    Who would bring more money to the table? Marco Huck? Troy Ross? Please...

    Maybe there's someone I don't know of who's wildly popular locally, but then Adamek would need to go to the other fighter's home turf to get a big payday.

    This should be a great fight, hopefully Johnson can pull it off and win a big title again.

    dude really is a warrior/soldier.
    Glenn Johnson is the man, no homo.

    Expect to see Adamek give several interviews next week with the intent to force and provoke Hopkins to raise the offer to make the fight.

    WOW, Glen is a beast! What a savage! God Bless that warrior. I think Adamek is now a legit CW and would cause Glen problems in the size dept. However, Glen Johnson is far from a pushover with amazing skill, very smart and comes to fight. Also, The Road Warrior's experience is quite commendable.

    Adamek is a bad style for Johnson. Johnson doesn't do well against guys who take it to him and back him up - ie: Hopkins, Sosa, Sheika. He does his best work against guys who back up and give him room, like Dawson, Roy Jones, etc.

    Glen must have trouble walking as big as his balls are. Adamek is very one-dimensional, but, so is Johnson. Both like to come forward...interesting matchup. Glen actually looked his age against Judah recently so I wonder if he's starting to slip a bit? Anyway, hopefully the match gets made because it'll definitely be entertaining.

    I think if Glen can hurt Ademak he's gotta chance but thats a big if.

    It'll go 7-8 rounds, and Adamek will knock him out. It does make for a better fight than Hopkins-Adamek, because IMO, it would turn into a big snore fest. I'd rather see Adamek take on Steve Cunningham again, or least take on someone like Herbie Hide. Herb would make it a fight, even if he is chinny.
