    And now his only offers are Shawn Hawk (18-0-1, 16 KO) and Bobby Gunn (21-3-1, 18 KO).

    According to very reliable polish website.

    he refused hopkins because hopkins offered him only $500,000 witch is an insult considering that ademek is the champ.

    As much as I would have loved to see Hopkins vs. Adamek - it's OK - cause Adamek does have other options:

    Roy Jones Jr. has said he would like to make the fight.
    Cunningham would love a rematch.
    Plus anybody above that was mentioned.

    I'm pretty sure his next payday will be more that the Half Million Hopkins offered.

    Maybe Jones takes the fight - win - and then we'll finally see a Hopkins vs. Jones rematch for the Cruiserweight Title. Interesting.

    Hopkins vs. Adamek, Jones Jr., or Cunningham would be very interesting - but all for differnet reason.

    Adamek for the Threat of beating Hopkins - which I don't really see.
    Jones Jr. for the rematch that's only years behind schedule.
    Cunningham for the Philly ties.

    i would too, ****....why would i fight his old ass for peanuts when i could take on a legit CW for much more money?

    Hops is my dude but, he needa quit bullshittin and throw some real money on the table, cuzz that pocket change ain't cutting against a potential boxing superstar in Adamek

    :patsch:patsch rofl dude u re just makin an idiot of yourself

    first of all it was hopkins who refused to fight adamek , secondly the article u dun even quoute is just laughable and no1 really cares about it |(read the comments below if u can)also even in that silly artcicle or its more like rumour without any source at all, they say that negotiations with Roy jones jr are still lasting.

    and that site is not so much reliable , i dont see ur point , maybe u just wanted to bring some attention on you , but didnt realise that some1 like me could read that sh1t too:deal

    BS.

    Adamek can make his choice between Roy Jones, Glen Johnson, Cunningham, and there are rumors around BJ Flores, Huck, Mormeck too. Not mentioning the possibilities with Golota, Wlodarczik later on the year.

    I'm sure Adamek has plenty of options and all of them involve a payday at least twice bigger than what BHop was offering.

    Technically you may say it was Adamek who refused to fight Hopkins... but, since he was offered only 500k$, I would rather say it was Hopkins who didn't want the fight.

    Even if his choice is now limited to Shawn Hawk and Bobby Gunn (and I do not believe it), any fight would be better than simply doing nothing (by which I mean negotiations taking a lot of time and apparently going nowhere).

    Since Haye left and Enzo was exposed I really dont care much about the Cruiserweights unless Herbie Hide can get a title shot.
