Tomasz Adamek (44-1, 28 KOs) is not coming to lay down. He plans to test Vitali Klitschko (42-2, 39 KOs) very early in their scheduled fight. Adamek challenges Klitschko for the WBC heavyweight title on September 10 at the new soccer stadium in Wroclaw, Poland. By the time the fight comes around, the older Klitschko will be 40-years-old. Adamek wants to start at a fast pace in the early rounds and place a lot of pressure on Klitschko to stay active in the entire fight.

"I will prepare for twelve weeks and I'll be 110 percent ready on the day of the fight.  You need to have a lot of faith, because if you do not have it, you can not win. The camp will be divided into two parts - the physical preparation, and then eventually sparring, which in total will last twelve weeks. If I press and push the pace then Klitschko might get tired. I will of course do everything based on speed, because it's my biggest asset," Adamek said.
