Star Boxing Adds Polish Thunder To Tropicana Fight Card

Exciting Philadelphian heavyweight, Joey Dawejko (2-0, 1KO) has been added to the Star Boxing promoted card, this Saturday night at the Tropicana Casino and Resort in Atlantic City. Dawejko will square off against Kimani Cunningham (0-2) over four rounds.

The card is headlined by Shamone “The Truth” Alvarez (20-2, 11KO) taking on Alexis Camacho (17-2, 16KO) and will be broadcast live on GoFightLive.tv.

The 19-year-old Dawejko, who goes by the nickname “The Polish Thunder”, turned pro in September of last year after a very accomplished amateur career. As an amateur, Dawejko compiled a 56-12 record, winning the National Silver Gloves three times, the Ringside World Tournament twice, the National PAL tournament three times, and the 2008 Junior World Championship along the way.

Dawejko has also gained valuable experience in the gym, sparring with former heavyweight champions, Samuel Peter and Hasim Rahman (Rahman along with Damien Klinger are managing Dawejko).

Dawejko has a very fan friendly style, which has made him a big local attraction throughout the Philadelphia area. With an impressive showing Saturday, Dawejko hopes to further expand his rapidly growing fan base.

“We were excited to be able to add Joey to the card,” stated Joe DeGuardia, CEO of Star Boxing. “We have heard he is a very exciting fighter, and really knows how to put on a great show, and those are exactly the type of fights we want to bring to our fans each and every time out.”
