Klitschko vs. Adamek will take place in the newly built soccer arena of Wroclaw where the UEFA EURO 2012 will happen. Poland and Ukraine are both organizers of the European soccer championship. Vitali and Wladimir Klitschko are already „Friends of EURO 2012“and thus official ambassadors of the tournament. Vitali is also a member of the local organizing committee of Ukraine.
„Adamek is very experienced, fast and a hard punching opponent. It is fantastic that a Polish and a Ukrainian boxer will be together in the ring to set the first sports highlight in the run down to the EURO 2012“, says Vitali Klitschko.
Tom Loeffler of K2 Promotions, “We have promoted Klitschko fights in the highest profile arenas throughout the world, from Madison Square Garden in NY to Staples Center in LA and the largest soccer stadiums throughout Germany. Klitschko fights are huge events on the world stage and we are excited to bring a heavyweight championship fight to one of the new soccer stadiums in Poland, it should be a great atmosphere.”
Tomasz Adamek "I am very happy. I would like to thank the Klitschko's for being very generous with the percentage offer. I am looking forward to this fight."
