"

Adamek moves around the ring perfectly, and he also has a big fighting heart. He is better than David Haye, and our struggle will certainly be better than my brother Wladimir's clash with the British fighter. I'm bigger, but I have to be faster and have better stamina. However, remember that I am the heavyweight boxer and I hit hard. Adamek says that speed is his advantage. So we'll see in the ring, which of us will be faster.
