    Vitali Klitschko
    Wladimir Klitschko
    David Haye
    Alexander Povetkin
    Sam Peter
    Alexander Dimitrenko
    Ray Austin
    Robert Helenius


    Given how much trouble Adamek had with an over-the-hill, slow-as-hell Michael Grant can anyone seriously still think he's the #4 HW?

    He has little chance against the top three you mentioned. I'd favor Povetkin, and give Peter a live chance.

    Strange way to do a poll mate.

    He beats:
    Sam Peter
    Alexander Dimitrenko
    Ray Austin
    Robert Helenius

    He loses:
    Vitali Klitschko
    Wladimir Klitschko
    David Haye

    Could go either way:
    Povetkin

    He doesn't beat Haye or the Klits. Although I have always rated him very highly.

    Adamek isn't going to get anywhere against the K brothers, against Haye or Povetkin is a toss-up, he beats Peter and the rest

    he beats 4-5. Loses to someone you missed out, Eddie Chambers.

    Adamek beats Austin and Peter, of that list.

    The Helenus guy, I've never seen fight

    .

    The rest of that list would beat Adamek. Chambers would, too.

    Should have made it mulitple choice and listed the names.

    He loses to both Klits, Haye and Povetkin for me. I'm not sure he could take Sam Peter's power either - as long as he looks decent against Wlad and goes into an Adamek fight in around 235-240.

    Haven't seen enough of Helenius to comment. Haven't seen Austin for a while but I would imagine Adamek beats him. Could edge Dimitrenko.

    he beats austin and i make him favourate vs dimidtrenko and helenius

    also give peter a good fight but for me would lose same with povetkin

    klits and haye are far to good and strong and in hayes case quick for him to competitive

    Man, can Haye get anymore overrated??? The guy is walking ring rust with no "cheen" or stamina.

    I won't pick any, I would like to see them fight in ring instead. Sorry to be cranky, but I am tired of us on here matching guys up, then not having them ever fight. I hope Adamek succeeds, division can always use more good contenders.

    Ray Austin has done zilch that I know of since icing Golota in 2008.....

    Sam Peter is already peaked and is regressing in 2010.....

    Al Povetkin is a Pillsbury Doughboy who lacks confidence and balls.....

    Alex Dimitrenko is very stiff and limited......

    NOTE:

    As long as Tommy Adamek doesn't get clipped and nailed in there, he can out-box these dude's listed above........ Adamek MIGHT be able to beat Dave Haye, but he'll never get by the K-bros........

    He surely loses:
    Vitali Klitschko
    Wladimir Klitschko
    David Haye
    Robert Helenius
    Alekxander Povetkin

    He maybe beats:
    Sam Peter
    Alexander Dimitrenko
    Ray Austin

    Hed get ktfod by the klitchkos
    I have more respect for Adamek than Haye but id pick Haye to win this.
    Povetkin:think This is a good matchup might lean towards Povetkin
    If Peter comes in motivated and in shape he kos Adamek,Adamek outboxes an out of shape Peter
    Id pick Adamek over Dimitrenko who dont seem to be anything that great
    Hed probably outbox Austin however id give Austinagood punchers chance

    Helenius is unproven id have to take Adamek here.

    WHat about Chambers? Hed probably beat Adamek. Tony thompson might too.
