~Bring on Adamek-Haye~BEST heavyweight fight that could be made!

Are you being serious or are you just playing on the irony of your claim?

Haye-Adamek

 

But what makes you think Haye can withstand Adamek's power?

I happen to think Adamek would probably beat Haye, but I can certainly envision a scenario with Haye winning. The way you're talking about Adamek is as if he were some C-level pug.

Adamek has some good pop, has great stamina, has proven his durability in the past, and knows how to throw punches in bunches.

What makes you think Haye will be able to walk threw his punches?

 

That's basically what I was going to say.

I don't think I've made any unreasonable claims when it comes to a potential Haye-Adamek super fight.

On the other hand, when people say Adamek has no skills....I have a hard time taking such views seriously.

Adamek is arguably a top 15 P4P fighter right now (a recent poll by Axe suggested many people already viewed him as such before he even dispatched of Golota).

Maybe Haye would beat Adamek, but for someone to say Adamek simply lacks skills is simply outside the realm of reason.

Exposed him?

Exposed him as what? A warrior with no quit in him?

You're downplaying chin and stamina here. Even if what you say is true, and Haye has an advantage in all of those other departments (a point I am not willing to concede, but for argument's sake)....

Adamek is fast enough, good enough on the outside (especially with his in-out fighting style, when he employs it), and has good enough footwork to be effective with the same strategy Haye used against Valuev.

The reason Haye did not do exactly what he did for the first three rounds, is probably a result of his stamina not quite being all that it should be. Add in Adamek's superior chin, and he is more willing to take risks.

It is true that taking additional risks against Valuev could have detrimental effects, but I think superior stamina and durability is something that could certainly help Adamek improve upon Haye's efforts against Valuev.

Agreed. Plus, it would likely be a hard-fought war with each fighter having his moments.

I said it today "On the Ropes" and I believe what I said--this would be a pick'em fight that is sure to bring fireworks.

 

I agree, the fight probably does not go the distance, but I think it's quite entertaining while it lasts, which I expect would probably be until at least the late middle rounds.
