Review: 2014-10-24, some tough exchanges between Rakhim Chakhkiev and Giacobbe Fragomeni but it is not enough to get three stars. Rakhim Chakhkiev entered this fight with a pro boxing record of 19-1-0 (14 knockouts) and he is ranked as the No.9 cruiserweight in the world (currently the #1 in this division is Marco Huck), he suffered his only defeat in 2013 when he faced Krzysztof Wlodarczyk (=Wlodarczyk vs Chakhkiev); after that bout he won three fights, the last one against Santander Silgado (=Chakhkiev vs Silgado).
His opponent, Giacobbe Fragomeni, has a record of 32-4-2 (13 knockouts) and he entered as the No.40 in the same weight class but he is 45 years old (14 years older than Chakhkiev); he also lost against Wlodarczyk last year (=Wlodarczyk vs Fragomeni 3). Chakhkiev vs Fragomeni is valid for the vacant EBU (European) cruiserweight title; undercard of Alexander Povetkin vs Carlos Takam. Watch the video and rate this fight!

2010 best BOXING fight – Wlodarczyk vs Fragomeni 2 – full fight Video
Review: 2010-05-15, high pace fight, balanced and valid for a world title (vacant WBC cruiserweight), the second fight between Krzysztof Wlodarczyk and Giacobbe Fragomeni was one of the best boxing fights of 2010. In the first fight (fought in Italy in 2009) Fragomeni was the defending champion and the match ended in a draw but in the rematch Wlodarczyk was fighting in front of his fans and so he was absolutely determined to win the belt. Giacobbe Fragomeni (26-2-1) pushed forward almost every round but at the end of the sixth Wlodarczyk (42-2-1) knocked down him, the Italian boxer recovered but in the eighth went to the canvas another time and the fight ended by TKO (‘Diablo’ Wlodarczy and Fragomeni also faced each other a third time on December 6, 2013 = Wlodarczyk vs Fragomeni 3).
