Amfiteatr nad Jeziorem Czos, Mrągowo, Poland. In the middleweight limit (up to 72.6 kg) local prospect
Kamil Garzelik (15-0, 3 KOs) not without problems passed the Ukrainian gatekeeper Alexander Ivanov (17-6, 8 KOs), who had not entered the ring for a long time.
The guest boxed with an aggressive first number, confidently reduced the distance, reworked the favorite, and combined. Gardzelik tried to take his due due to better efficiency – he threw out fewer blows, but they hit the target much more accurately. However, he was often passive and clearly did not control the course of the battle.
The key episode of the confrontation took place in the 6th round – Ivanov blundered a counterattack, was knocked down. He tried to record the last two rounds in his asset, but in the final three minutes Gardzelik was still more effective – he defended well, countered well.
The fight turned out to be competitive, the judges disagreed: 76-75 and 77-75 to Gardzelik against 76-75 to Ivanov. It seems that the same knockdown decided everything … Revenge would …
Gardzelik SD 8.

Geram Eloyan (8-4, 7 KOs).
The fighters rolled up a nice slugfest. To the equator, Rigoldi dominated – he enjoyed the advantage in speed and accuracy. From about the 8th round, the champion was clearly tired. It seemed that the initiative would finally pass to Eloyan, but in the championship rounds, Rigoldi was again better.

Rigoldi UD 12.
