    I think this is an interesting development Chisora is arguably a much less interesting opponent than Chambers or Peter but HBO have picked it up possibly with a view to building up a Haye fight or is it to raise the profile in preperation for Adamek?

    Yeah, think they want Wlad on cos they want the Adamek fight.

    I think it's down to both wanting to build up the Adamek fight and that Chisora is a great promoter.

    The Adamek fight is HUGE in America and that is the sole reason they would jump on board a Klitschko fight...

    Haye's options for the rest of the year are becoming less and less...

    It isn't huge in the US. Adameks last few fights have been on bottom of the barrell PPV and not on HBO, Showtime or even ESPN. Wlad and Vitalis fight have been shown live on espns website too.

    Isn't there a big Polish community everywhere now? :D

    Yeah theres a lot of Poles in America but Adamek has also had a lot of exposure on US televsion.

    So all it took was a top 3 domestic UK HW to get Klitschko back on HBO :yep

    Our country is saving boxing, its a fact.
