ademek can weigh 250 on fight night...and he will still be a small guy...you cant fight at 175 for most of your life, stop off at 190 for a few years and now take on 250 pound 6 foot 8 inch guys that really havent lost a round in 5 or 6 years... and haye is also bigger than ademek, forget what he weighed in at last week...haye would drain his body to make cruiser...ademek moved up in weight to make cruiser...how does that make him a bigger guy?
Speaking of overtraining, it seems to me like Adamek has been training for quite a while already, and the fight is still two months away. What is up with that? He's gonna peak about a month before the fight.
i quit watching 2 mins in...thats brutal (not in a good way) mcbride is horrible and slow motion..ademek look like he couldnt crack an egg and seemed to be able to his tomasz a little too much.... hope ademek gets a nice fat pay check....he deserves it and will def earn it
Do I like Adamek's chances? No, not really, but he's slowly improving in my mind. I think he can really pull the upset off. Maybe I'm just delusional but I can't wait for this fight! Tomasz is the type of boxer everybody should be rooting for to pull this off.
At heavyweight Adamek has been weighing in between 214 and 218 so he will be heavier than Haye. And Adamek's height is listed wrong on boxing sites but he might be a tiny bit shorter then Haye I dont think so. Also Adamek fought most of his fights at light heavyweight but it was so unhealthy for him he literally had to starve himself 15 pounds before every fight. So he really is a natural cruiserweight but after getting the belt in Cruiserweight and fighting everyone meaningful he saw an opportunity at heavyweight and here he is. More importantly Adamek is here to win and he definitely has a lot more skill than Haye.
And after watching how bad Vitali looked against Byrd, I'd say Adamek has MORE skills than VK & could show them in this fight. But that size diff may be very hard to over come. Maybe not for "the smartest" fighter in the ring. :smoke
I was there for the Johnathon Banks knockout, that was brutal!! Vitali will not have an easy fight thats for sure...
Adamek is a natural CW. He was just fighting in the LHW for too long. And right now with his body build he has already outgrown the CW division.
