    yeah Judah fighting for a title does sound kinda hokey ^

    and good point on Urango, just because he's going up to 147 for the Berto fight, there's been no word on having to vacate his 140 title

    still though Bailey is a good fight for Judah.

        Bailey is 9 an 1 in his last ten, and that one loss was disputed against N'goudgo...I'd like to see Zab get a solid win, but methinks Bailey K.O.'s him in the 11th.

          Uh, maybe we should try the next rated contender- Nate Campbell instead of Judah??? Last I checked Judah wasn't even rated by the IBF, unless he was recently "inserted".

          Back to Adamek,

          WTF is up with him and Glen not getting 2M??????? Did the rematch clause between Dawson and Tarver guarantee them 3M or did HBO agree to pay that?
          I don't get it at all. How many times does Adamek have to sell out? If he sells 10K at an average of $100 a ticket there's a mil right there. I'm pretty sure he can sell more than that cuz his fight with Cunningham had over 17,000 in attendance.

            I still want Adamek-Cunningham 2 dammit! And I agree Nate should get a shot, but I guess I don't mind Zab gettin 1 more chance.

              So there's still a chance of Adamek vs. Johnson if Showtime agrees to the Aug 1 Saturday date they have available?

              I would much prefer to see Adamek-Johnson instead of Adamek-Godfrey. Why can't the decision-makers at Showtime be wise enough to understand that that's a fight most fans want to see?

                Adamek's Newark crowds are amazing.

                Adamek is the perfect fighter for a network to support, a real fan favorite.

                  I think it will happen, Cunningham needs to keep busy though to build up the fight. I don't even think he's signed up to fight anyone else right now. Stop stalking Adamek and get in the ring.

                      Who the hell told you that lie?? The Prudential Center in Newark hold 18,000-19,000 people, for both the Banks and Cunningham fight half the arena was curtained off. Roughly 5,000-6,000 fans were in attendance for both fights. However I do see where your getting at because Adamek is rising in popularity and a fight with Johnson would move a good 8,000 tickets in my opinion. ****** move by the networks to pass that fight up.
