    big time KO. We might not have a choice in a Wlad Adamek fight. Adamek is WBO #1 mand.... lets see if Adamek takes it or pulls a Povetkin (BTW.....I dont think he will back away like povetkin)

    Dont think for a second Adamek could beat either brother but i do wonder when the last time was that either brother would of faced somebody as mobile as Thomaz.

    All their opponants these days are big lumps who just stand still for them, no head movement no footwork nothing, static targets. Adamek should use this advantage more than he does but he will certainly use it more than the normal Klitchko opponant. Would be nice to see them having to face something a little different for once

    Dominic Guinn is not much different in size than Adamek at HW and he was able to knock Grant out.

    The difference of course is that Guinn stylistically isn't so reliant on a perfect 1-2. This seems to be Adamek's double edged sword.

    I also think Haye would have knocked Valuev out if he didn't fight so defensive the entire time.

    To beat a bigger man you need something which can generate power from the ground up. That or you aim your straight rights to his chest.

    I'm not so certain Adamek can do this. To me it sounds like he fought Grant like he did Arreola. Pretty much how he has fought his entire career (and why you don't typically see LHWs knocking out HWs).

    Sam Peter got to Wladimir by throwing from the ground up in the form of left hooks. When he tried to get to Vitali with straight rights it failed miserably. It just doesn't transition well when you have to punch so high. Straight rights are a good eye to eye kinda punch. You put your weight behind it and let it go. A left hook spirals upwards and the impact is in the rotation of your weight.

    Grant is still the same old Grant. It just appears to be that Adamek isn't cut out to be a Klitschko beater. He's far too orthodox to beat a man so much bigger than him with the kind of skill they have.

    Ya Grants height made it next to impossible for him to land his right cross, he only handed a handful all night and was reaching with them. He landed alot of good left hooks. He'd throw a 1-2 and then be in range after that to land his hook, i was waiting all night for him to follow that hook up with another right hand since he was in range now but it never happened.

    Against Wlad he'll be caught a lot on the way in trying to let his punches go, probably stopped on his feet in the mid rounds.

    He'll be a lot braver than any recent Wlad opponent, and it will ultimately be his downfall.

    Vitali has slipped a lot in the past couple of years - if Adamek can use raiding in and out tactics and get the old man moving around the ring he can cause major problems for Vitali's bolt upright straight lefts and rights style, maybe pull off a decision.

    If he stands in front of Vitali it's :hi:

    Again, he'll be braver than anybody else Vitali's been in with during his comeback.

    He is the perfect guy to beat either. He knows how to get around a jab and his chin is miles better than both of the brothers combined.

    i have big respect for adamek. even if his fights are close, that doesn't mean that he doesn't impress. He has allways the right game plan and executes it well.

    i think adamek has a good shot against evrybody in the division except the klitschkos.

    the haye fight is dangerous for adamek because, he has a good chin, but his chin can't hold up against the biggest punchers of the division. i think that haye can ko him in fast fashion, but adamek has a good shot to win a decision.

    against povetkin, chagaev, chambers it is a 50/50 fight.

    wladimir would stop adamek imo with a couple of right hands in the first 6 rounds.
    vitali would beat adamek by late ko in the 11th round, becuase of the punishment adamek will take.

    but adamek rulezzzzzzz

    Heavyweights SUCK big time, but the Klit bros are by far above the rest of them. I could see Adamek giving both a helluva time before getting stopped, although I think there is a much greater chance of him beatting Wlad because he tends to fall apart when a guy fights him back. The older Klit would simply maul Adamek and stop him in the mid rounds after losing most of them.
