Adamek wants to fight Holyfield in late August

[Pugilistic]

Come on Adamek.

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

[rjj tszyu]

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.

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.

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

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 .

Adamek is the most professional HW out there. I have grown to really like the guy. No BS, will fight anyone, and is quite talented. Beating Holyfield, though, proves absolutely nothing, except he gets a phony HW belt, which may help leverage him into fights with the hayes and klitchkos....
