    Summary and analysis of tonight's match up.

    Excerpts:

    "Arreola (28-1, 25 KO) has been considered by some in boxing circles to be the best American heavyweight project in recent years. If this is true then the heavyweight title will not soon reside on these shores because Arreola has always seemed to me to be a figment of the imaginations (or hopes) of American fight critics who desperately want to see the stranglehold on the title presently held by European champions end."

    " Arreola seems to have learned nothing from his troubles with Klitschko when it comes to preparation for a fight that and will step in against Adamek looking the same as always – which is full bodied, to be kind. Adamek will be in shape, skilled, aggressive and knowing that if he defeats Arreola it propels him onto the heavyweight world stage. “I’m fighting for myself and for history,’’ he said succinctly. While true, he’s also fighting for all those boxing fans who believe fighters should be well conditioned and well schooled. He is both. Arreola is neither. What Cris Arreola is is big. If that’s enough to beat Tomasz Adamek it will be too bad for boxing"

    Very true, I agree with all of the above.
