    Nah, it's more Main Event trying to keep him busy before one of his bout with the K, they don't want him to fall back in the rankings so they are taking big dudes to practice him with not too much risk. Beside, he'll clock another 1.5 millions staying busy before the situation with the K and Haye unravel.

    $1.5million stay busy fight? Dream on, he wont get much more than that against a Klit. Try $50,000. If he could make million+ purses fighting washed-up journeymen like McBride he'd never need go near a Klit. Fact.

    theyre trying to keep him busy before fighting a kiltschko. And its also practice against a tall guy. Btw , Ive read Adamek will get 5 mil for the klitschko fight

    This is just a stay-busy fight before the Klitschko bout. I don't see the problem.

    That's probably for fighting both of them. The Klits and Haye is the only way he makes million dollar paydays. He fought Arreola on HBO for a $100,000 just a few fights ago.

    Stay busy fight, he's been fighting every 3 months on average lately so...As for the money I imagine he made a nice chunk of change fighting golota in poland but who knows I might be way off base

    Preparation is KEY......... I know he doesn't want to be going life and death with an opponent before Klitschko, but Kevin McBride is not good prep at all for a Klit.

    There are not that many fighters that can prepare you for Klit and not be dangerous as well. This guy is tall and beatable. Good choice.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    He'll make at least 500K, I might be exagerating with 1.5 but Adamek is the second biggest tockets seller behind Manny Pacquiao for the past year, at least that's what I've heard from an interview with Gary Shaw I believe. So yeah, somewhere between 500K and let's say 750K per fight is quite a reasonable guess for what he does at the moment.
