled to take place in a week in a neighboring town of Bialystok, and almost paid a dear price. Dabrowski was badly rocked with a right hand by the Georgian import Midnia Nozadze (14-6, 9 KOs) to be issued an eight-count at the very end of round one. Unfortunately for Nozadze, his luck didn't last long as he suffered a broken right hand with this punch. He sustained the pain for no much longer, being officialy stopped after 45 seconds of round two.
