      He went down pretty hard in round 4, but he recovered like it was nothing. He had a good workrate, but his accuracy wasn't that good at all. Guy he was fighting was very slippery though.

        I like his mind set. Even though he won, he knows he has work to do. He's not hyping and bragging. He sounds serious, we'll keep an eye on him.

              Download and watch the video of Wawrzyk I posted in our videos section.

              Jolly is 6'4" and ripped,and he's stronger than many fat men who weigh more. And he's scored upsets over up-and-comers in the past.

              Let's not forget, Gamboa has been down as a pro against a clubfighter yet is still considered by many to be on the way to great accomplishments. So was Ali in 1963, by a smaller man! It sometimes is a part of a fighter's development and it sometimes helps them improve.

              Andrzej showed he has the heart of a champion by coming back after being down and dominating in the last rounds.

                He didn't do anything new then he wasn't doing in the previous rounds and didn't make any adjustments. It was more of what Jolly didn't do. He took it well though and gained experienced.

                (I was at the fight)
