    It is already known that Adamek will not fight for a title in his next fight. Kathy Duva wants to stage an event in Newark with Adamek as the main attraction. Possible opponents are Tony Thomson, Eddie Chambers and Samuel Peter.

    However Polish TV Polsat has come with an offer to stage a fight in Poland between Adamek and Evander Holyfield. If Polsats offer meets financial expectations it is possible that this fight might happen next.

    What you think?

    Adamek should just forget about fighting Holyfield IMO...Its doesnt do anything for Adamek IMO if he beats Holyfield!

    Tony Thompson, Eddie Chambers or even Povetkin would be better challenges that Holyfield.

    If Adamek uses his legs and stays disciplined, this isn't too hard of a fight for him. I'd rather see him fight Peter, Thompson, or Chambers.

    I wouldn't want to see it. Holyfield doesn't need to be taking any more punches, and I think he'd take a lot in that fight.

    Obviously these guys would be much better challenges. However facing Holyfield means a couple of things.

    - Easy win, posibility of TKO needed after recent UDs
    - Staging an event in Poland and making good money because Holyfield is a legend and causal fans would tune in.

    Adamek dominates Holyfield in an easy UD.

    Sam Peter is a much better fight but Peter wont take it because he just won a WBC eliminator. Thompson and Chambers will both give Adamek big problems IMO.

    I'd like to see Haye-Adamek and Holyfield-Golota on the undercard, providing Golota's arm is better.

    Waste of time. Holy needs to retire and Adamek has bigger fish to fry.

    Easy win for Adamek.

    Povetkin would never fight Adamek, considering he has the right to challenge Wlad. Same for Peter. Haye won't fight Adamek neither.

    The only other credible opponent that will probably not say no other than Holyfield is probably Thompson.

    I'd favor Adamek against both.

    Adamek-Chambers would be a good scrap and I wouldn't mind seeing it.

    :-( The only heavyweight that needs to retire even more than Holyfield is Golota, they should have fought in the 90's not in the year 2010.

    Adamek would beat him easier than he beat Arreola, IMO.
