Just
24-years-old, Warsaw, Poland native Fonfara is coming off his career best win,
a dominant ten round decision over former world champion Glen Johnson on JULY 13 at the UIC Pavilion in a clash broadcast on ESPN’s Friday Night Fights.
Sporting
a record of 22-2-1 (12KO’s), the heavy handed Fonfara, one of the best young
fighters in the sport, has captured the interest of the huge Polish population
in the Windy City along with the Chicago fight crowd, drawing massive crowds to
his fights at the UIC Pavilion where eleven of his last twelve bouts have taken
place.
Fonfara
is currently world ranked #8 by the WBC and #11 by the WBO.
The 25-year-old
Karpency brings a record of 21-3-1 (14KO’s) into the world title bout with
Fonfara. Most recently the southpaw traveled to Cardiff, Wales on FEBRUARY 25
to challenge WBO Light Heavyweight
Champion Nathan Cleverly, losing a hard fought twelve round decision.
Two years ago while riding an eight bout-winning streak,
Karpency fought Karo Murat for the WBO Inter-Continental Light Heavyweight Title,
battling to a very close decision loss.
Further details including an
excellent undercard to this world title fight will be announced shortly.
