Gmitruk was found dead in his home in Hipolitów, east of Warsaw, on Tuesday.

The onet.pl website reported that a fire had broken out in his home.

However, there were contradictory reports from firefighters and police about whether Gmitruk had died as a result of the blaze.

Gmitruk trained boxers including Andrzej Gołota, Tomasz Adamek, Artur Szpilka and Mateusz Masternak.
