Tomasz "Tomek" Adamek (Polish pronunciation: ˈtɔmaʂ aˈdamɛk; born 1 December 1976) is a Polish professional boxer. He is a former world champion in two weight classes, having held the WBC light heavyweight title from 2005 to 2007, and the IBF, and Ring magazine cruiserweight titles from 2008 to 2009. He also held the IBO title in 2007. Additionally he has challenged once for the WBC heavyweight title in 2011. BoxRec ranks Adamek as the greatest Polish fighter of all time, pound for pound. Adamek is the first Polish boxer to win a Ring title.Adamek was born in Żywiec, Poland, and currently resides in Kearny, New Jersey.Adamek made his professional boxing debut on 13 March 1999 in Manchester, England against Israel Khumalo. He won by TKO in the first round.Adamek won the vacant WBC light-heavyweight title defeating Paul "Firepower" Briggs by majority decision on 21 May 2005. The fight was described by some as one of the most brutal in recent memory, as Briggs suffered a large cut above his left eye early in the fight and Adamek bled profusely from his nose for much of the fight as well. Adamek tended to be the aggressor and won the fight. On 15 October 2005, he defended his title against German boxer Thomas Ulrich by knockout in Round 6.He then defended his title in a rematch with Paul Briggs in 2006, again winning by majority decision.
