Post Fight Quotes From Jason Estrada:

“If everyone in this room were completely honest with themselves you would all admit that I got robbed. I mean I got played. I might as well have had a gun pointed to my head. At best I give Adamek three of the twelve rounds. I seriously think the last judge doesn’t need to judge anymore. Yeah I’m angry. I fought my a_ _ off. I trained harder than I ever have. I was in the best shape I’ve ever been in. People talked about me possibly running out of gas, but I never did. All he (Adamek) did was run. If I learned one thing tonight it was that I can’t go into anyone’s hometown to fight. What do I have to do bring a gun?”

Quotes from Tomasz Adamek:

“It was the best Jason Estrada I’ve ever seen in my life. He was 50 percent better today, than he when he fought a top three heavyweight like Alexander Povetkin. Quick, with a good defense and a very hard head. It was extremely difficult to locate precise punches, because of his defense. Maybe, I should have use more than three punches combination, maybe risk a little more? I wanted to do it, but my trainer Andrzej Gmitruk was telling me all the time in the corner to be more boxer than puncher, avoid his punches first, then use different temp to throw him of his strategy. It was another test in heavyweight division, versus very difficult to fight boxer. “

Heavyweight contender Tomasz Adamek (39-1, 27 KOs) held a media workout Tuesday to promote his February 6th fight at Prudential Center in Newark, NJ, against Jason “Big Six” Estrada (16-2, 4 KOs). Adamek is training at the World Boxing Gym and Fitness Center in Jersey City, NJ. In regard to Estrada’s comments that Adamek will have a problem with his hand speed, Adamek commented, “I’m fast too! I think I am stronger. He must know this: my jab is very strong and my right has the most power.”

When asked about his weight now and whether he prefers cruiserweight or heavyweight, Adamek stated, “This weight is natural for me so its very comfortable. I’m eating more and I am not hungry. For the fight maybe I will weigh what I weigh today which is 222 lbs. This is my natural weight which makes me happier when I go into training. Cruiserweight was more difficult for me because I always had a problem getting to the weight, especially when I was 175. I feel very good at this weight; I feel faster.

Promoter Dan Goossen informed boxingtalk.com that Chris Arreola (28-1, 25 KO) most likely will face Tomasz Adamek (37-1, 26 KO) on HBO's Boxing After Dark on April 24.

TOMASZ ADAMEK LATEST NEWS >>

Currently this fight is in works and nothing is decided yet, but Tomasz Adamek is the short list of opponents.

Tomasz Adamek (39-1, 27 KO) is getting heavier and heavier before his upcoming fight against Jason Estrada (16-2, 4 KO) scheduled on February 6 in Newark. According to the interiew given to the Polsat News channel, "Goral" currently weighs 101 kilograms (223 lb) and feels that his muscles are still growing.

The best Polish heavyweight is being prepared to the bout by the tandem of coaches. Andrzej Gmitruk who stands in Adamek's corner for years will remain the head trainer and Roger Bloodworth who joined the team recently is there to assist.

- There will be no conflicts between me and Gmitruk. I'm not a quarrelsome man. I can get on well with everybody – said Bloodworth, previously known as a coach of another Polish heavyweight, Andrew Golota. - At this stage of his career, Adamek needs a whole team working for him. A coach exists for a fighter, not the other way around.

Roger Bloodworth, known as a former Andrew Golota’s coach, joined the training staff of Tomasz Adamek (39-1, 27 KO)  who is preparing for the fight against Jason Estrada (16-2, 4 KO) scheduled on February 6 in Newark. Thus, Bloodworth became an assistant of Andrzej Gmitruk who stands in Adamek’s corner for years. The trio is completed by Ralph Mendez responsible for physical strengthening of the Polsih heavyweight.

Recently, Gmitruk announced  that Adamek needs to engage a new trainer constantly watching over his fit in the United States while he is busy promoting professional boxing in Poland. Accordingly, the main coach of “Goral” fully understands the choice. It is worth adding that Bloodworth was recommended by Ziggy Rozalski himself.

- It’s necessary to bring to life a whole staff  around a fighter who presents such a high level as Tomasz Adamek and it’s normal. Even famous Freddie Roach, during coaching Oscar De La Hoya, had some people who helped him in Oscar’s preparation – said Gmitruk interviewed by BOKSER.ORG. The coach will join Adamek team on the January 3.

