    Adamek/Vitali is more interesting to me, as I think Adamek's chances are much better. I think the fight would be much more fan-friendly too.

    I´d prefer some decent eliminator with Adamek that could bring an exciting fight on.
    Their top10 isnt really a bad list for a sanctioning body

    Vitali will be fighting Derric Rossy a couple of weeks before.

    That would be a great matchup but I think Tua needs a tune-up fight against a decent boxer before getting in the ring with Adamek.

    Wonder if Adamek will become a mandatory for the WBO if he beats Grant.

    Would definently be better for him at the negotiating table as well.

    When Haye paid the sanctioning fees to get Enzo's WBO cruiserweight belt, even though he already had the WBC and WBA titles, he apparently didn't think so.

    Also unlikely because they both train with Bloodworth.

    Tua is # 2? Based on what? The draw with Barrett?
