    I'm more than positive he doesn't, the only way to beat a guy with that kind of size advantage is fight in a horrid manor and scrap the victory.

    Adamek actually managing to unify.....PLEASE:rofl

    O'neil Bell also lost the rematch with Mormeck (don't know much about these fights)

    As said above I don't know much about Mormecks two fights with Bell but when Mormeck beats Bell in the fight before he loses to Haye, and Adamek beats Bell coming off a loss then after he goes on to lose to Richard Hall next, gotta admit the Mormeck victory appears better.

    I'd also take a victory over Cunningham against a victory over Enzo, but respect to Enzo was 28-1 at the time and had won 25 on the bounce.

    I had Chambers beating Adamek, plus I think that would have been more impressive at CW, purely on size I put the Valuev win over Arreola but Adamek does deserve props for beating Arreola, the title imo (this is just my opinion some won't agree) puts Haye Hw above Adamek HW.

    But he IS competing at heavyweight. :patsch

    As for the thread starters, yes, Adamek was doing better at 210-15. All that bulk is slowing him down and killing his stamina.

    Remind us how Enzo Mac came across his WBO belt?

    Haye fought and looked like **** against Valuev yet Donald,Ruiz,Holyfield and Chagaev ALL looked better!

    After you are done answering the above question, remind us how Valuev got his WBA belt back after losing to Chagaev?

    Thank you!:hi:

    Tell me more about how Haye got a gift against Sugar Valuev who didn't connect a single power punch in 12 rounds.

    What TV station was that? German TV had Haye winning comfortably. The commentator, in fact, was outraged at the draw scorecard (how can you score this fight a draw?).

    I'm a fan but I can admit that he like all fighters has flaws.
    But the man himself is a good fighter. Much respect for him.

    Adamek gets judged on what he has done.

    Haye fans want to judge him on what they think he could'a would'a should'a done.

    Haye was supposed to be a HW saviour while Adamek(IMO) was not supposed to make it far at HW.

    The only cancer on these boards are Gayelords.

    He KO'd 2 guys at heavyweight though. He certainly isn't a hard hitter but when he was lighter,he stopped Maddalone in 5 rounds. Even Denis Boytsov couldn't stop Maddalone and Fury did it in the same time as Adamek.
    And Adamek stopped Golota in 5 or 6. I think if he is lighter,he can use those accurate combos and score more knockdowns and maybe even a few stoppages. He did seem to shake Iron Chinned Arreola with a straight right hand and he rocked Nagy Aguiliera with a left hook. The Key for Adamek is to not be 225. 215 and he retains some speed.

    I think ESB would be better if people would except that their favorite fighter has flaws. Haye talked a big game and didn't deliver.

    Adamek didnt talk at all and overachieved. Haye deserves respect too though. He's not a bad fighter after all. But I admit I get pissed at some of the things Haye does.

    Responding to your thread title...WRONG!!! Adamek was perfect at Cruiserweight. Go watch the fight with USS Cunningham. Adamek was the perfect weight & dropped Steve 3 times in that fight.He's not bad at HW, but 218lbs is where he should be. I think 225lbs is way too much for his frame.

    He won the full title in an unfortunate way because the champion at the time had alot of injuries which postponed a fight which should have been made, he did however win the interim title against Dominguez by TKO9.

    The way Enzo won his title is unimportant, the fact that Haye held three crusierweight titles and Adamek held one = Haye unified, Adamek didn't, twist that however you want.

    Haye didn't look good against Valuev, he did however officially beat him.

    Bull**** politics, Haye still won a title, Adamek didn't.
