    His parents are both Irish, so its enough to get an Irish passport...or is there something im missing here? Youre probably be happy enough to call Lennox Lewis British?

    People are forgetting what Adamek brings to the table crowd wise in New York - big polish numbers of tickets and especially if say Wolak could be added along with say Magee who would see it as a good opp

    Without American TV though, how likely is Adamek to take this?

    If it was Adamek v Fury then Adamek would by the draw from across the bridge.

    Seanie Monaghan, Danny O'Connor or one of those lads and then a regular undercard.

    Considering that he was born in West Ham it would be daft calling him anything else really

    I was born in a hospital, and coincidentally I'm a heart surgeon.

    the only irish or semi irish fighter than could draw in the US is Andy Lee.

    Macklin, Fury, Magee have no profile what so ever in New York or the USA.
