Career and Style
Krawczyk is European judoka with many achievements. He started the most of his career in half-heavyweights and he was one of the tallest guy there. He knew how to work with his height. It was hard to get to him. His judo technique was limited. Te-waza (seoi-nage) were his dominant technique. The biggest problem in his career was psyche. When he was leading by koka or yuko he hardly save the score. Many times he lost just because he stopped fighting.
The most important match in his career was probably semifinal match in 2004 Athens OG against Hontyuk. He was leading just 5s before end by koka but Ukranian pull him down in last moment.
He did not qualify for 2012 London OG.
In 2013 he was still active. He doesn't have big ambition already but when somebody injury he is willing to stand in for him. He also works as assisten of national coach.
