    hopefully showtime put up some money for cunningham rematch and end this foolishness. adamek is agreat TV fighter and someone should bankroll the rematch to an outstanding war from last year. how the eff can andre berto fight smaller men on HBO and adamek has to face bobby gun on Internet PPV???? maybe adamek needs a new promoter. it's a recession, things are tough, i know but main events don't seem to be making it happen. let's not forget king couldn't even keep him active either.

    it would be impressive and lucrative for tomasz to win a heavyweight title. he'd be a 3 weight champ and wouldn't have to worry about TV money. however he won't be able to beat a heavyweight champ unless a chambers or haye has a title. why not wait and see?

    how about just signing with sauerland or universum: defend title with guaranteed TV money. batter the marco hucks and yoan pablo hernandezes of the world. selling out an arena at newark nj or chicago is impressive, but it means they can't afford a decent opponent without showtime money. move on, i say.

    if it's on Versus they won't get enough money. they won't go through that again - 12 rds of hell - for less than a showtime championship boxing payday.

    aw no, Barrett is shot as hell, Adamek should fight a live opponent in order to prove that he's a true HW contender. Beating Barrett doesn't prove **** these days...

    I agree, a move to HW would be the beginning of the end.

    I still wanted to see him face Chad Dawson in the rematch which Dawson would not grant him.

    Also, I wanted to see Adamek against some of the up and coming undefeated Cruiserweights. Guys like BJ Flores, Pawel Kolodziej, etc. These would have been great fights.

    Best of luck champ, you're going to need it!
