    Phuck it then, He should just fight in europe or poland...This boxing politics is getting annoying especially with the TV people, You have a fighter like Adamek who is all heart,grit, sweat and blood and they still wouldnt put him on after his fight with Cunningham?? A fight where he looked like a middleweight fighting a crusierweight?? I dont get it..

        completely agreed, people complain about boxing dying, not having new fans, well how is he supposed to get a wider fanbase if you don't give him an opportunity to be seen. Adamek is the type of fighter who deserves it skill, heart, power, he's exciting, & fights like 3 months apart what isn't to love.

          That's complete bull****. Fights like Tarver-Dawson 1 and 2 get airtime but not Adamek.

            Thats the thing, How he is going to get the exposure needed when they wouldnt put him on TV?? He has a crowd pleasing style but this TV guys dont want to invest in new boxers, They prefer to re-cycle known name even if this boxers are shot.

            I bet they would give someone like Arturo Gatti airtime if he returns today.

              It doesn't make sense why they won't at least have Adamek-Godfrey on ShoBox.

                It's tragic really.

                      The real answer is he is ugly and doesn't speak english. I'd like to see more of him, but that's just what I think.
