    This is according to ESB. Just to reiterate, this fight will be on N-B-C (not NBC Sports), live in the afternoon.

    Whoa. I thought their first was an insane, razor thin classic. But, I think Adamek's going to do a demolition job on Cunningham, now. I really do. Adamek is actually more skilled now, as far as I can tell, although I think he's slower from the, in my opinion, bad judgment to bulk up so much, and from the ring wear. Still, Cunningham is worse off, now, I think. And even if he's always had more of a heavyweight frame than Adamek, I think we'll see he's worse suited to moving up at the stage of his career he moved up than Adamek, by far. But, I hope I'm wrong and we get another barn-burner. :D

    So, this is why the dropped the Solis fight I guess? ***** ass move on Solis by Adamek. No class guys, no class at all.

    As soon as Cunn decided to move to HW, I knew it was only a matter of time before these 2 fight a rematch. Should be another good one!:bbb

    Contracts were never signed. Didn't happen prob bc Solis didn't want to get another beatdown. Adamek surely didn't decide to fight someone else. Thats just not his style.

    ****! lame. Guess they realized how badly Adamek would look vs Solis.

    Oh well first fight with Cunningham was great but Cunningham is way past it and not as adjusted to HW. Adamek proly stops him.

    Awesome. I've been dying for the rematch since the first one ended.

    Could go either way. I think Adamek has been on a downhill slide since the Klitschko loss. Although, it'll be interesting to see the effect on Cunningham of the latest Hernandez loss.

    I can see Cunningham outboxing him.

    And then not getting a decision.

    I think this is a good choice for network TV. Good style matchups, plus guys on the downside who are likely to be less able on defense.

    Adamek has become way to hittable. I can see Steve winning a decision in the 8-4 7-5 range. If he puts on the weight good and gets a bit more power I can see him stopping Adamek.

    Adamek was way to hittable against walker and Steve is much quicker. If Steve's chin holds up this fight will be very interesting, hopefully better than the first !
