    Golota had no glass jaw. :nono

    Wasnt iron, but by no means was it glass. He had a decent chin, and took some big shots.

    If Golota had Adameks heart I believe Golota could have been ATG at heavyweight. I'm sure Bloodworth is thinking the same thing having been in both guys' camps.

    People didn't want Kalada to be anything. Andrew came to the U.S. and figured he'd be a truck driver. When the Blue Chip was discovered at the Windy City Gym he became pro and next thing we see is the destruction of Riddick Bowe. Too bad Andrew never had the mental capacity of Tomasz, as far as boxing goes.

    :rofl

    Look what happened to Golota agaisnt Lewis. We all know Golota was better than that. There are stories that he wanted to back out of the fight but why? His team made him fight that night and it was a complete disaster. Lewis fans, of course, will say Lewis was simply better, yet Lewis was the underdog.

    It was too late. Besides, many people don't know but the Grant fight was the last time we saw "prime" Andrew. After that he was in a bad car wreck injuring his left shoulder and his jab was never the same.

    Glass jaw? His neck was massive! He took Bowes best. Watch the punches he took from McBride. You'll never see Golota out for the count, never.

    He did take some big punches in the Bowe fight without much trouble but getting hammered in the 1st by Lewis and B-level Lamon Brewster as well as well as getting knocked down and then quitting against Grant doesn't really help his cause.

    The Brewster fight was Golotas nerves letting them get the best of him again. Everything leading up to the opening bell was a bad thing. The crowed, the noise, the pressure, all on him, and all eyes on him too. He beat Byrd before, and beat Ruiz too, but got robbed both times and SHOULD have easily outworked Brewster, but he tried to bang with him from the opening bell because he let the atmosphere there get the better of him, big mistake.

    Well anyways.. Brewster wasnt a great fighter, but he was a huge and powerful puncher, and he connected on Golota. He was hammered by Lewis, but Lewis was no feather fisted fairy, either. He took Tysons sunday punch and got up from it like nothing happened. His chin was more then satisfactory I think.

    Donovan Ruddock went to hell and back twice with Mike.

    Of course the Haye wankfest probably doesnt bother you.

    At least with Adamek there is something to wank about.

    Lewis went down in history as the far superior fighter, deal with it Loutfatski. GolaTTa can't even stand in Lewis shadow, Lewis showed he does not belong in the same ring as Lennox, period.

    Adamek has definently has a chance.

    And even if he loses, surely it will be a decent fight. Most members on this forum don't give him high chances of beating the Klitschkos... even high chances of beating Haye. People like him because he is what a boxer should be. He is open to challenges, fights frequently, comes out and fights, nothing more. Why is that a bad thing? Most arent nut hugging him and calling him an ATG... as a matter of fact most are criticizing him that he won't make it. Fact is he is a fighter that it is worth being excited about. Of course your entitled to dislike him tho.
