    Steward talking about Adamek, possible match-up against Wladimir in March, and others.

    The only way to win from Klit is by KO, Adamek seems to struggle to carry his power to HW, IMO Adamek stands no chance...

    He is one of the better fighters in the crop of HW that is not Klit

    Bird really did do good after Wlad but that doesn't change a fact that he still had no business in the rings with Klits. No time to adjust changed that and that seems to be Adamek's case. It seems that's what Steward really thinks but won't tell it cause he wants to hype the fight.

    **** I wish I was wrong though.. I wish that Adamek's jumping in and out would somehow turned out to be enough to outpoint Wlad. Or that Wlad's Jaw would somehow fail again.

    As much as I love Adamek you can't ignore the size disadvantage he gives away to the Klitschkos. Still, much props for him wanting to fight Wlad as some other boxers in the same division lack the testicular fortitude to fight a Klitschko.

    Adamek is not a puncher at heavyweight and couldn't even dominate a shot to pieces Michael Grant. He's a very good fighter, but not special enough to make things remotely competitive with a Klitschko.

    Kltchkos, Helenius and Fury easily outbox adamek. Adamek was good in lighter series, but not in heavyweights

    Keep dreaming :smoke

    Boxing isnt about dominating the opponents, but about winning the fights. Thats what Adamek has been doing for many years.

    Thats a good point. However if finally Adamek loses, at the end of the day, you will be able to say that he gave much better performance than majority of Klitschko victims.

    Definitely agree w/ K bros and possibly Helenius. Disagree w/ Fury. I am not at all impressed with Fury.

    Adamek would box circles around Fury. Wlad would put Adamek to sleep, perhaps permanently.
