As reports flooded the internet regarding a potential fight between IBF cruiserweight champ Tomasz Adamek and heavyweight Andrew Golota, BoxingScene.com contacted Adamek's co-promoter Kathy Duva of Main Events, to get the scoop on the all-Polish dream fight. Duva is not sure where the information started or who spread the story but the fight is not close to happening. There are several options out there but none of them will be seriously explored until Duva�gets a chance to�start negotiations with mandatory challenger Steve Cunningham.

A date of October 10 is being held at the Prudential Center [in New Jersey]. Adamek might fight on that date but no decisions are being made until we speak with Cunningham," Duva told BoxingScene.

I wouldn't have minded Adamek-Golota, but I'm happy readin this. Before Adamek does anything else I'm hopin for that Cunningham rematch. After Cunningham beat Braithwaite, it's mandated now by the IBF I think. Do it up.
