    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.

    I don't see how McBride is going to help him prepare for a Klitschko? I mean he's a big guy but he's slower than global warming. This will be another beatdown ala Bobby Gunn. He'd learn more from fighting Michael Grant again or Kali Meehan. Or hell, throw him in with Ray Austin.

    Guys, Adamek will get >35% of all income from Klitschko fight. At least that's what Adamek's promotor said in some interview. They've been also praising Klits for their generosity but at the same time they mentioned someting about "great deal of money being available at that time in Poland" (promotion of new soccer stadiums for Euro 2012), which I think is the key here.
    As for Golota fight, I wouldn't be surprised if he earned less than 500K for that. The fight was available on open TV channel. September Klitschko fight will be the first PPV event in Poland.

    As for McBride - it sucks, but it wouldn't have happened if he didn't sign with Klits. Still, what annoys me more is not the fight itself, but the fact that it will probably be the main event. Bouts like this should be an undercard.
