Tomasz Adamek returned to the ring after losing his WBC light-heavyweight title to Chad Dawson, earlier tonight in Slaskie Poland against top crusierweight contender Luis Pineda. Adamek looked very impressive in executing what seemed to be a carefully thought out game plan. 6/14/2007 6:34 AM

Moments ago in Slaskie Poland, popular polish heavyweight contender Andrew Golota returned to the ring after a two year absence easily knocking out trial horse Jeremy Bates in two rounds. Golota came to the ring looking bone dry and not properly warmed up in an arena with no air condition. 6/14/2007 6:33 AM
