Be a great fight. I edge towards Haye with his speed but Adamek always comes to fight & won't wilt easily. Make the fight please.
i'd rather see Haye take on a klitschko.. beating Klitschko would give him one more title and some recognition, getting beat by klitschko would not be as bad as by adamek.. think Haye's only true challenge are the klitschko brothers he would be too much for the Pole
Adamek is able to KO "big mouth" but im affraid it won't happen - simply bcoz brit is runnin away from competetive oponents obviously :|
Haye throws pretty straight quick punches, with some pop. Kind of like Chad Dawson, who completely dominated Adamek. Adamek is tough, so he would be dangerous the whole fight, but unless Hayes makes a mistake, he wins. Keith
He fought the whole first Briggs fight with broken nose. As long as Adamek stays on his feet, he is still fighting. Despite Klitschkos, who Haye is avoiding, Adamek is a nightmare opponent for David Haye. I dont say anything that Haye is easy opponent for Adamek, because he is much more dangerous than Arreola, I still see this fight like 50/50 and favor Adamek. I would say that Eddie Chambers is more difficlut for Adamek than David Haye. Whats is your opinion on that?
Some people always mention this fight :-( Adamek didnt fight at his natural weight class, he had problem with making the weight and was sick. Even tough, Adamek proved in that fight his toughness. He lost 9 rounds in a row and probably won last free and knocked Dawson down. Now he is fighting at HW, weighing 217 pounds. Can you imagine Haye (who isnt naturally much bigger than Adamek) fighting Dawson at 175? It would have been annihilation. Roger Bloodworth (actual Adamek's trainer) when was asked about his favorite Adamek's fight, he said that he like this against Chad DAwson, because in that fight Adamek proved how mentally hard he really is.
Excuse much??? Adamek was the champ, how is that not his natural weight class?? Look I know I m not going to get the most unbiased response from a guy with Adamek in his avatar picking Admaek to win EVERY matchup posted on this forum, but jeez....... Keith
Why? I said that Klitschkos are untouchable at the moment for Adamek, and I can give Chambers the edge in Adamek fight, because Adamek doesnt like to fight slick boxers. When I say Haye/Adamek is 50/50 and I say that I favor Adamek in this one, because I know how tough he is, am I biased? I dont try to make excuses, Adamek clearly lost the fight with Dawson, who was better fighter in that division. The Adamek who fought Briggs would have lost the fight with Dawson too. Adamek was never that good at LHW as he was at CW. Even HW suits him uch more than LHW. Can fighter win a belt in his not natural weight class? Of course, if he is that good, he can.
However you can't use it as an EXCUSE when he loses. You say you don't make excuses but then calim he lost because though he was good enough to be champion he wasn't at a good weight and was sick. Those are excuses. Haye will have similar advantages over Adamek as Dawson does. He is faster and a straighter puncher. That is a very good foil for Adamek. Does Adamek have a chance? Absolutely. But Haye is a stylistic problem for him. Keith
I favor Haye but not by so much as to bet real money on it. I think Haye is without question a better puncher, and far faster. But I don't feel he has the higher ring IQ at all. I feel Adamek is the better boxer.
I said that Dawson was better at LHW, and any version of 175 Adamek would probably lose to Dawson. I also say that Adamek had weight issues, thats why he moved up to CW. If you say that these are excuses, then you probably dont understand English at all. Well I agree that Haye's speed is the problem for Adamek. On the other hand Adamek's toughness would be a problem for Haye too. I still say its a 50/50 fight. Very intriguing match-up as Haye isnt comparable to Dawson in terms of skills, but is fast and powerful. I have no problem when people are typing Haye to win, becasue as I said it would be a close fight. I have only a problem with some stupid ones, who disrespects Adamek. But I dont care, because as Adamek always repeats: not words, but fists in the ring always decide :good
