Keys to Victory

Fran Luka Duric

  1. Relentless pacing: Utilize his youth, speed, and cardio to push a relentless pace, overwhelming the older Swedish veteran from the opening bell.
  2. Mix striking and level changes: Keep Wójcikiewicz guessing by continuously blending his striking combinations with perfectly timed takedown attempts.
  3. Check hooks on the retreat: Punish Wójcikiewicz's aggressive forward bursts by pivoting off the center line and landing sharp check hooks.

Bartosz Wójcikiewicz

  1. Rely on veteran composure: Use significant striking experience to read Duric's timing, picking him apart from the outside without overcommitting.
  2. Body work to slow movement: Target Duric's midsection early with kicks and hooks to drain his gas tank and slow down his footwork.
  3. Lateral movement and leg kicks: Keep the fight in a preferred range by circling away from the young prospect's power side and chopping at his lead leg.
