Yeah, i said it! And now i'll prove it. Adamek has 3 wins over top 10 RING magazine cruisers, and haye only has 2. Goral is 3-0(2ko's) and haye is 2-0(2ko's) over top ten cruisers. But haye's one W was against arguably a weak, and overhyped enzo macablahblahblah and a KO over mormeck in which he was decked. tomasz, has a win over arguably the most skilled cruiser ever, A KO over a dangerous big punching 200 pounder who i doubt haye would have beat in bell, and an undefeated big cruiser in banks. The 200 pound resume's don't compare. And if tomasz is successful against arreola, then he trumps gaye at heavyweight too. p4p goral is a far better fighter than doivit. And, no...........i'm not polish.
Couple of questions about your 'proof': Haye beat Mormeck, Fragomeni and Maccarinelli, Adamek beat Bell, Banks and Cunningham: I make that three Ring top ten fighters each? And who exactly are you claiming as the 'most skilled cruiser ever'?
Yes, you got me. Frag, macaroni, and mormeck are = to bell. USS, and banks. OK ******. Back to east london with you and the rest of the dregs. And USS was the most skilled. name one better, but remember i said skilled. Fragomeni? So, what does that make erdei?
Just so I've got this right, for when I use it to mock you in future, your claim is that Steve Cunningham is more skilled than the cruiserweight versions of James Toney, Evander Holyfield, Carlos De Leon etc. Lineal light heavyweight champion?
Sorry, forgot about JT. He had such a short reign at cruiser. But holy and .....**** deleon. Where do you get your info boxrec.com? Yes moron. Steve cunningham. And WTF? erdie linear champ at 175? You're like a bad fox news jounalist going up against keith olbermann right now you know that don't you?
De Leon would comfortably handle Cunningham. Cunningham does not have the defence or chin to deal with any of the three named (or a number of others if I could be bothered), even though he's a 10lb heavier CW than any. Cunningham doesn't have the achievements to really even make a comparison, his best wins are Huck and Wlodarczyk, and that was 1-1 overall. That's correct. He only went to CW for one fight because there was nothing on offer in his division (though even then he only weighed in a few pounds above the LHW limit).
I think Gurov may have been at the bottom end of the top 10 too, not sure though. Either way the guy who started this thread is clearly a ******, so it doesn't matter.
I dont get why ppl think cunninghum has a weak chin, huck was hitting him nothing happaned same with heavy-handed guys like Wlodarczyk or Braithwaithe , yeah he was decked 3 times by adamek but was hurt only once and not that bad at all. Plus adamek knocked out every1 he has faced in the cruiserweight besides Steve. Sam peter was also 3 times on the ground during one fight does he have a weak chin too? Secondly Cunninghum has also a very good win over guillermo jones on par or even better than wlodarczyk , btw the first fight between them could have gone either way, and that was the worst showing from cunninghum ive ever seen.
I can't believe anyone realistically thinks Cunningham is a better boxer than Holyfield. I don't even think he was a better boxer than Toney and a few different others, but if I list those, I'd be getting into a discussion about it. However, saying Cunninigham is a better boxer than Holyfield is ignorant or incredibly stupid. The gulf between the two is vast. Anyway, Haye was a better fighter there, despite the fact draining made him weak, and is a better fighter now.
You will never know until they fight together. If Adamek is able to cope with Arreola's right hands, then I cant see Adamek being an underdog in the possible fight with Haye. Probably most people would say its 50-50 fight.
