The new kid on the heavyweight block, Tomasz Adamek, could be in the market for a clash with former undisputed heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield. The near 48-year-old Holyfield came back to the ring in April to knock Francois Botha out in eight rounds. Many believe he was robbed of a win against then WBA heavyweight champion Nikolai Valuev in 2008.
The manager of Holyfield, Ken Sanders, tells BoxingScene.com's Lem Satterfield that Adamek's manager Zyggi Rozalski recently called him to see if they were interested in the fight. They plan to speak again next week. No matter his age, a fight against Holyfield would create major business at the Prudential Center in New Jersey, where Adamek sells thousands of tickets for every fight.
"His manager said that he would call me back in a week or so," said Sanders. "I told him that we would consider it, depending how much money we're talking about, where it is, and when it is."