Former two-division world champion Tomasz Adamek (37-1, 27 KO), now campaigning as a heavyweight, hosted a “Meet and Greet” at Jersey Gardens Mall, Elizabeth, NJ. In anticipation of his upcoming fight against Providence Rhode Island’s, Jason Estrada (16-2, 4 KOs) on February 6, 2010 at Prudential Center in Newark, Adamek signed autographs and posed for photos with excited fight fans.

Here’s a chance for all the last minute shoppers to meet former two-division world champion and current heavyweight contender Tomasz ‘Goral’ Adamek (37-1, 27 KO). Adamek will host a “Meet and Greet” at Jersey Gardens Mall, 651 Kapkowski Road, Elizabeth, NJ 07201 Lower Level Center Court, this Wednesday (12/23) from 6:30pm-7:30pm.

On February 6th at Prudential Center in Newark, NJ, Adamek will take on Jason “Big Six” Estrada (16-2, 4 KOs) in a 12 rounder.

After demolishing Andrew Golota, former light heavyweight and cruiserweight champion Tomasz Adamek (37-1, 27 KO) will stay in the heavyweight ranks against Jason “Big Six” Estrada (16-2, 4 KOs) on February 6 at the Prudential Center in Newark.

- Jason Estrada is a completely different fighter than Andrew Golota - stated Adamek - obviously younger, much faster, he can throw 60 punches a round. Against Estrada you have to be on your guard all the time, in every round. I did see his fight against world-class fighter Alexander Povetkin, Jason was busy, he wanted to fight - exactly what I like to do in the ring ... the difference between me and Povetkin will be very evident - I will do everything required to do what nobody has done to Jason before - knock him down. He’s never fought anybody as quick and accurate - I will not be intimidated by the number of punches he throws in every round - I welcome it!

Tomasz ‘Goral’ Adamek (37-1, 27 KO), the lineal and Ring Magazine cruiserweight champion, after knocking down powerful, four- time world boxing heavyweight championship contender, Andrew Golota twice in Poland, continues his quest to further his heavyweight career. On February 6th at Prudential Center in Newark, NJ, Adamek will take on Jason “Big Six” Estrada (16-2, 4 KOs) of Providence, Rhode Island, in a 12 round IBF Heavyweight International Championship fight. The fight is promoted by Main Events and Ziggy Promotions in association with Classic Entertainment and Sports Inc.

Tomasz Adamek's next bout will be a heavyweight fight against former U.S. Olympian Jason "Big Six" Estrada. As previously announced, the matchup will take place in Newark, New Jersey on February 6.

Adamek, the former light heavyweight titlist and cruiserweight champ, will be staying at heavyweight, at least for now.  While he was facing an old and faded opponent, Adamek looked nothing short of spectacular in blitzing fellow Pole Andrew Golota last month.  This fight would present a completely different kind of challenge.  While Estrada is a big guy, he has next to no power, but is a very good boxer who can throw 80 punches a round.  Considering that Adamek has had fights where his workrate has been quite low, this makes Estrada somewhat of a dangerous fight for Adamek.  In both of Estrada's previous losses against Travis Walker and Alexander Povetkin, Estrada was the busier fighter, but his opponent won the fight by landing the much harder punches.  Adamek will need to keep that up if he wants to beat Estrada.

It appears that Jason Estrada (16-2, 4KOs), who last yeard dropped a decision to Alexander Povetkin, is in play to face Tomasz Adamek (39-1, 27KOs) on February 6 at Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey.

The second heavyweight fight for Adamek since blasting out fellow Pole Andrew Golota in five rounds back in October. Estrada will not be as easy. He doesn't have much power but he can box and seems to have a decent chin. He should be a much tougher heavyweight test than Golota, who was nothing more than a willing target.

Look at heavyweight: For the time being, Tomasz Adamek is still the reigning, real world champion at cruiserweight. But his October domination of Andrew Golota and his stated intentions to stay up there with the big boys means that's probably going to be short-lived. Adamek says he wants to fight the Klitschkos, and thinks he'll be ready in about a year. In the meantime, there are plenty of interesting opportunities for him, though he might have to base himself in Europe again in the short term to take full advantage of what's out there. I think one interesting idea might be a bout with Alexander Dimitrenko, whose size (6'7", 250ish, 83" reach) matches up to Wladimir and Vitali even if his skill doesn't. Dimitrenko was outboxed in July by Eddie Chambers, who isn't any bigger than Adamek.

