His toughest opponent has come in the form of the LA Anacondas' Chris Horodecki, to whom he lost by decision in February 2007.
Bart Palaszewski trained judo for two years when he was seven years old and still living Poland. At the age of 13, Palaszewski moved to the United States.
Bart Palaszewski began his MMA training in his senior year of high school under Jeff Curran in his hometown after being beat up by a member of Curran's academy.
