Artur Szpilka vs. Mariusz Wach - November 10, 2018

[Ilya Muromets]

"Szpilka vs Wach starts at 10pm UK time."

I THINK that's 5PM EST. I think. Maybe.

Usyk - Bellew also comes on early Saturday US time. Inconvenient hours. I do wish they'd consult with me before they schedule fights.

you are correct - it's 5pm EST.

there is a 1 hour difference between Poland and UK so the Usyk vs Bellew should start 1 hour after the Szpilka vs Wach fight.

Hope so. Bellew-Usyk ring walks should be around 10:15 onwards. UK time.

DAZN is showing the Usyk fight but as far as I know not the Wach-Szpilka fight. The Usyk-Bellew fight on DAZN is 1PM ET, 10 Nov.

szpilka and wach seem too friendly, wouldnt be surprised if this is more like a sparring session

[dagilechia]

i doubt that. it is a very important fight for both, especially for Szpilka who is the most popular boxer in Poland (he has more haters than fans though) - for him loss will mean the end of serious career, the last options for him would be fighting Wlodarczyk/Zimnoch/Switching to MMA (KSW) and fight actors/celebrities/Pudzianowski. Wach knows that's a winnable fight and beating Szpilka will make him much more popular than he is now (just like Kownacki, he's been totally unknown in Poland, now he is among the most popular boxers in Poland) which means higher purses in next fights. also, i have seen some interviews with both of them, they're not too much friendly for each other.

Wach: ''I want to finish him earlier than Kownacki did'', ''He says that he's like a cat but i don't even need to be a tiger or lion, It's enough to be even a little mongrel to chase this cat away''

Szpilka: ''It's impossible to knock Wach out? We'll see!'', ''We know each other well, we are mates but not close friends. If he will provocate me during the face to face i will just punch him in the face''

[Ilya Muromets]

Wach looks soft around the middle, like he did against Miller, maybe even worse. I'll pick Szpilka now.

[dagilechia]

Wach was heavier only once, in 2007 vs 2-3 Yavor Marinchev. still, it's only 1,4kg/3lbs more than vs Miller and he looked good in this fight. It's also 2,2kg more than before his cancelled fight vs Molina

Szpilka was heavier twice - in 2011 vs Ramiz Hadziaganovic shortly after his prison time and recently vs Guinn when he was heaviest in his career so far at 111,6kg / 246lbs.

my prediction is Wach by TKO in round 8-9.

Szpilka vs Wach (and Głowacki vs Vlasov too but i'm not sure about Briedis vs Mikaelian) will be streamed here:

[Mexi-Box]

Wow, Wach looks like he's in horrible shape. 50-50 now.

[dagilechia]

yeah but so he did vs Miller. on media training he looked quite good and fast in my opinion, he is still my favourite.

He did very well vs Miller, but Miller is a come-forward stand-still fighter. Szpilka is more elusive if he fights anything like he did against Wilder. Making an out-of-shape Wach turn and miss will make him look really bad.

Maybe, you are right, we will see how Szpilka will fight - i also think that he will try to make Wach miss and keep him out of range, but Szpilka himself says that he wants to be the agressive one in this fight but i highly doubt that he will. Looking at his sparrings, he and his trainer relied much on bodypunches, Ustinov was sent home prematurely due to ribs pain, but also Szpilka like always had his hands down when he was hurt - once Ustinov rocked him really hard on sparring.

[dagilechia]

Sulęcki enters to the ring

[dagilechia]

results so far:

Zyśk vs Faniyan - Zyśk UD 8 (78-74, 79-73, 79-73)
Różański vs Buchmueller - Różański TKO 1
Matyja vs Wóz - Matyja TKO 3

[dagilechia]

Sulęcki vs Hamilcaro - Sulęcki TKO 2 (Hamilcaro down 4 times in round 2)

Sulęcki far from his top shape (70-80%) but still it was way too much for Hamilcaro.

[dagilechia]

Sulęcki: ''Golovkin, Canelo or Charlo, i don't care, i just want to fight the best, give me one of them and i'll fight. There was no offer from Charlo team''.

ENJOY!!

[dagilechia]

Piątkowska vs Domini - Piątkowska UD 10 (100-90, 99-91, 98-92)

[dagilechia]

Stępień vs Sukhotskiy - Stępień TKO 9 (Stępień down, but not hurt, in round 4)

Stępień was disregarding his opponent, tried to fight like FMJ, i don't know why he did that, i hope he will never repeat it again

[Ruthless-RKO]

Looks like main event will clash with Usyk vs. Bellew.
