Weekend of heavyweight boxing!

A lot of prospects hitting the ring this weekend, with a number of intriguing ties going on.
Tom Schwartz and Agit Kabayal both take on stern tests in Berlin, with the latter taking on Miljan Rovcanin for the EBU title.
Unbeaten Otto Wallin takes on fellow Swede Adrian Granat, who was recently shocked in a first round washout by the experienced Dimitrenko, for another version of the EBU.
Other unbeaten prospects include Sergey Kuzmin and George Arias, who both have respectable fights.
Any of course, what is a weekend of boxing without Tomasz Adamek for the oddly named Republic of Poland International Heavyweight Title - especially considering his opponent is American.
Anything here stick out for anyone in particular?

Kind of surprised that Adamek is still lacing them up, even if it's only for something called the Polish International Heavyweight championship.
There's a lot of jokes there.
I thought Adamek was finished when he was whipped by Molina.
But he's undoubtedly the favorite to claim the Polish title this weekend and who knows? Maybe he'll work his way toward being a future Fury opponent.

He's fighting a big powerful but suckass fighter. But I think Abell can take him out.

1) Otto Wallin vs Adrian Granat - This is a very even match-up, and they would mutually be one another's best scalp. They are both somewhat young, and have one loss between them. This fight definitely matters.
2) Tomasz Adamek vs Joey Abell - This is a pretty even match-up. Only thing is, if Adamek wins, then it doesn't matter. If Abell wins, then... Adamek's been losing to a lot of gatekeepers lately, and it doesn't mean much.
3) Agit Kabayel vs Miljan Rovcanin - Rovcanin is good, but I'm pretty sure that Kabayel is very clearly better, so this might be a partial mismatch.
4) Tom Schwarz vs Senad Gashi - Gashi is a step-up for Schwarz, so this matters.
5) George Arias vs Tyrell Wright - Wright is a micro step-up for Arias. Doesn't matter much.
6) Oscar Rivas vs Sergio Ramirez - This is a step down for Rivas.
7) Sergey Kuzmin vs Jeremiah Karpency - This is a big step down for Kuzmin.
