For a time, Kownacki was an undefeated professional fighter. He won 20 fights, but then came the downfall.
Box. Adam Kunakey posted a losing streak
First, he was twice defeated by Finn Robert HeleniusThen by the Turk Aligo Irina Demirezina. Finally, on June 24 of this year, Kusumano’s defeat came.
This was seen as a sensation because the American had never beaten boxers of the Konaki class. But after the painful defeat, he began to think about retiring from the sport.
But it has now become known that the Polish rival was doping, So this fight would likely be considered a no show. We’ll likely find out how much this will change Konaki’s status in the heavyweight division in the near future.
