    whatever he decides to do Im sure his fights will continue to be exciting. Not sure HW is the best place for him, but he has no choice as cruiserweight gets no money probably.

      Adamek v. Haye would be a cracker. But Tomasz has about as much chance against Wlad or Vitali as Haye does - not a lot. Too big, too strong and still fast enough.

        He certainly won't beat the Klitschko's. He'll get outboxed by Chambers, Povetkin, Solis, Johnson, etc. Denis Boystov would knock him out.

        He can beat chumps like Golota or Oleg Maskaev, maybe even John Ruiz but when he fights the fresher heavyweights he'll be in for a tough night.

          Wish we would have gotten a chance to see him and Cunningham get it on in a rematch. But he's fun to watch, interested in seeing him at heavy.

            yeah I wanted to see the Cunningham rematch as well

            212 seems quite light when compared to the other HW contenders

            who for the most party around 230 and up

              If only those creeps who run HBO and Showtime would have let him fight Hopkins, Cunningham or Johnson on TV, he wouldn't need to do this.
              yeah i wish he destroys hopkins. hopefully hopkins will start saying ill never lose to white boy again

                Nothin much happenin at HW. Adamek would lose to either of the K bros imo. If he can still make weight comfortably at CW, I wish he'd stay there. Unless it's all about the $.

                  many heavyweights fight at 210-220.chris byrd,holyfield did for years,haye,barrett,chambers just beat dimitrenko & he knocked him down.adamek says he comfortably could weigh 215-220.he said before his last fight at cruiserweight he walks around 215 inbetween fights.he can take a hell of a shot so im intersted to see his fights at heavyweight.i look forward to his fight with golota.im cheering for golota but i hope its a good fight.we will see how he handles old golotas power.golota will be 245-250.

                    All this means is that he doesn't have to pay the IBF the ridiculous fees they charge. He has the Ring belt at Cruiser and he pays no fees...

                      I like TA but I don't really see him doing any better than Jirov did at HW. Both fighters have small frames for HW's, especially in the current super heavyweight era.
