The manager for heavyweight Tomasz Adamek says a deal is close to fight heavyweight title challenger Michael Grant. Ziggy Rozalski told thenews.pl that Adamek-Grant is 98% close to done for either August or September in Atlantic City or Newark.

“It’s 98 percent sure that the fight between Adamek and Grant will take place. Grant has already accepted our financial offer. His fight with Golota was incredible,” said Rozalski.

Adamek said the height of Grant and his long reach will be a good test to prepare him for a potential fight with a Klitschko brother, Wladimir or Vitali.

“Grant is a good boxer and a big guy. A fight with him will be a great test before a clash with Klitschko. I’ll have to give him a beating,” says Adamek.

I guess its an ok tune up for a bigger fight. He should KO Grant.

Bizarre. Grant is still probably relatively young, and was working as an assistant trainer so maybe he's improved. Lennox just ruined him, but he was able to retire off the $4 million payday he got for that fight.

At any rate, I salute Adamek and Kathy Duva for staying active instead of just sitting around waiting for a big money fight.

i agree .staying active not waiting around for other fighters is a good move.

Is this really the best they could come up with ? did they even bother to contact Haye ?

I would have preferred to see Highlander fight Haye, but Haye probably has his sights set on Audley. Either way, time to return to the Prudential Center with 10,000 drunken, singing Poles.

wow they seriously are bringing up Grant vs Golota like that means anything know


yikes

hope grant doesnt die

whos he with know? I dont know whos trained him since him and Teddy parted

I was l;ooking the other day and Grant has the longest reach I've ever heard of at 86 inches.

Good tune up for a Klitschko then, I still think Tony Thomson should be Adamek's next opponent.