Here’s what cruiserweight champion Tomasz Adamek had to say after stopping heavyweight Andrew Golota in five rounds on Saturday in Lodz, Poland. “I will never forget this moment, fighting in front of almost 17 thousand Polish fans against a Polish legend that went through many great battles. It was a meaningful night for me. By beating Andrew Golota I made a statement about my power. I wanted to show how good I can be as a heavyweight. I got hit couple of times pretty hard, but I was never in danger. Looks like my iron chin will work for me in a higher weight class also.”

In “The Polish Fight of the Century”, Tomasz “Goral” Adamek (39-1, 27 KOs) notched his soundest career victory to date with a huge fifth round TKO over Andrzej Golota (41-8-1, 33 KOs) in front of the partisan crowd at Atlas Arena in Lodz, Poland. Making his heavyweight debut, two-time world champion in light heavyweight and cruiserweight divisions Adamek looked huge in the first, circling around much slower but also much bigger Golota, throwing multiple combinations, which easily penetrated The Foul Pole’s unsteady defense. Golota was floored at the end of the round by what seemed to be more a push than a legitimate punch on Adamek’s behalf.

Amidst much fanfare and Hollywood style glitz, Tomasz Adamek and Andrew Golota had their final press conference and weigh-in today. Golota weighed in at 256 pounds, Adamek at 214.2 pounds. The fight takes place tomorrow at Arena Lodz, in Lodz, Poland and will be televised in Poland, on Polsat TV.

IBF cruiserweight champion Tomasz Adamek arrived in Poland today. Adamek will face Andrew Golota in Polish “Fight of the Century” on October 24 in Lodz.

IBF cruiserweight champion Tomasz Adamek has made a bold move up to heavyweight to face the best Polish heavyweight ever, Andrew Golota, on Saturday, Oct. 24 in the new Lodz Arena in Lodz, Poland. Golota and Adamek appeared at a media-packed press conference on Tuesday at the Warsaw Marriott to announce what the Polish media have dubbed as, “The Polish Fight of the Century.” Interest for this fight is so great in Poland that three national television outlets carried the press conference live.

- My fight with Andrew Golota will take place in Lodz on October 24.- the IBF junior heavyweight champion Tomasz Adamek revealed in an interview for the BOKSER.ORG website.

- I'm glad I finally learned the date for this fight.- the popular “Highlander” said- I want to show some quality boxing. The spectators in Lodz will see that I am a true warrior when in the ring.

Facing the much heavier and much more experienced Andrew Golota will be a real challenge for Adamek.

- I'm currently discussing the tactics for the fight against Andrew with my coach, Andrzej Gmitruk.- the Gilowice-born, but living in the US fighter says.- I will do the training in the States, I'll come to Poland with 12 to 14 days left to the fight.

A press conference concerning the Adamek - Golota fight is scheduled for this Tuesday in Warsaw.

Tomasz Adamek (36-1, 24 KOs) is to have his first IBF cruiserweight title defense on February 27, in the Prudential Center hall in Newark, NJ. He will face an American fighter, the as yet unbeaten Johnathon Banks (20-0, 14 KOs).

Here's a transcription of an interview with "The Highlander", who will defend in the forthcoming fight not only his IBF belt, but also the top place among the world's boxers in the 200 lb limit.

Michal Koper: Tomek, BJ Flores backed out from facing you at the last minute. Was such a turn of events a disappointment for you?
Tomasz Adamek: It's a rare occasion that somebody offered a title shot resigns from it. Apparently the guy judged the challenge to be too steep and he decided to bide his time.

On December 11, in Newark, Tomasz Adamek (35-1, 24 KO) will step into the ring to face the IBF world champion Steve Cunningham (21-1, 11 KO).

The Polish boxer has been preparing for this, the greatest challenge of his life so far, in the States – he moved there with his family in August and plans to remain in the US for a longer while.

Here's the interview we obtained from Tomasz on Saturday.

Michał Koper: Tomek, you moved to the USA some months ago. How are you feeling about that?

Tomasz Adamek: This is not the first time in the States for me. I came here on  extended stays prior to a number of my previous fights. All my business afffairs are in good order. I feel right at home in America.

MK: How are your preparations for the Cunningham fight coming along?

TA: I am very well prepared. Andrzej Gmitruk says I'm even faster than I was before my last fight. And when I have the speed, everything works out OK. Soon I will demonstrate my abilities in the ring.
