Klitschkos agree next fight - but its not Haye again!

David Haye's hopes of unifying the heavyweight division before his planned October retirement have been hit by the Klitschko brothers' latest fight deal.
Tomasz Adamek, 34, will challenge one of the world champion Klitschkos in Poland in September.

Wladimir Klitschko, the IBF and WBO champion, fights Britain's Dereck Chisora on 30 April and WBC belt-holder Vitali meets Odlanier Solis in March.
It means WBA champion Haye is running out of time to face the Ukrainian pair.

Haye, 30, had been close to agreeing a 2 July date with Wladimir before the younger Klitschko brother opted to face the inexperienced Chisora in Germany.

If both Klitschkos were to lose their next fights, the deal with Adamek would be dead. If one loses, Adamek would face the other brother. If both brothers win, the choice of Adamek's opponent would be decided by the Klitschko side.
Poland's Adamek has one defeat in 44 fights with 38 knockouts and his fight with a Klitschko brother will take place at one of the venues built in his homeland for the 2012 European Championships.

"I am very happy," said Adamek, a former light-heavyweight and cruiserweight world champion.
"I would like to thank the Klitschkos for being very generous with the percentage offer. I am looking forward to this fight.

The bit I find interesting about this is that Adamek says that the K brothers have been very generous with their offer - do you think he had to say this as part of his contract!

Will Haye ever fight a Klitschko or has this finally ended any hope?

Doesn't seem likely if Haye continues with his plan to retire in October.

~Why sir, nobody but a silly giggle of Brits gives a fig leave for Mr. David to cover himself with.

The brothers have moved on to cleaning out the remainders of what are left in the division. Mr. Adamek is the superior boxer by credentials, so now history will be made by this first ever heavyweight championship in Poland.

Mr. David has more pressing details to occupy him such as to rematch or not rematch Mr. Harrison, or move on to Mr. Jones or Mr. Field, or perhaps Mr. Foreman can be enticed with the right offer. There is always plenty of fresh faced hope lined up for Mr. David to have a pop at.

Does Wlad usually sign his next fight before his current one has taken place?

the two of them seem to hold so much sway that it doesnt surprise me.

Its amazing how the heavyweight dollar seems to havve moved from the states to Germany.

Shame.
