    Honestly, I think that it is a great move and I explain why:

    It's Adamek's 4th fight in 12 months, that's a LOT. It would be a bit bold to put him against a top contender with a 4th fight in less than a year, especially because he did climb the rungs pretty well lately. Secondly, this is a good little test for Adamek against the huge guys, especially if he seeks to fight one of the K eventually. So all in all: 1) it keeps him active without burning him, 2) allow him to test the big guys 3) get him and Main Event another pay check in the meantime.

    For these reasons I think it is very good, we all know Grant is nowhere close of somebody impressive but in the circumstances, it is a really good overall option.

    I agree 100%, at least he is active. I'd much rather a fighter fought 2 good fights and 2 easy ones a year than 1 over hyped fight every 12 months.

    Isn't that right Mr Haye!

    I don't approve of the opponent but Tomaz is active. I do think Tomaz proved enough against Arreola to have 1 soft fight...at least its not Audley Harrison (although now that I think about it Harrison-Grant or Briggs wouldn't be horrible, chinny big guys with some pop could be something for ESPN to consider)

    Grants a big guy but this Is mostly a showcase fight got that exact reason.Brothers in mind.Grants size today is more of a detriment,more to sway and never really used it all that well.I think Grant needs to be watched close,good to be busy but they could have found more current guy.

    Adamek should stop him in 2-5

    IMO, I think Grant's fitness is shite. Good for Adamek in the PR dept. though. Grant will look huge against him only to fall.
    It feels good to be back home.

    Exactly. In this fight Adamek is going to try out afew things and get use to being in the ring with a bigger man. Its more than just a mark in time fight. He wants to test his strength up close against an 18st man. I expect him to practice some moves, show some quick footwork and pretty much go through the motions. Punching up is something Haye had to do vs Valuev and something he will have to do again vs the Klitschkos. Same goes for Adamek. Its a glorified sparring session but it is a good learning experience cuz it wasnt too log ago Grant was being bigged up as the future of the division.

    After last night with Tua being shown once again to be a built up slugger with no plan B, who knows. Grant may have one good fight left in him.
