Adamek: "Chris Arreola Will Be a Difficult Opponent"

BoxingScene.com previously reported that two-division champion Tomasz "Goral" Adamek (39-1) is in talks to face one of the best American heavyweights in Chris "The Nightmare" Arreola (28-1), on April 24 on HBO. Adamek took the time to discuss the potential fight.

"Every fighter is a difficult opponent. Everything goes in the wash. You walk into a boxing ring and fight until you can tell whether the fight was as difficult as you previously thought, or not. It is difficult to say today how to Arreola would behave in the ring. Certainly he is a hard opponent who will be tough to beat. For this fight we would have to prepare very well to outwork him in the ring and win. " - said Tomasz Adamek.

Polish heavyweight confirmed in an interview with us that his fight with Arreola is inevitable and, therefore, will be waiting for him in what should be a very busy year. Adamek has not made it a secret that he is very satisfied with the proposals that were presented by HBO.

"If HBO is calling us to propose a specific date and the opponent, we know that the fight will surely happen. I'm in the U.S. for a year, and yesterday they officially offered me a fight with Arreola. If HBO is calling for Ziggy then everything is already done. The heads of HBO have already talked with the promoter of Arreola, who agreed to the fight, and then phoned to us. They knew that we were waiting to fight with someone from the top. It's not that they are calling someone with loose question, they are calling with a concrete proposal. We have taken this suggestion regarding Arreola and so the fight will take place. "- said Tomasz Adamek.
