Haye was trying not to kncok him out as he wanted to show he could go 12 rounds. http://www.britishboxing.net/news_1572-David-Haye-s-Power-is-Lost-in-Transition.html
Nobody has luck knocking Abdoul out, just check his record for yourself. Abdoubl went the distance with the whos whos of the LH and CW division. He was the prefect gatekeeper. Good skills and chin to let the good ones surpass to a higher ranking and let the weaker ones downhill. Nobody TKOs Abdoul. Only one man has done so, and thats the guy in my avatar.
Haye only threw about 12 punch's a round it was like a sparring match, it was shortly after he gassed agiainst thompson so he wanted to show he could last the distance, i would say to you watch the fight but it's quite a boring one.
Its either early KO for Haye or mid to late KO for Adamek. I don't see Haye to have chin and stamina to go full 12 rounds in a case he will not be able to KO Adamek within first 5 rounds. Haye have exceptional skills and power to break Adameks chin early however Adamek is well experienced and can (if he wants) keep distance and good footwork to avoid Haye's punches for a few rounds. If Adamek wants to win he must fight early same as against Bell or Banks. If Haye wants to win he must close distance early and force Adamek to brawling. Is like 50-50
