Tomasz Adamek captures IBF title
NEWARK, N.J. — Tomasz Adamek unanimously outpointed Eddie Chambers in a 12-round bout Saturday night to capture the IBF North American heavyweight championship.
Adamek, a Polish fighter who lives in Kearny, N.J., has won two straight fights after losing a WBC heavyweight title fight to Vitali Klitschko last September in Poland.
Adamek improved to 46-2, receiving winning scores of 116-112, 116-112 and 119-109.
“The fight was very close, but I felt I fought my fight and I won the fight,” Adamek said. “I was looking to win the fight. If I start to look to knock someone out, you can lose. I felt I controlled the fight.”More info.
