    Tongue in cheek thread but someone made the comment on a Polish site and after thinking about it he was in part right.

    Arreola sells some but not as many as Adamek(look at the numbers when they fought in Arreola's hometown).Beyond those 2 who which American HW is really drawing any kind of crowds?

    Alot of Poles showed up to the Arreola fight in SoCal but yes NJ NY and Chicago hold the biggest concentration of Poles in the US.

    Probably would be Adamek. . . He brings in 10k polish fans hyped up on vodka and kielbasa. . .

    Although Klitschko brothers do pretty big numbers in USA too (attendance wise). . .

    Arreola prolly had a chance to be, because of the popularity in SoCal amongst Mexican-Americans. . But I think they lsot interest in him after getting massacred by Vitali, and then outpointed by Adamek.

    How about the entire HW boxing scene before 2000?

    Most recently the 90s era? Questionably one of the best eras for HW boxing?
