Kownacki outhustles Arreola in an exceptional battle in Brooklyn.

Undefeated Brooklyn based Polish heavyweight contender Adam Kownacki 20-0 (15 KOs) won an exceptionally entertaining twelve round slugfest against former world title challenger Chris Arreola 38-6-1 (33 KOs) on Saturday night at The Barclays Center in Brooklyn, NY.
Both Kownacki and Arreola let it all hang out from the opening bell, trading vicious shots throughout the majority of the bout. Arreola injured his left hand during the middle rounds but continued almost single handed for the remainder of the match. Kownacki is relentless and moved forward throwing punches with a breathtaking work rate.. Arreola came in shape but more impressively showed great defensive skills to evade most of Kownacki’s heavy shots much differently that his usual brawling self.. Kownacki was a convincing winner by scores of 118-110, 117-111, 117-111.

One ringside observer, WBC champion Deontay Wilder stated that if Adam continues to win in the fashion that he is accustomed to, it would be only a matter of time before he’d be willing to grant the fan friendly Pole a shot at his title..
