IBF International Heavyweight Champion Tomasz Adamek, 42-1 with 27 KOs, held a media workout to promote his upcoming December 9th title defense at Prudential Center in Newark NJ, against Vinny Maddalone, Queens, NY, 33-6, 24 KO’s. Adamek feels his preparation is right where it should be at this time.
“I’ve been training hard for 7 weeks with Roger,” said Adamek. “I’m ready to fight.”
Adamek knows that his supreme conditioning has contributed to his successful career. He has also made it a priority to focus more on head movement during this training camp. “If I am quick, I can beat everybody,” declared Adamek.
Roger Bloodworth, Adamek’s trainer, believes his fighter is much faster in this training camp than his previous one.
“He’s a little more relaxed when he’s throwing his punches, so he’s faster,” stated Bloodworth. “His foot movement is a little bit better than it was. He’s getting a little bit better each camp.” Bloodworth added, “The only way you get more pop in your punch is with speed. He’s coming along; He’s doing it here.”

Kathy Duva, Main Events C.E.O., is really impressed by Adamek’s consistency in each fight.
“Some fighters fight on emotion, sometimes they rise to the occasion and he’s just been on a straight line, which is needed for a long, fruitful career,” said Duva. “He’s somebody who has a very sure sense of who he is and what he wants; He is a very stable individual in every way.”
