The Mighty Adamek Express!

220 I think. He looked fast and worked on his power a lot. I'd like to see the result of it on Saturday :bbb.

 

There was some debate about Adameks size on another thread.
I am 5.10ish and this is a screenshot from just prior to the Cunnigham Cruiserweight fight when I met Tomasz.

Sorry for the quality, it's just the way VLC captured it.

 

Where is that picture taken Hyper? Krakow by any chance?

Yea Adamek is listed wrong for his height. He is probably at least 6'3'' I would say. A bit shorter then Golota who is 6'4''.

 

I met Adamek at a Nets game and I'm 6'3. Id say hes a legit 6'2

 

Turbina, yes it was in Krakow.
My family had gone into the Macdonalds and I saw him walk past.
I shouted at my dad to follow me and start filming and I abandoned the pushchair (it was empty) in the middle of the street!!
Adamek and his entourage (Ziggy was there also) were very courteous and it was and honour to meet him.
Tomasz was very humble and when I told him he would beat Cunnigham, he simply said "Yes, I think so".
For me, Adamek is under appreciated in the sport. Such a perfect all round sportsman.

 

Champ WLADIMIR KLITSCHKO (Sup Champ) UKR

1 Tomasz Adamek (NABO) ** POL
2 David Tua (Asia-Pacific) (Oriental) NZ/SAM
3 Alexander Povetkin RUS
4 Denis Boytsov RUS
5 Ruslan Chagaev UZB
6 Samuel Peter NIG
7 Nicolay Valuev RUS
8 Odlainier Solis CUB
9 Alexander Dimitrenko UKR
10 Chris Arreola USA

Indeed top 1 WBO.

U can expect Wlad vs Adamek soon.

 

If Adamek defeats Grant after a few months meaby he will get NO1 in any other ranking too :deal so he could fight other champ. For me Wlad is the worst option for Tomasz.

 

Thanks for posting. :good

WAR GORAL!

 

So, let's say... Adamek wins on Saturday, he's already on 1st place of WBO ranking. Currently he's on 3rd place in the IBF ranking, 1st place is empty, 2nd is Samuel Peter who's fighting Wlad in 11th of September. If he wins, is there any possibility he becomes mandatory IBF and WBO contender ? I mean, I'm asking, because I don't know if you can be a mandatory challenger without fighitng in eliminator. If not, he may fight Boytsov in the IBF eliminator. Then Wlad has no option to avoid him in choosing his oppenent, but I think Wladimir will face Adamek with pleasure and vice versa. But come on HBO and set Haye-Adamek WBA championship title first, please. cheers.

 

haha, cool story, and neat coincidence. Adamek is class.

Typical Adamek reply to a question as well, good stuff man. I knew that place looked familiar.

 

I would agree with that statement.

 

So when is the Weigh in? Wanna finally see how much has tomasz bulked up

 

one thing about boytswov - i don't think he's fought since the start of last year, due to injury. i can't see boytsov being pushed into an important eliminator fight, not soon.

 

At least there is one decent contender man enough to face Wlad

Looking shamefully to Haye and Povetkin...

 

With all the strength training he has been doing he weighed in at the same weight he has against Arreola. I think he is becoming more solid at this weight now, hope he increased his power a bit.

That's true. Second time for Povetkin too. But Povetkin imo has the right to defer this fight if he feels he isnt ready. Can't say the same for Haye.
