    I know I'm very much in the minority, but I have to say that I found it boring as hell.

    It was exciting watching Adamek disassemble Nipples. But IDK if he beats this current, rededicated version.

    I'd like to see a rematch before CA takes his asskicking from Wlad late this year, but I doubt the cuts Adamek sustains from the Vitali fight will be healed in time to let Arreola squeeze him in.

    Adamek, brave as he is, is a pretty damn boring fighter at HW: run, run, run, potshot, run, run....etc.,etc. It doesn't make for a great fight.

    you havent watched boring fights then... TYSON FURY VS CHISORA WAS BORING... adamek vs arreola was active and contained 2 of the top 10 HWs at the time. You're just ignorant man... I don't know how you can call a fight boring if, at the end of the fight, arreola's face looks like shrek and neither stopped fighting.

    No it wasn't. Neither fighter looked highly skilled, but it was not boring.

    As for Arreola - Adamek...good exciting fight.

    You're clearly a fan boy: it was boring as shite for a heavy weight fight. Clearly you have zero idea what the HW division used to be.

    I've no idea why anyone pretends otherwise.

    I get the feeling most the folks voting 'Exciting' don't remember or are not old enough to remember what HW boxing used to be like.

    Sweet Nostalgia.....people tend to remember the best of times when they look back on things.

    Not every fight back in the day was exciting simply because it was back in the day.

    no **** i know how the HW fights used to be. That **** was on another level. We are clearly passed that intensity and excitement. So I as a fan of HW still, have dropped my standards of boxing to nowadays. The fight was exciting to me because I root for adamek and it was his first big test in a division. Sorry if you dont find it exciting, maybe you shouldn't watch HW anymore. It's what we all got left in this division anymore...
