Can anyone tell me who these boxers were?

I don't watch a lot of boxing, but I saw a great--and I mean great--fight once that I'd like to try to find on the web, if it's there, to watch again.

It was an undercard to a Valuev fight, and happened either in '06 or '07, I think. It was two white guys, one American and one Polish. They pretty much went the entire duration of the match standing next to each other pummeling in a manner that's hard to even describe.

I can't remember Valuev's opponent, so googling it would be complicated...just wondering if anybody knows who they were. Thanks for any reply.

Do you mean a Polish guy and an Australian guy?

On the card with Barrett vs. Valuev, Tomasz Adamek fought Paul Briggs.

It was a great fight - a brutal war, with both standing in fron of each other slugging it out for the entire 12 rounds. It finished as a MD win for Adamek.

Yes! Thanks man!

Good lord. I just watched the couple of clips that Youtube had and this fight is even more brutal than I remember. These dudes must have hated each other to go to war like this. I remember this was a rematch--does anyone know if their first fight was anywhere near THIS good?

The end of the fight isn't on Youtube, but if I remember right, the broadcast I watched it on said that the fighters combined for over one thousand delivered punches. And they sure didn't pull any!
