    I was between TKO in the 2nd and 3rd. Maybe 3rd is more realistic, I dont know.

    Haye would counter adamek all night long..his speed + power is a bad combination for adamek and his leaky defence.

    I'm not so sure about this.

    I think they match-up very well. For me, the big difference is that I believe Adamek can take a better shot and has superior stamina. Haye does have an advantage in power, and perhaps, a slight advantage in hand speed.

    Regardless of who would win, this fight would provide fireworks and entertainment, no doubt!

    Dude watch the mormeck fight, he was patient picked his punches and BANG mormeck was gone. Instant knockout power..thus after getting up from a flash knockdown.
    Fragomeni fight also showed his ring skills.. you dont pick up a silver medal in the world amateurs for being a one trick pony!
    This fight wont happen though. Haye has bigger fish to fry naemly the klits.Vitali in the summer seems to be the set fight!

    I guess you just don't want to be taken seriously then.

    That's fine.

    What are you basing this statement on????

    Haye fought for the IBO cruiserweight title in his 11th pro fight, he had never even been in a 12round contest prior to this mainly 6's and 8's , this was against Carl Thompson who was 32-6 at the time vastly more experienced and also extremely tough.

    His 21st pro fight was against another more experienced and top cruiser Jean Marc Mormeck in Paris his own back yard where he got up from the canvas to win by KO and unify the division!

    Please explain a lack of balls in any of this???????????:patsch

    Going back to the original post yes I agree HAYE v ADAMEK is a mouth watering prospect and the best matchup in boxing today bar none,also Arreola v Haye could be very entertaining:good

    Yeah, because Valuev and Golota are similar...:lol:

    Golota has a glass chin. Hes been knocked out in the first round and slaughtered in the past. It's over a decade since he was something special. Valuev has never been down and was world champion.

    Haye would have KOed Golota in 1 or 2. Valuev would have beaten Adamek.

    Adamek is a fun fighter but thoroughly overrated by fans. Hes tough, entertaing but he lacks skills. Hes lucky the Hopkins didn't cone to fruition as he would have been taken to school. Hes not a good boxer, takes far too many clean shots and doesnt hit too hard.

    In other words, tailor made for Haye.

    Haye KO 4.

    You're right.

    The fight won't happen because Haye is going to cash out in a losing effort against one of the Klits.

    Unfortunate, because a Haye-Adamek fight has the best potential in the entire heavyweight landscape.

    Lacks skills?

    :roll:

    I'm as big of a Hopkins fan as you will ever come across. Hopkins, when he was contemplating whether to fight Dawson or Adamek, chose DAWSON! Ultimately, he has since settled for Jones, but that he preferred a fight with Dawson over Adamek speaks volumes.

    A win over an undefeated light heavy would have done MUCH less for his legacy than beating THE MAN at cruiserweight.

    Why? Because you say so?

    I think Adamek would have beaten Valuev and I think he would have looked a hell of a lot more impressive than Haye in doing so.

    Mate get real for a second...enough of this fan boy bull ****!

    Haye is going after the belt holders not just for money but to become undisputed champ at 2 weights.
    Adamek like at cruiserweight is knowere in the picture..

    Thanks for the kind words on Paulie, but I am not speaking nonsense. I could be wrong in my assessment. I've been wrong in the past, and surely, I will be wrong again.

    But Haye IS going to cash out in a losing effort against one of the Klitschkos, and I maintain that he will not be competitive against either.

    How is this nonsense? This is my honest opinion on the situation. Haye (and Adamek, for that matter) are both out of their leagues when it comes to Wlad and Vitali.

    I'm no Klitschko fan, I'm simply calling it like I see it.
