On the 22nd of September at the Centennial Hall in Wroclaw, WBC crusierweight champion Krzysztof Wlodarczyk (46-2-1, 33 KOs) will defend his title against Francisco Palacios (21-1, 13 KOs) of Puerto Rico in a mandatory rematch. They first met last April in Bydgoszcz, with the champion winning a controversial split decision. The WBC ordered a rematch  at last December's annual convention.
