Ondrej Pala from the Czech Republic is the WBO European heavyweight champion.
Pala (29-2, 22 KO, age 27) is a talented boxer, but he's been poorly managed by Ahmet Öner (Arena Box Promotions).
This Saturday Nov 26, Pala will be fighting Darnell Wilson, who is coming off a surprising MD win over JC Gomez.
Pala should be defending his WBO European title, but unfortunately his promoter left it too late and could not arrange a fight against a European heavyweight contender. So they are bringing in Wilson to be his opponent.
It's sad to see talented young European heavyweights like Pala, Oleg Platov, Denis Boytsov and Vyacheslav Glazkov being so poorly managed and not having the opportunities given to people like Seth Mitchell.
That being said, there are some capable European boxing promoters like the Sauerlands, who are doing a great job with some of their heavyweights (Helenius, Pulev, and Gerber) and Mick Hennessy, who is doing an excellent job with Tyson Fury.
