    :patsch
    What more can you ask for, fightfan?

    Any top 10 p4p list without him on it is a damn joke!

    theres a lot of comp for p4p. interesting question, though.
     

  3. P4P has been a joke .. it had JC on it (that is completely ridiculous) and while BHOP is an ATG he isn't p4p at 43/44 either. The real outcry should have been for Dawson specifically.

    His level of comp isnt that high, and he got soundly outclassed by Dawson who himself isnt in the top 10...

    P4P lists are just hype builders, thats pretty much it.

    Again, thank you, Adamek was far from 100% that night.

    Adamek is THE throwback fighter in the sport today. Tell me one Champion in the last 50 ****in yrs that has fought 2 fights within 78 days???

    Whatever dude...fighters always make excuses for loses...truth is he was outclassed, not outpointed or stopped early there is a difference...Adamek was never in the fight with him..Ill gave you an example....Allan Green had an illness that could have killed him during the fight with Miranda, he lost but he wasnt outclassed, in fact early in the fight it appeared that Green would stop Miranda...That is an example of someone not being 100% yet being as good or better then the guy that he lost to...Adamek was OUTCLASSED, he only won ONE freaking round, two at the most.

    Do you count Dawson as top 10?

    I don't care if he's #10. His name belong there, when you consider some of the questionable names that are there.

    Can someone please explain to me why some fighters like Adamek and Arthur Abraham have that RARE power.
    It's HEAVY, not necessarily explosive.

    Thier is no ONE list...But of the 10 guys that appear on the list most often you cant put Adamek in there, not to mention that even outside the top 10 there are fighters that would be ahead of him..

    Dude he is a good fighter, but he isnt an elite fighter.:hey

    Its not like he was beatting other elite fighters, he is beatting solid fighters. Thats all and once again in his step up to the elite level he was outclassed 100% or not.

    Jose Luis Castillo fought Julio Diaz in March of 05 and Chico in May of 05.

    But yeah, I agree with you...Adamek is definitely a throwback fighter.

    Like who my overly anxious friend? Darchinyan?

    Maybe youre overestimating him and underestimating the others?
