    Haye will KO Adamek and it will look impressive. If a busted old Grant can hurt him and a fat Arreola can too as well as soon light heavyies, then Haye should Ko him in 4.

    because obiously it's impossible to KO Haye, as his chin is made of steel...

    He'd still have a good chance against Haye, but the Grant fight confirmed he should stay well away from the Klits.

    He would be in with a good shot with Haye,I dont think he will get the fight though.I still think Audley will Haye`s next fight.

    That's true,however the mainstream british newspapers are **** poor when it comes to reporting about boxing.I think allot of the newspapers have been listing a bit too much to barry hearn who is trying to make out this is a done deal.

    If anybody gets knocked out, I think it will be the guy who has been knocked out before.

    Arreola is fat but he is still one of the hardest hitters in today's HW division

    Maybe, but even if that's true I'm not sure it really means anything.

    Adamek will have a much easier time finding Haye's chin, so just because Adamek did not win by KO against Grant does not mean he won't beat Haye by KO.

    A lot of British fans will want Adamek to win anyway.

    I've not seen yesterday's fight yet..... judging by the reports it seemed Adamek seemed to struggle to get his right hand going at times.

    Haye isn't the easiest to catch clean, but at least he's roughly the same size and has similar reach...... the main issue to me is how Adamek deals with Haye's speed and power.

    Haye isn't exactly renowned for having great stamina, hence his low output in most fights..... his chin clearly isn't all that either.

    Get it signed!

    Adamek is a legit contender, if Haye is going to fight him i´ve no problem with that.
    Style wise it perhaps would be cherrypicking but Adamek is still the by far best opponent Haye has ever faced.
    Klits, Peter, Johnson, Chagaev, Povetkin, Solis would stop Haye though. On towel or by KTFO.

    This is true and I noted that in my fight report. He landed one good right hand in the first and I think he pretty much relied on the left hook after that until around the 11th round.

    He could have problems, but the flip side is also true.


    I don't think Haye will risk it. Adamek is an accurate puncher. Grant is just a huge dude.

    How would he fare against Vitali - who IMO has slipped a lot since he came back?

    Do you believe he's got enough power to knock Haye out?
