In 2019, he returned to amateur boxing defeating Dominik Musil in the final of the Czech Championship, who is also a professional, by a second round TKO.

Professional career

He soon won several belts on the national level. In 2008, he beat the former WBO heavyweight champion Henry Akinwande. After the victory over Aleksey Masikin in March 2011, he became WBO European heavyweight champion and serious contender for the world belts.[1]
