    I dont ****ing know, what I do know is that Adamek has got himself a nice string of wins at Heavyweight including a win over Arreola and Grant of which most if not all myself included thought Grant was all done, and probably still feel that way but the fight was pretty damn entertaining actually..

    My question is, are the heavyweights that Adamek beat, worth him getting a title shot against Vitali Klitschko? lets not just consider the Heavyweight bouts..... Adamek did get his ass handed to him by Chad Dawson who did get his ass handed to him by Pascal...

    I just dont get how a guy can lose to a fighter like Dawson, only to turn around and move up in weight fight some shot heavyweights and get him a shot at the man..... What the **** kind of sense does this make?

    In all honesty you're probably right but Adamek has fought better HW competition than Haye so far for whatever that's worth.

    The real issue is that with a "Two Headed Champion" there isn't too many credible opponents left in the division.

    Consider this: When you have 2 very dominant fighters ruling any division you're bound to have less opponents to choose from. Arreola could always work his way into a fight against Wlad & Chambers or Thompson could work himself into a fight against Vitali but they'd yet to do so.

    We should consider ourselves lucky that Vitali's fighting Adamek since both are pretty exciting fighters. Should be a good scrap :good

    Yes he deserves it, Him, Povetkin and Haye both deserve a shot at the champ or the number 2 man. All the rest ranked in the top 15 have already lost to the best. Helenuis is still at least a year away from a title shot.

    I'll be watching Helenius, he's a future star if his management brings him along properly.

    Adamek is a solid contender and it is a voluntary defense for Vitali. I don't see any problems here.

    His wins over Estrada and Arreola make him more deserving than most.

    Yep. Adamek can fight & he doesn't have the greatest defense so we should see some fireworks in this one...................

    Dude, stop already. You're in every Klitschko thread proclaiming how they aren't worthy Champs, but yet none of their comp. is worthy to challenge them either. :rofl

    The record's been broken already, if you don't like the current division, don't watch it. There are plenty of lower weights for you to spend your time on.

    :deal:lol: weird guy JLH is indeed.

    for TS... I dont think Adamek is any lesser challenger than David Haye is against the hw champion.

    At least he didn't lose to journeyman Carl Thompson. It doesn't matter anyway, he beat the CW version of Dawson and some quality names at HW, he's a boderline P4P-er and deserves his shot.

    I am sorry but I think wins over Ruiz, Valuev and Barrett are better than wins over Arreola and Estrada, Okay dont suggest to yourselves that I consider Barrett a better win that Arreola, I just consider Barrett a better win than a win over Estrada...

    That was his 11th pro fight.. Thompson had nearly 40 pro fights, Adamek lost to Dawson with about 30 pro fights under his belt...
    I mean I can make an excuse easily for Haye here... as a pro he was still green..
