    Bellew isn't fit to lace Adamek's spit bucket or carry his boots. And prime Adamek had one hell of a cheen on him. That guy was tough as old boots. Bellew nearly got KO'd by a shot to smithereens Valery Brudov.

    Look at how Adamek eats this flush right hand bomb from boiled down HW Jonathan Banks. That was a KO shot but Adamek ate it up like it was nothing and then proceeded to knock Banks senseless seconds later. Crazy.

    Valuev one of the worst HW champs in history who STOLE the belt from a 98 y/o Holyfield in one of the worst robberies I've ever seen.

    Ruiz, Fraudley and Chisora who had already lost to Fury, Klitschko and (arguably)Helenius.

    Very poor HW career.

    Haven't seen that fight Ruiz vs. Golota, but wasn't Golota the real winner in the eyes of most people?

    Golota was badly robbed vs Ruiz, also robbed against Byrd.

    Haye probably won't get Bellew out too fast. He will be about 230lbs slower than his old self and gassing after 4. Bellew may just connect that left hook. I expect a brawl. Abit like chisora vs haye. Bellew actually being a better crisper punch than delboy, but far less tough.

    How can anyone say he took klitchkos best shot with a straight face. He threw about 15 punches against the 7foot statue valuev. Less than 40year old bad hearted Holyfield loool.

    Guys who rate his win over a arthritic valuev, need to know that valuev would be outboxed by many fighters weighing 190 fight night.

    Not to mention he was already beaten by 5'11 225 lbs Chagaev far more convincingly.

    My money is on Bellew at +550 hedged with Haye winning in round 1-3. If Haye gets Bellew out early I make a few bucks, if Bellew somehow pulls off the upset, I'll make five hundred bucks.

    Prime Adamek would be a match for Haye. Haye did bail out of cw to avoid him and Cunningham, just like Bellew bailed out to avoid big sharks like Usyk and Gassiev.

    Adamek was a great fighter.
    Bellew and Haye are not.

    This post isn't that off, but you rated Haye and backed him to beat Klitschko. You only dropped him because he failed to get the job done. Like Pulev, Povetkiv etc. Give it a rest.

    Valuev was a giant of a man that despite all his flaws, was pretty tough to beat. I can't comment on the holyfield fight since I couldn't make myself watch it, and I didn't think Haye deserved to win as wide as he did, but he did win.

    And I think you're missing my point. I said his HW career was good for a part time boxer , which is what he ultimately is. Haye is only coming back because he made poor financial decisions, not for the love of the sport. And as a part time boxer, Haye still managed to give Wlad fits and make him fight arguably his safest fight to date.

    Besides, Bellew is a cruiser. Can you name more than one cruiser that you'd favour against Haye? All I got is Holyfield.
