    Paweł WOLAK: Next Stop ESPN2 In JULY?

    • Junior middleweight contender Pawel Wolak (29-1, 19 KOs), coming off a dominant and unexpected sixth-round knockout of former titleholder Yuri Foreman on March 12, could return to headline an ESPN2 "Friday Night Fights" card in July against Delvin Rodriguez (25-5-2, 14 KOs).


    Klitschko, Adamek have venue for fight

    Although it remains unfinished, Poland's Wroclaw Stadium has been chosen as the venue for Vitali Klitschko's Sept. 10 defense of his heavyweight belt against native son Tomasz Adamek.



    I haven't checked the alphabet rankings but for those who have; how close is he to a title shot?

      He deserves a world title shot now.

      His next fight should be on HBO against Dzinziruk or one of the other titleholders at 154, but he'll have to settle for a lesser payday on Friday Night Fights.

          WBA: Cotto's next fight will probably be against Margarito later this year, so that leaves him out. Wolak is rated 6th on the WBA rankings.

          WBC: Alvarez is fighting Ryan Rhodes a month before Wolak fights on ESPN2, so that's a possibility for later in the year? Wolak is ranked 11th in the WBC ratings.

          IBF: Bundrage fights a month before Wolak as well, so this fight is also a possibility for later this year. Wolak is ranked 8th on the IBF ratings.

          WBO: Dzinziruk is bouncing back from a loss so I doubt he will want to fight Wolak this year. He isn't scheduled to fight anyone as far as I know. Wolak is ranked 4th on the WBO ratings.


          He's rated highest on the WBO ratings so a fight with Serhiy is likely to be next. What news do you know of Serhiy's next move?

              Delvin can make him look bad, he has a deceptive record and could easily have only 1 loss.

                  Wolak looked like an absolute bull in his last two outings against Pinzon & Foreman. I'll give him a good shot at wrecking any of the four belt-holders.
