    I agree I hope Main Events are willing to have atleast one of these fights in Europe or somewhere in a more neutral ground so that this doesn't fall through. This is something truly exciting.


    Have you seen the Prudential Center during his fights? I think 90% of his fans are Polish-Americans.

    I know the news pretty much just broke but do you know if it'll be televised in the u.s?

    yes, electric atmosphere, but we're talking pay per view, where hundreds of thousands of buys are often considered a failure. get me?

    I can see that. ustinov would probably demand some serious cash. adamek deserves the cash. he's a warrior and he'd be bringing in the majority of the fans by a long shot.

    How do they decide on the money split in these eliminators?

    Very cool that Adamek and Solis are apparently interested (go kathy duva!). What's the lure for Adamek? Wouldn't he already get like 20% of the take if he just faced Wlad now? On the other hand, if it's Ustinov and then Solis, then that's good odds for Adamek to advance and look like the #2 man in the division (with Vitali retired). Pulev is another matter--I don't like Adamek in that match-up.

    I can see Pulev doing this because Solis and Adamek are not the strongest contenders out there and wins over them would give him huge mo heading into a clash with Wlad. But maybe negotiations will break down over some sticking point and they will find Solis an easier opponent from the list (Boystov, Banks or Walker; Gerber and Jennings ain't ready for this).

    Ustinov wouldn't refuse a shot at Adamek would he? Even at the Prudential? Ustinov pretty much needs the KO regardless, so biased judging wouldn't be as big a potential factor as biased reffing.

    Terrible. Any of those four is a waste of a Wlad date.

    The Solis vs. Pulev winner is a bit less of a waste, but still..

    Adamek = Warrior. Once again he keeps extremely busy and takes on the best any division has to offer. Can't argue with his activity level or his resume.

    correct

    they originally wanted to make Adamek-Toney a PPV in Poland, but his camp were bombed by critics, so they had to let it go

    doubt Adamek-Ustinov will be a successful PPV

    Since Solis and Adamek have already fallen to big brother, why not just skip to Ustinov- Pulev?
