McBride to face Adamek

6 February 2011

Thomasz Adamek will fight Kevin McBride at the Prudential Center, Newark, NJ on April 23.

“There were a lot of things taken into consideration when choosing this fight,” Kathy Duva, CEO Main Events and Adamek’s promoter said.

Overall, though, Tomasz was just more comfortable staying at home for this fight. We’ll now focus on McBride, and then focus all of our efforts into the big one in September.

“I think that his fans at Prudential Center will give Tomasz a great send off to Poland in this fight, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see some of them in Poland in September.”

Adamek will be happy to give his “hometown” fans an opportunity to watch him fight before his scheduled September Klitschko fight.
