“The only thing that matters is winning. I don’t have a plan B for the fight, ”says Adam Kownacki (20-2, 15 KOs), who on Saturday will face Ali Eren Demirezen (16-1, 12 KOs).

“First of all, I know that at heavyweight, one punch can change everything. Secondly, the head cannot be occupied with other things. It's not that you enter the ring, you fight, and everything will be "good, beautiful." I know that you have to be 100% focused on your work,” said the Polish heavyweight boxer.

"What will change? Leg work. I definitely want to move around the ring more and rely on counterattacks. The plan is simple: work from a distance, close the distance, attack, leave. I don't want to move forward like a tank all the time, I want to jump over it, attack it from different sides and angles. I think this is what will make me win. I don't know what I will need to do to lose this fight. I am focused on winning and I don’t think at all that I can leave the ring defeated. Self-confidence is the foundation of this sport. If you start thinking about a plan "B", you can be sure that it will come true. I don’t think about plan B,” Kovnatsky concluded.
