On November 5, WBC #9 and one of the most promising Polish youngsters Mateusz Masternak (20-0, 15 KOs) will have a hard test ahead of him. Masternak takes on ultra durable Belgian veteran Ismail Abdoul (36-18-2, 14 KOs) for a vacant IBO I/C belt. Abdoul mixed it up with the best cruiserweights around, including world champions Marco Huck, David Haye, Enzo Maccarinelli and Giacobbe Fragomeni, and was stopped only once by Pole Krzysztof Wlodarczyk. Masternak will have to fight hard to achieve the same result.

Welterweight Lukasz Maciec (11-1-1, 2 KOs) battles Saber Gasmi (11-6-1, 3 KOs) in an undercard. Super middleweight Roman Shkarupa (23-2-2, 8 KOs) and light heavyweight Dariusz Sek (8-0-1, 3 KOs) will also be featured.
