    Even tho these guys are long retired, there are still debates going on in this country, who is our greatest professional fighter. Who in your opinion is the best that ever came from Poland?

    1. Dariusz Michalczewski - long reigning light heavyweight lineal champion and the WBO title holder at 175 and cruiserweight.
    2. Andrew Golota - perennial Top 10 heavyweight contender with 2 controversial defeats for the world title.
    3. Tomasz Adamek - light heavyweight title holder, curiserweight champion and Top 5 heavyweight contender.

    You could probably throw Benny Goldberg into the argument.

    Not even close to these 3 imo. He could have an argument against Golota, as he was a title holder and Golota wasn't, but it would be a weak one.

    Adamek stopped everyone's favorite----when they did fight. A mismatch and the former lh had a picnic in there Did he even miss a punch?
