Tomasz Adamek prepared for his Friday night SHOWTIME, ShoBox: The New Generation fight with an open workout on Monday at the C.O.M.B.A.T Club House Gym in Newark, N.J. Adamek is 36-1 with 24 KOs. The fight will air live at 11 p.m. ET/PT, delayed on the west coast.
Said Banks Monday: “I’m a boxer, that’s what I do, the difference is, I can punch. Sparing with Wladimir (Klitschko) taught me how to deal with punches, I’m well equipped to win this fight. Look for an explosive fight; most of all don’t blink!”
NOTE: In the 12-round ShoBox co-feature, Giovanni Lorenzo (26-1, 18 KOs), of New York City via the Dominican Republic, will be opposed by Dionisio Miranda (19-3-2, 17 KO’s) of Barranquilla, Colombia, in an IBF middleweight elimination bout. The winner could next face challenge champion Arthur Abraham.
