    Or is his speed a bit above average and more the sufficient for CW?

    He's not slow by any means. Especially for a cruiser.

    I think he has above average speed when he uses it.People who say he's slow havent watched him fight or have an agenda.That straight right he throws is fast,powerfull and accurate,the left hook isnt bad either.Theres a reason Hopkins and Jones changed their minds once they took a closer look,and it aint because he's slow.

    He's fast enough in terms of foot work and handspeed.

    He has decent speed imo. Shame he's wide open for lots of shots but thats his style and he has the chin to back it up. Adamek-Haye at CW would've been a great fight to see.

    Jones and Hopkins wanted the money more than the fight. Adamek didn't want to give it to them.

    He is fast for a CW. At LHW he was above avg but noticibly slower than Chad Dawson.

    You cant say he's slow , when the right which destroyed banks was almost invisible

    I dont think i could agree with Hopkins doing it for the money.Adamek was more than reasonable with his offer of 1.5 mil to 4.5 mil. split for Hopkins.So instead of taking home 5.5 mil he takes home 4.5 mil. and cant live with that.Just doesnt seem to be a plausable reason unless money means more to Hopkins than it does to the Bush clan. As far as Jones goes,the negotiations never got to the financial point before it ended,so i dont see how that could be a reason.

    Adamek is deceptive.. not only when it comes to speed.

    Attention all Poles!!!!!!!!

    Go out & buy the new issue of Ring Mag., cause there is a terrific article with good pics about Adamek. They really say alot of good things about him. In & out of the ring.

    Don't worry that it costs $8.95!

    :happy
