MARIUSZ WACH KNOCKS OUT IN FOUR
Polish heavyweight Mariusz "Polski Olbrzym" Wach of Krakow, Poland raised his unbeaten record to 23-0 (11 KO) with a fourth round technical knockout of Galen "Bad Boy" Brown, now 33-15-1 (20 KO), at the Twin River Event Center in Lincoln, Rhode Island on Saturday night. The time was 2:48 of the round.
The 6-foot-7 Wach, who weighed 259, used his considerable height and strength advantage over Brown, 260, backing him up along the ropes with his educated left jab and straight right hand. Wach dropped his opponent twice in the third round before putting his opponent out cold with a multi-punch volley along the ropes.
Wach is a veteran of 90 amateur fights, winning two gold medals at the Individual Polish Championships and a silver medal in the 2004 European Union Championships. Wach was also an alternate on the 2004 Polish Summer Olympics team that traveled to Athens, Greece. He currently trains out of Global Boxing Gym in North Bergen, NJ with trainer Piotr Wilczewski.
