    still not on BoxRec do you have a source?

    i don't have a pick as the last fight i saw Adamek in was Dawson and Cunningham was againt Wlodarczyk

    both looked flat

    Here's what I heard:

    There won't be a purse bid for Adamek-Steve Cunningham fight as both fighters' camps reached an agreement before the official IBF date- September 22. Possible venues are: New York and Atlantic City.

    Adamek is in top form.

    Steve will be rusty.

    Adamek has a little more in the arsenal.

    Steve Cunningham is staying sharp, I train at the same gym as him, he's there all the time.

    I imagine he would be in the gym but a stay busy fight would have served him well over this last nearly year of inactivity.King did the exact same **** with Adamek before the second Briggs fight.

    Let's hope Adamek isn't expecting Cunningham to be rusty, as that clearly won't be the case.

    Has Steve been there throughout the entire summer?

    Yes, but Adamek also had some legal battles and moves to/from America which kept him out of the gym and caused his weight problems later on.

    Cunningham is physically superior and is the better boxer. Adamek is tough but he really doesn't have the quickness or ability to win this fight, at least not in comparison to Cunningham.

    Steve is underrated on this board. I can't see Adamek doing anything other than losing a fairly wide decision here.

    People are underestimating Adamek I think. There is no way this guy gets knocked out, have you seen the Briggs battles?? This guy has the heart of a lion

    this fight is going to Adamek for sure! same thing as with Bell, all press said is that it will take one strong punch to take Tomasz down, well, Bell had ALL seven round to do it, and all of a sudden no comments after the fight. where are all the Bell supporters? you all underestimating Adamek, same as before the fight with Bell.
