    Since his debut in heavyweight division in late October last year, Adamek has already fought two hard, 12-round fights. I'm glad he wants to fight 4 matches a year, this doesn't seem too common nowadays.
    Holyfield? Really? That's like, "Food critic wants to eat plate of poo for his next meal."

    Holyfield should never fight again, dot. This might be a very very damageable fight for The Real Deal and I hope he'll retire after that. Adamek comes from 2 good fights, this one won't raise his credibility in the HW division and will likely only keep him active with a check pay at the end of the stick.

    It will be a interesting fight and good measuring stick of where Adamek is at. In his last 2 fights Evander was robbed over 12 with Valuev and blasted out Botha. Adamek had a close fight with Arreola and blew away a fat washed up Golota.

    For the 1st time in a while both guys will be facing an equally ripped guy in the opposite corner who like to prepare 100% unlike the fat trash they have been up against recently. I expect Adamek to outwork Evander but he was wobbled at light heavy so if Evander can land some bombs it should be a fun fight. Adameks not too hard to hit and Evander has a good chin so it may be a long tough fight. Both like to exchange, good combination punchers. Neither guy comes to run and mess around. I look forward to it.

    Come on Adamek.

    You have been fighting really good opponents recently, don't fight a seriously old Holyfield.

    What if Evander beats him??

    I don't think it's impossible. I didn't think Fat Arreola had a chance vs Adamek but Holyfield is in shape and still has a chin and can still punch a bit. I wouldn't write Evander off, Don't get me wrong I'd go for Adamek but Evander might just still have the tools there for an opponent like Adamek.

    Only problem is if he does then he will def get a title shot and that will result in disaster for Evander. Although I don't think Haye would fight his hero!!

    The thing is that his reflexes and his legs are almost completely gone, a miracle is almost always possible as they say but I think that there is way too much for his plate at the moment, especially because Adamek is showing a lot of nice things lately for the HW division.

    Adamek would hammer Holyfield and prove nothing.

    Hopefully this isn't right as Adamek should be doing more meaningful things with his time than beating up a shell.

    That is a really shit choice of potential opponent. Shame on Adamek for even going there.

    Would have preferred Holyfield to Grant, at least Holyfield still has some name value! I like Adamek's activity so I can tolerate a gimme here...
