Tomasz Adamek, David Haye and The Klitschko Brothers

It’s been nearly two weeks since Tomasz “Granite Chin” Adamek defeated Chris “The Nightmare” Arreola by a majority decision at Citizens Business Bank Arena in Ontario, CA.

Adamek (41-1, 27 Kos) is now on a crusade to fight any titlist available on the heavyweight landscape.

“I am ready for everybody” said Adamek, 33, who dedicated his victory over Arreola (28-2, 25 KOs) to those who perished April 10 in the plane crash near Smolensk Airport in western Russia.

Adamek has specifically concentrated his focus on WBA champ David Haye (24-1, 22 KOs), WBC titlist Vitali Klitschko (39-2, 37 KOs) and IBF, WBO, IBO and Ring Magazine king Wladimir Klitschko (54-3, 48 KOs).

“I am positive if the fight against David Haye comes to fruition, two things, speed and my precision will prevail,” said Adamek, who has now won ten consecutive bouts. “So this will be a very interesting fight. You shouldn’t worry about how the fight will look. It will be a very exciting fight.”

Adamek would have a legitimate chance to trump Haye, who is essentially a ballooned cruiserweight.

However, he could never manage to beat either Klitschko brother.

Granted, Adamek is tough and, by absorbing Arreola’s mammoth shots last weekend, he validated his “Granite Chin” nickname.

Nevertheless, Arreola (28-2, 25 KOs) rocked Adamek on a slew of occasions and if “The Nightmare” was in even adequate condition, he would have been able to capture and pound the elusive Adamek.

“When I see a professional athlete in that kind of shape, I just shake my head with disgust,” said Brad Sherwood, 29, a personal trainer at Gold’s Gym in Medford.

Tomasz Adamek is a competent fighter who could easily overwhelm the bulk of the current crop of heavyweights.

However, Adamek’s “Granite Chin” would be shattered by either Klitschko brother.

Instead, it would be wise for Adamek to focus his efforts on securing a matchup with Haye.
