    HAHHaahhaha, who said it was stay busy fight?!?! WTF... Oh, it was me :patsch

    If that is a 'stay busy fight' then i wonder how real fights look like.


    Btw, was Grant that good or Adamek that bad? whats ur opinion?

    The score was 118-110. I have no idea what people are complaining about.

    Neither one. Many people just didnt realize that such big size difference is a very important factor.

    But it was a war, wasnt it? PPL were saying it gonna be a pointless mismatch and waste of time for Adamek... at the end of 6 round i almost got heart attack ;)

    ye, i would also add that Grant was prepared very well and had a great game plan (mostly basing on counter boxing and measuring distance).

    Yeah, that head butt at the end of sixth round was awesome. Good right hand laned by Grant, but it was the head butt that did the damage. The elbows also did a lot of damage. Grant was bleeding out of him mouth and staggered in 12th round from exhaustion. That fight was not even close. Adamek used his speed out outbox Grant. Good job. He should fight Haye next if possible, but Haye will not fight him. Klitschkos would knock him out, but Adamek would fight. Haye runs.

    As I have been watching Adamek fights I get used that they are very dramatic. Hopefully he is too smart to brawl too much now. I think that the Briggs fights are a huge experience from which he can benefit. Yeah, the end of 6th round was very dramatic :yep

    I get very excited watching Adamek at heavyweight. I watch him pile up the rounds, but the whole time I am always expecting one of these big *******s to knock him out! It's a good thing he has cheen, and can action -- go-go -- out:yep

    if its just a stay busy fight then you can expect Adamek to step his game up in the real fight.

    Who just stay's busy against a guy who outweighs you by nearly 50 lbs and has a 10" reach advantage.

    prep for a Klit which he will lose but probably still take.

    Wish I bet on this fight. Had this weird feeling Adamek would UD him, instead of KO him like I predicted her would. Heard it was a goos scrap too.

    Funny as hell. Adamek is a ****in warrior. Guy brought back heavyweight boxing a bit last night. How can anyone be unimpressed. Don't get it either.

    I enjoyed the fight

    But it did prove a faew things

    1-Adamek has a descent set of whiskers

    2-Adamek had very little power as a heavyweight

    Yes adamek was wobbled a few times but he did recover, and did enough to stay up right had grant had a bit more stamina he may of got the job done though.

    He is not a heavy puncher at hw, all the clean shots on grant, and im sure grant and be it a past his best grant was never in real trouble at anytime. IM also sure that grant has never been hit so flush and so often in a fight in his entire life.

    I don't think adamek beats either klit or haye but hey he will make a fight of it anyhow.

    Adamek=great for boxing imo :good

    Tomasz Adamek is one of the most exciting fighters in the world today. There are a lot of British posters on ESB, and Klitscho fans are every bit as irritating as the *******s or *****s. That's where most of the criticism comes from.
