Adamek vs Bell

I disagree about Bell's will to win in that fight. Mormeck boxed very well, showed an iron chin, and knew he was ahead, making it tough for Bell to get to him.

A big question mark here is ring rust on the part of Bell. We just haven't seen him in forever. Braithwaite came back after a huge layoff against Macca and looked bad. Bell could do the same. Bell is also prone to being outboxed by angles, see his fight with Dale Brown.

However, I think the key here is not so much Bell as it is Adamek. I'm just not convinced that he's a real Cruiser. To win this, he'll have to straight up move and box, avoiding the exchanges he invariably gets into. I'm not sure he can do that.

Bell does have power and he's shown time and time again that he can finish opponents late in fights when things aren't going his way. He did it earlier in his career against Arthur Williams and Sebastiaan Rothmann to name two, and I think he'll do it again against Adamek.

I look for Bell's strength and power to get to Adamek late.
