    Crazy....Arreola is fat and out of shape, but nothing Adamek can do will hurt Arreola. Adamek is insane to even mention HW. He is not big enough or string enough. He could surely pluck a washed up small old HW like Monte Barrett and beat him, but that doesnt count. A real HW run is a different story thats out of Adamek's reach IMO.

    I don't think Adamek will have as much success at HW. Adamek will do well against general opposition but I don't see his punch resistance holding up as high and his power may drop too at HW.

    Same here, people act like talking about a peak Tua or Mercer, Arreola is lazy and is going no where fast.

    One good fight for Chambers against an over rated prospect and you're ready to prostitute yourself for him. Who the **** is Brock? Peter has already been exposed as an unmotivated African jelly donut, capable of a hail mary once in a while.

    Cunningham is a highly skilled, consistent boxer fighting in a much deeper division and I will take him over Chambers any day. Cunningham has beaten the best in the division including Marco Huck, Guillermo Jones, Wlodarczyk and took Adamek to his absolute limits in an unbelievable fight. You want to compare that to Brock or Dimitrenko? I won't even delve into the pathetic give away loss against the overhyped Povetkin. Cunni's combinations are way more fluid than Chambers' and he's a tad faster too. Just because Cunni fights in an under exposed, historically stigmatized division doesn't mean he's inferior in any way. Let's face it: the CW divsion has been giving us better , more competatively matched fights, than HW, for at least the past decade. Chambers is really a cheap, inconsistent and undisciplined version of Cunningham and Adamek will be glad to demonstrate that for you.

    Umm no, Chambers is actually more fluid and sharper with his combinations. Cunningham is sometimes sloppy which he showed against Adamek, you need to watch both fighters again. And lol I don't know where your sick mind connects sexuality to boxing, you're so gay. As for Cunningham I'll give him his props, maybe I'm not giving him the respect he deserves, and even though he loss to Adamek, it was a close tough fight, very good boxer.

    That is crap ! If Cunningham was that much better than Chambers he would also fight at heavy, cause there is much more money to be made.

    He doesn't realize that Cunningham doesn't have the punching power or defense to compete at heavyweight, but fails to recognize Chambers as a top 5 heavyweight who's 34-1, yet calls him a cheap imitation of Cunningham, ridiculous.

    The last CW champion who beat Barrett was offered titleshot at Wlad almost instantly, so I think it counts after all ;)

    More seriously, I think Adamek can make some good fights at HW, but he is too small and hitable to be serious force there. He would need a lot of luck to win a title - WBO, WBC and IBF are out of his reach as long as they are kept by Klitschko's, and I doubt he can win any part of WBA either (Chagaev has too much skill, adn Valuev's "champion bonus" on scorecards is insane). I wouldn't bet on him also against fighters like Thompson, Povetkin or even Peter.

    And I doubt fighting guys like Arreola or Barrett would give him as much money as defending CW title (perhaps even unifying the division somewhat). That is why I think Adamek is just keeping his mouth busy when he talks about jumping to HW.

    Adamek should make the most of his crusierweight stop off while he can, make some money.. fight some big names and then when he has done all he can maybe give heavyweight a crack, he can punch, he can take a punch and he can box.. but he should stay the hell away from a Klitschko that would just be suicidal. I'd put him in there with a 30/70 chance of upsetting Haye, if Adamek could drag it out he might be able to grind Haye down if his chin can stand the early onslaught, when you consider that Mormeck had his moments against Haye and is smaller than Adamek.

    His body frame doesn't look like been made for HW, he fit perfect in CW.

    Adamek would fight above his weight at heavy weight.He would be out of his shoes against some of today's behemoths.

    For example Adamek is head and shoulders above Valuev in terms of skills and talent,but as soon as Valuev leans on him and put his weight on Adamek ' s shoulders down he goes the Pole.Adamek is a dwarf at heavy weight.Even at cruiser weight he isnt really one of the truly big fellows.
    Nah! A knight should stick to his sword!
