    Interview on Fightnews with Roger Bloodworth saying he wants Adamek to weigh 225lbs for his next fight March 24th, from his previous weight of 217lbs. Adamek said the other day that he's been eating alot of steak & has added 10lbs. Hitting the mitts, Bloodworth said that Adamek is much faster even with the added weight.

    I'm just wondering how that can be & if Adamek may experience a stamina problem being heavier???

    I think he realizes he is fragile as hell at HW, and he wants to build some mass.


    I doubt that his power will get any better.

    I hoped he would drop some pounds and move back to CW.

    He would be able to rule that class, and there would be a couple of nice matchups for him there.

    Adamek can put as much muscle mass as he wants, it wont change his bone structure, He'll alsways be a blown up LHW

    And lack of skill. He isn't half the boxer Holyfield was.

    Yeah thats right. His problem is his style.

    What Adamek needs is a new trainer. Perhaps somone like Teddy Atlas or Kevin Rooney

    With Teddy Atlas training him, I'm afraid he would be ruined in a way he won't even be able to recapture a CW strap. :!:

    How can you possibly compare Adamka to Holyfield?

    Far too big for CW, he can't make the weight any more.

    Adamek's main problem is he has ZERO defense. Putting on weight won't solve that problem.

    Holyfield during his first few years at HW was considered as "a crap spoiler" so you never know what could happen with Adamek.
