    I like Adamek's work ethic. Dude comes to the heavyweight division, starts taking on fighters knowing he needs to get fights under his belt before he's ready for a Klitschko. No talking, just fighting and winning. Hope he gets a big fight lined up after this one.

      I agree. He's not wasting everyone's time talking. He's gettin in the ring and earning his money and a lot of respect, and quite possibly a title shot in 2011. Haye is a disgrace on so many levels...Adamek should shut him up, then take on one of the brothers. It would up the ante, genereate more income and at least have that WBA belt with one of the brothers to truly clear up who the heavyweight champ is right now, a two headed Ukrainian dragon lol.

        these are just pictures, but Saleem doesn't look like a man who's willing to make Adamek work hard

        he is almost turning his back on Tomasz on all the pictures

          interesting, just curious how Adamek and his camp chose Saleem who's a known bum with a padded record and was exposed in his only loss to another tomato can. guess the Adamek camp chose him for his sheer size and not for his accomplishments.
          I thought Saleem retired after his loss?

                he hasnt fought since, maybe hes looking to get back or just picking up some quick cash as a sparring partner. eighter way michael grant is no monster eighter, they probably just want adamek to get used to punching up and getting inside a long reach. grant is probably a tool to get ready for a klitschko aswell.
