    Good fight, and very difficult to predict.. but I'd favor Kovalev by UD.

    You think so? You might be underestimating Adamek.

    Adamek was a big puncher at LH and was still knocking people out at cruiser like Banks & Bell.

    I do think so. I remember him quite well and he didn't have any real impressive wins at LHW. He gets more credit than he deserves from boxing fans because he moved up to heavy weight and had some success. His biggest fight was Chad Dawson and he lost in a bout that wasn't too competitive really.

    Kov (despite the judges) won his biggest bout at LHW against Andre Ward, and i think Andre was a better LHW than Dawson ever was.

    The Briggs fights were as impressive as it gets at LHW. Adamek showed what he was made of in The Dawson fight. He was sick as a dog puking before the fight. During the fight when Dawson (who was at the top of his game) was controlling with his speed advantage Adamek never quit and finally caught Dawson in the last round and put him on his fanny. Good thing for Dawson there were no more rounds. Andre vs Dawson you could be right but I dont know. Dawson was pretty good before he started sucking.
    The Adamek wins vs Oniell Bell, Banks and USS Cunningham at Cruiser probably beat an Andre Ward victory by Kovalev at LHW. I know Kovalev lost but we all know he won.

    Kovalev iz one of the best light-heavyweights I've personally ever seen.
    He outboxed a MasterBoxer in his last fight and I did not see that coming.
    Everytime I think know what Kovalev iz fully capable of , he proves me wrong and shows me something else. The Krusher iz a G .
    Naww , Adamek has too much heart for his own good and I see him getting punished by The Krusher.

    Ya well said. Kovalev got game for sure. Adamek carried his weight best at Cruiser. Maybe LHW is where Kovalev gets him. Im pretty sure Admek gets Kovalev at Cruiser and Kovalev would never go to Heavy.

    At lightheavyweight, I have to pick Kovalev. I am a big fan of adamek and he achieved a lot over a few weight classes. But in his prime he got dropped twice by Paul Briggs who had big power and decent skill. and he won those 2 fights by razor thin decisions. A prime Briggs was good but nowhere near the class of Kovalev.
    It will be a great fight and adamek toughness will carry him to the 12 rounds.
