    And you know, I don't think it's that unreasonable of a request.

    Peter has more fights at heavyweight, and he's been a Champion.
    Yes, Peter has 4 losses, but 3 of those are to a Klitschko (who Adamek and any other Heavyweight would lose to anyway). So you can't really count those too negatively when talking about a fight against Adamek.

    I know Adamek has a good fan base, but Peter's can't be bad. I would imagine that a lot of the fans who have seen him against Wlad and Vitali would tune in to see other fights of his, including against Adamek (I'm one of these fans).

    Maybe 55-45 would be fair....

    In terms of where they are now, and fanbase, I'd say 60-40 Adamek at least.

    Unreasonable. Adamek is on the way up, Peter on the way down. Its also not like he has any big fights lined up.

    Would love to see it. Adamek's reign at heavyweight has been quite a joke so far.

    His reign? You mean his IBF international belt or something? :huh
    And his campain isn't that dissapointing at all, he's busy, he wins his fights and he fought some decent opponents (Arreola is even reasonably good).

    He had 4 heavyweight matches in 2010; it's always better than do nothing !
    Arreola was a good opponent and he won that match pretty well

    By that logic, so is Peter.
    Peter is simply not in a position to bargain after getting the snot beat out of him by Wlad. Adamek is one of the hottest commodities in HW atm. 60-40 split is what it will come down to. I seriously hope Peter's people don't put the brakes on Peter's career because of this. He has no where to go but down, whereas, Adamek has options. BTW, if Adamek defeats Peter, his HW resume shits all over Haye's from any angle you care to examine.

    adamek should be fighitng for a title right now. Not wasting his time fighting bums. I think he already proved himself ( alot more active then some of thins slobs).

    I'm kinda surprised Peter is pricing himself out of this bout. If this thing is going down in Poland then 70/30 for Adamek sounds fair.....and may be just as much $ as Peter earned fighting Wlad. Adamek risks his title shot, while Peter either earns a title shot or another big money bout against Chambers (and surely financial leverage in that bout).

    Agree if Adamek beat Peter he should be ranked ahead of Haye.

    One potential stumbling block may be home field advantage for Adamek. If Adamek gets a big ring where he has plenty of room to elude Peter's shots, then that increases his odds.

    If that's the case, then maybe Peter chases some other fight. But outside of Arreola, Adamek seems like a good Peter target.

    so offer Peter 55-45.
    IMO Peter is good on Adameks resume since moving up...... Former champ and Still has the "! punch" that can change things.

    Peter knows he is on his way down...can you blame him trying to get the most cash he can before he hangs them up?
