    I didnt even know grant was still fighting, I dont favor him over anyone, but the guy is a pretty good boxer with decent power. he is chinny as hell tho. If he can maintain distance he can check adameks chin at heavy. He has a very outside chance. Adamek is sure busy and quite a ballsy figther, I tip my hat to him.

    Not really, adamek would NEVER quit, he has fought 12 rounds with broken nose swallowing his own blood for gods sake. Lets be Honest here, golota was kicking the **** out of grant before he quit. Not really says that grant was Good but that Golota was such mentally weak.

    So why are people complaining about Sosnowski? Sosnowski = Adamek = Golota = Wawrzyk and Adamek is the #4 in the world :lol:

    Blasphemy, you poles thought that Golota was the second coming of Christ when he emerged on the boxing scene in the early 90's and then again in the 00's. Now that you have a new one you forget about him and toss him aside and a quitter? :roll:

    Adamek is overrated just like Golota's career. You can't reason with Poles they only have one fight a decade to bank on.

    But their fighters are big threaths for the champions, I don't know if you've seen Golota vs Bowe 1 and 2? He lost both by DQ but effectively ended Bowe's career and brainactivity.

    what are you talking about? Its not a mystery that golota was a mentally instabile psycho in the 90's. I respect him regardless tho. If he had Adameks Mentality he would be a great Hw champion no doubt about it. He was still able to beat Reigning Byrd much later when he wasnt in 70% as good as before his car accident.

    No offense, but look at the guys he's fought in those eight straight victories. Most aren't even the who's who of the 'Who the hell are you?' category, man. Grant is still good enough to beat up journeyman. That's great...he hasn't been in the mix of the top guys in a long, long time though and hence my "where the hell did this fight come from?" statement. Adamek tested the water with Golota, which was cool. Nothing wrong with that. Then he went further with a young, fringe name. Then he just outclassed a top ten guy. Now Grant? It really is a step backward and what if he loses? Hey, what if he wins? Nothing to gain and a lot to lose.

    If he wanted to test himself fighting a big man with a long reach, that should have been his man.

    Sounds like this is going to be a glorified sparring session to me.

    The point is he'll most likely fight against peter in eliminator at the end of the year. He likes to be busy thats where this fight came from. Should he risk now that eliminator by fighting Thompson etc? Idk honestly.
