Polish pugilist Andrzej Soldra is all set to ruin Vijender Singh's massive summer homecoming fight when he will take on the Indian boxing sensation at Bolton's impressive Macron Stadium Premier Suite on Friday.

The dynamite punching middleweight from Southern Poland said that it is in his destiny to beat the unbeaten star.

Soldra, who has the edge in experience over Singh with 81 rounds under his belt compared to Vijender's 14, holds a record of 12-3-1 (5) and plans on spoiling the party when he makes his first appearance in England.

Meanwhile, Olympic star Singh will have to be at the top of his game if he is to overcome his biggest challenge to date.

Commenting on his upcoming bout, Soldra said, "Friday the 13th is going to be a horror show for India's golden boy Vijender. It's about time his lucky streak came to an end and I'm going to be the man who delivers the knockout blow! He's had it easy up until now, us Polish are a different breed, and he's going to be in for a shock on Friday."

"I'm on a different level to all of his previous opponents. I have a solid winning record and I'm not familiar with losing. These bums he has been fighting have been falling over but I'm coming to England to fight! When I start landing on him he's going to be in a whole world of trouble," he added.
