Professional Career
Nicknamed "The Polish Warrior", the resident of Mississauga, Ontario made his debut as a professional on November 23, 2001 in Southfield, Michigan against Michael Moncrief of the United States.
In 2005 Binkowski lost to lightly regarded countryman Patrice L'Heureux. Although Binkowski sported the better record, he came in as an underdog against hard-hitting American amateur star Rafael Butler on ShoBox in April 2007. He hit the deck three times in the first round but scored a stunning come-from-behind TKO in the final round of their bout.
Binkowski was crushed in a 2nd round TKO loss to Mike Mollo in October 2007.
