    I love how you completly decide who Adamek is a fighter based on 1 fight against a HUGE ****ing guy.

    Lets only look at David getting a gift vs Valuev and then run off that :thumbsup

    Even though the fight was relatively one sided and the right man was awarded the victory, most people have seemed to condemn Haye for one less than entertaining performance.

    Grant was mostly catching Adamek, countering with his jab, while Adamek was the one who was trying to go inside. Almost every Grant's right hand was missing the target, but few connected, you cant miss all the punches. When fighting Haye Adamek would have easier way go get to the chin, althought this chin would be much more mobile.

    I see it like first 2-3 rounds Adamek in really big troubles, if he survives, then Haye is in big troubles...

    How did David's defense look against Ruiz:think

    Fairly good. He didn't take too many clean shots again, and spent the majority of the fight jabbing and beating his opponent to death.

    1.58. How do you suppose Adamek takes that right hand?

    Valuev-Haye wasnt a one sided fight... Yes, the right man was awarded the victory, but if the result had gone in the other direction it shouldnt have surprised

    Let's imagine Peter v Adamek. Adamek does his good work for 4 or 5 rounds hitting the slower Peter who is chasing the quicker man around the ring. Adamek having moved around so much and hitting and not hurting Peter is beginning to tire. Peter is now able to press and pressure Adamek showing no respect for Adamek's power which has faded along with his stamina. Peter is walking through Adamek and hitting him with power shots. Unlike Grant who wasn't throwing, Peter will be throwing and landing heavy hard shots with greater frequency.

    Haye V Adamek Haye will counter Adamek with bombs. he won't wait until the later rounds, Haye will move and when Adamek misses he will get smashed. And Haye showed in the Valuev and Ruiz fights that he still has power late in the fights.

    Adamek is not that elusive folks, nor is he THAT powerful. He's a hard worker and is good when he is fresh for the first half of the fight, but he's not really beaten anyone of note in the Heavyweight division as yet, so to say he is the next best after the Klits is crazy!

    The hype will get jammed at some point. I admire Adamek as he's a fighters fighter and will take them all on if he could, but he's getting close to his limit now of how far he can go in the HW division, and I think he either stays around fighting bums, or drops back down, and fight the likes of Huck, Cunningham, Lebedev etc. Good fights still to be had at cruiser!

    Err yeah. For me his CW resume is streets ahead, KO ratio is a lot higher - obvious advantage in one punch power (see first punch he landed on Ruiz), fact that his stamina at HW is probably better than Adamek's at the mo, similar speed, Haye is probably more elusive as well, Haye is younger/fresher/been in fewer wars.

    For me only one winner, one method of victory - Haye wins before Round 10.

    As for him being scared - he WILL make much more against Harrison than Adamek (though admittedly he'll make more for Adamek than against Ruiz) and that is the ONLY reason for not taking Adamek next.

    people keep underestimating Adamek, but he keeps winning. His abilities were disrespected after Dawson, Cunningham, Gunn, Estrada and now Grant. But he's still there making little steps forward. Yes, he doesn't have enormous power and is kinda easy to hit, but somehow he has never been at least close from getting KO'd...
    The difference between Adamek and Haye is that Tomasz wants to FIGHT his way to a title shot instead of talking it... You guys praise Haye like he had beaten anyone really serious in his carrer.

    How is Haye in trouble late on? He stopped ruiz deep in to the fight, as his power and speed was still there. Haye won't be running around expending all his energy and I Adamek won't have an easy time trying to get inside. Who have you seen thats been able to get inside Haye and beat him up. Haye has only been beaten up once and that was by Thomson cos he punched himself out. Adamek will be the one who will be in trouble, from start to finish.

    Respect to Adamek - impressive career especially post Dawson, but Haye is simply slightly better in all aspects especially power and that would be the decider.

    Although, if there were more 'Adamek's' boxing would be far more enjoyable

    I agree with popejking. The first 2 or 3 rounds against Haye will be the roughest spots for Adamek.

    Tomasz has a superior chin, greater stamina, and a greater willingness to engage.
