Andrew Golota is back!

Oh I know - you're confusing him with Dimitry Salita the Brooklyn welterweight.

In my understanding they're both Jewish.

Dimitry Salita is an Orthodox Jew.

If I recall correctly, Przemyslaw Saleta is also fully Jewish, I specifically remember when he fought McCall back in the mid2000's, there was a mention of him being Jewish. His surname is also essentially the same as Dimitry's. Maybe I am mistaken but I really don't think so.

If I find a link to the fight I will post it!

Edit - My mistake, maybe he's not Jewish. I thought I heard in the past that specifically Przemyslaw Saleta was Jewish, but maybe I am mistaken. The fight was a long time ago so I might be confusing it or something. My mistake. I thought he was Jewish but now Im not sure.

Anyways, doesn't really matter. Golota should win this fight easily if he trained adequately. Boxrec doesn't have a result up yet, but Im guessing the fight should be taking place soon.

The Poles on ESB are saying it wasn't a bad fight but Golota became exhausted right away. That's what I thought when I saw them at the check in. Saleta on the other hand looked to be in great shape.

Golota had that awesome hand speed earlier in his career like when he fought - or whatever it was he did - Bowe, who was billed as the top heavy in the world at the time, but I don't think he's ever been the same since he hurt his shoulder, or shoulders, in that traffic accident. Now, of course, he is long long past his expiration date as a boxer.

Thank you for correcting me.

I remembered watching his fight with McCall, about 7 or 8 years ago. Saleta was knocked out in that fight, and I seem to remember something from that fight which said Saleta was Jewish, maybe the commentary or something. It's possible that I made a mistake though.

Maybe as Werewolf says I am confusing him with Dmitriy Salita who is Jewish.

It's an honest mistake on my part and thanks for correcting me!

Tough fight between 2 Polish Guys, I was hoping Andrew would win but I guess it's really over for him.
 
Hey those two didn't come to put on some old timers boxing exhibition, they came to fight! Golota took a lot of punches. That can't be good for his health. Surprising good fight.
 
yup, had Golota been even half of his former self he would have beaten Saleta (although i gotta give him props, he showed up in a great shape! not exactly young himself at 44, only Golota's junior by a year)

No worries. I've got the advantage of reading Polish. :icon_wink: If Saleta was a Jew, I'd know about it...

The only positive aspect of this circus was all of the old footage of Golota belting the crap out of various Negroes which was shown on Polish TV in the lead up to the bout...
