An Amazing Week of MMA and BOXING on GFL! 6 Exciting Shows
Saturday: Controversy over the Adamek v Estrada Results Tomasz Adamek is originally from Poland, but when he fights thousands of miles away at the Prudential Center in Newark, NJ, he is right at home. 10,123 screaming Polish fans packed the arena last night for his second fight at heavyweight and chanted non stop from the moment they entered the building; and they sure had a lot to cheer for.
Adamek retained his IBF International heavyweight title with a hard fought twelve round unanimous decision over 2004 US Olympian Jason “Big Six” Estrada. Estrada came out aggressive against Adamek, who is generally a slow starter, tagging the Secaucus, NJ based Pole with a plethora of overhand rights. Adamek started to take control of the pace beginning in the third, working off of multi punch combinations to Estrada’s head.
