Adamek and Golota weigh in for huge Polish showdown

Tomasz Adamek and Andrew Golota weighed in for tomorrow night's massive fight in Poland

The cruiserweight champion Adamek, moving up for the money that this fight will bring, came in at a shade over 214 pounds. 41-year old Golota weighed in at 256, which is by far the heaviest weight of his career. I've said before that I have my doubts Golota is really taking this fight seriously, and that probably confirms it. His previous highest weigh-in was 249 against Jeremy Bates in 2007.

Bad Left Hook is going to TRY to have live coverage tomorrow, which will start at about noon eastern here in the States. For those in the New York City area, Brick says that Club Exit in Brooklyn will be showing the fight starting at 11:30am ET for a $20 cover charge.

I want to see this fight… should be good…

I can’t see Golota losing it Poland but Adamek is just better… and hopefully his chin will take a heavyweight punch…

I could see Golota losing in Poland, Hungary, Brazil and in Outer Space. That’s what losers do… they LOSE. Then Polish fans can officially get over the “Foul Pole” once and for all.

Besides which, St. Andrew has got a heart the size of a Swiss Miss marshmallow. Look for Golota to stop himself early. I give this mess three rounds and then it’s quittin’ time.

Your seething hatred for Andrew Golota tickles me.
