Andrzej Soldra
The red-hot super middleweight ace, who won Bronze at the
2008 Olympic Games has made an explosive start to his professional career in
the paid ranks by blowing away his first five opponents, is undefeated in five
fights with five knockouts in only 14 rounds of action.
The 30-year-old, from Bhiwani, is an icon in his homeland
and his summer hero’s return will be a national homecoming event and he says
that there is no way that rival Andrzej Soldra will upset that from happening.
Andrzej Soldra from Poland , comes into the fight
against Vijender Singh with a record of 12 wins with 5 knockouts from 16
fights. The 30 year old has the edge in experience over Vijender Singh with 81
rounds under his belt and has no fear fighting his first fight abroad. Soldra
also has a brilliant record in amateur career with 82 wins from 98 fights.
Soldra has only been stopped thrice in a professional career
spanning over five years and will be looking to spoil the party when he makes
his first appearance in UK
soil. Vijender Singh knows it is crucial that he wins at the Macron Stadium
before setting his eyes on a huge Indian homecoming.
Undefeated Vijender Singh claimed his fifth professional win
at the Copper Box Arena last month with a blistering fifth round stoppage of
Frenchman Matiouze Royer. The Indian knockout merchant ended the contest in the
fifth round with a punishing stoppage win over Royer and will be looking to
claim another KO win at the Macron Stadium.
Commenting on his sixth fight Vijender Singh said “I
have seen videos of Soldra he is a good opponent but I am preparing very hard
to give him a tough time in the ring. He’s very experienced though and with 16
fights and 81 rounds he’s got the advantage over me in that department but I
will stop him”.
“I know this fight is very crucial for me and I need to
continue my unbeaten record and it’s important that I put on a commanding
performance against Soldra to keep on course for my title shot and my
homecoming. I am really excited to finish off my sixth fight on a winning note
and then compete for Asia title in front of my
home crowd”.
However, Andrzej Soldra has threatened to stop the Indian
Hotshot in his tracks and inflict this first loss on his record.
“Vijender has never met anyone like me and he will realize
what it is like fighting with a real professional boxer on the 13th May. I
will take great delight in handing Vijender Singh in his first loss and sending
him back home to India
beaten and broken. In fact I will tell you what I will do to him, I will smash
him to the body to loosen him up and then a right hand to knock him out, just
watch me” said Andrzej Soldra.
