Weight category: middleweight (up to 75 kg) Clubs: The Jewish Sports Club in Białystok

Largest successes: bronze medal in Poland Senior Boxing Championships in 1933 in Warsaw. It was the first ever medal won in Poland Championships by a Bialystok boxer.

An interesting bit of trivia regarding this boxer is that a year earlier, in the Boxing Championships of Bialystok District, he knocked out Zdanowicz – a fighter from the KPW Łapy Club– who died following the fight. Police investigation did not prove guilt on the part of Brzeziński, since the autopsy showed that his rival had had a preexisting heart condition. (J.G.)
