    Austin is up there for a take ... it would be funny if Austin stops Adamek ... he would
    be hated in Poland for finishing HW championship dream of two best polish HW.

    Dimitrenko? Seems like a pretty dangerous fight to be fair, and probably not one the Dimitrenko camp would take if its not an eliminator

    Tony Thompson? Again, a dangerous fight and he's a southpaw

    Tyson Fury? Fury would be jumping the gun to accept this fight so soon

    Can't think of a viable tall fighter. My guess is he'll fight a relative unknown

    ^ Ah! Ray Austin! Good call Stinky... that would be a perfect fight for Adamek

    What about a Cruiserweight clash with Pawel Kolodziej? The guys is Polish, world ranked, undefeated, and over 6'5" tall.

    I think the idea of Tomasz losing and then gaining weight again is foolish, unless the other guy steps up to heavy.

    Too much of a risk, probably.

    Austin is a good suggestion. I like Hoffmann, if he's up for such a fight, though he may pose a Michael Grant-like risk. Dimitrenko and Helenius are likely considered too dangerous even if Adamek would be favored in these fights.

    Pawel Kolodziej is an interesting suggestion. He could probably pack on 10-15 lbs for the fight and look bigger than Adamek in the ring. Does this guy pose a threat to Adamek?

    I've met Kolodziej, the guy is HUGE for CW. Would be interesting, I doubt the Polish fighters want to eliminate each other though.
    Dimitrenko would be a logical choice, won't be happening though, since he will fight Sosnowski on March 26th.

    And Dimitrenko would probably collapse out of nothing, acting like he's going to die of fear.

    That was a joke.

    I like the idea of Adamek-helenius, actually it would be more interesting fight than adamek -klitschko.

    Height and leverage. Chopping punches usually have a much greater affect against smaller opponents, as demonstrated by grant.

    Basically by beating estrada and arreola he proved he is top ten material. Now that he is signed to fight either klitschko a risky fight is pointless as there is zero benefit, unless of course it is vs haye.

    But if I was adamek i'd fight someone big and really ****. Like harrison or long. Either that or a smaller guy he can bully and look really good against.

    Austin is a good shout.

    Also what about that huge polish cruiserweight, the one who beat cunningham, is it wlodarcik or something like that?

    That might be big in poland?

    Either way it absolutely has to fit two categories.

    1) absolute minimal risk
    2) a fight adamek can look good in.

    Surely everyone is looking forward to this genuine top 5 contest so why jeopardise it? Would it be feasible for adamek to sit out? He beat maddalone in december right? So that's 9 month.

    He should either sit tight or fight a no risk opponent.
