After Adamek - Grant, What's Your Prediction For Adamek Against Wlad or Vitali??

Adamek needs to target Haye, and forget about the brothers.

 

Both stop him, badly.

 

After the first 5 or 6 rounds I was starting to think Adamek might be ready to make it a competetive fight at the very least. Now I don't really think he's ready. I think Vlad would do what Grant could not really do. He'd keep Tomasz at range with his jab, and ultimately beat seven shades of **** out him.


But, **** IT!!! WAR GORAL!!!

 

Complete waste wasn't it. He'd walk Adamek down so Adamek was in punching range...then try to use his long reach? Didn't make sense. Grant had the chance to finish it at the end but got very wreckless.

 

I hate to say it because I'm a big fan of Adamek now, but it's not looking good for Adamek against the Klits. Wladimir's consistent jab would punish Adamek and the right hands would probably finish him around the 9th round.

 

If Sosnowski could go 10 with Vitali you would think Adamek could "action and out" 10 rounds also.

 

Well, he could.

Yes, Sosnowski went 10 rounds....but I felt that Vitali was in control
the entire time.

If Adamek fights that come forward, keep punching style he did tonight, it heavily favors Vitali, imo.

 

Yep I noticed the same thing, he's got a **** load of height, reach, solid 260lbs and couldn't throw that jab with any sting! that why he couldn't set nothing up off it, he was only effective when Adamek started to tire and he was able to connect with the right, but he barely landed a jab in anger!

 

How many ex light heavies could starch Grant? That's like saying why didn't Haye starch Valuev. Come on man.

 

Man I knew Adamek wasn't gonna score a ko. Many infact were predicting it, negating the size difference! If anything Grant could have got a KO if he just stepped on the gas earlier.

 

My prediction is the same it was. He loses against either Klitschko, and most probably by KO. Althought, considering Vitali's age (needed 10 rounds to dispose of Sosnowski) and Wlad's style, a loss by wide UD is also possible.

Still, I expected Adamek to be more dominant against Grant. An opponent who failed anytime he fought anyone from the top even when in his prime... and still had Adamek hurt and won a couple of rounds.

 

Probably not many, that's true. Although (and I really don't like to compare fights, because styles make fights), the 218lb Guinn did KO Grant.

I do like Adamek though......he's in the ring, giving it his all, and I like his work ethic. A lot more than can be said for certain other heavyweights such as Povetikin and Haye.

 

If Adamek wants to win against either brother he should improve his boxing inside. Adamek is a great outside boxer, but against boxers who are much bigger than him, he cannot box from distance. I see that his left hook is good and his right hand is decent. Its not enough for Klitschkos. To beat one, you need to have a true KO power in (at least) one of your hands. I believe that Adamek and Roger finds the way to improve the power.


However Adamek punching rate will always frustrate the opponent :good

 

Vitali was in control, just like Tomas would be control of Sosnowski as well.

BTW, I always favored VK over Wlad. My thought is when the tought gets going Vitali rules.

 

Adamek/Haye is the most compelling fight in the division. It should happen immediately.
