Adamek wants to fight Holyfield in late August

[GAME]

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.

[TigerFan]

Evander's stubborn as a mule...he'll need his ass kicked decisively before he finally (I hope) retires. The fights against an uninspired Valuev and Frans Botha only added to his (crazy) dream of regaining a world title.

If the fight happens...Tomasz will retire him.

[Master]

Adamek should fight someone more credible, this is a step backwards for him.

sad but true

I really cant blame adamek for wanting to beat on holyfield, even at 45 thats still a hell of a name to have on your cv

[therealremi]

As I see it, Adamek throughout his career has been constantly refused a fight with a big known name. Glen Johnson, Ray Jones Jr, Bernard Hopkins, you name it. Either because of fear, greed or lack of television interest, he couldn't beat those guys and steal some of their fame. Now, that his position is stronger, he probably can't resist taking what should be given to him a long time ago
Finally, last year he knocked out old Golota and this gained him more popularity in Poland than beating Cunningham and Banks. At least among "the people". This is how it works, sadly. This is not Adamek's fault - the system is to blame .

Game proposes Chris Byrd next.

[Gandalf]

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

[Galaxy]

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...

Holyfield is broke. He wanted $400 000 for the fight and they turned him down. That means Holyfield is basically prepared to fight for less than $200 000 nett. What a shame, what an awful way for him to end up.
