Enzo said today in Swansea Evening Post he is a bit pissed off with all the abuse / stick he is getting off "certain" internet forums and he said he wants his respect and said he still wants and plans to unify the Crusierweight division and wants Adamek this year.
What kind of stick? I think Enzo needs to accept he has to start fighting quality opponents on a regular basis. Prior to facing Haye, which I commend him for, he had only one credible opponent at world level as far as I'm concerned. That was Wayne Braithwaite.
Enzo deserves alot of respect for his achievements so far in his career. Sure he could have done without the Gunn fight and the Haye loss was not great but he is a good top 20 fighter who in this division could perform and beat most of the rest of the competition. All he needs is the right fights and not awful mismatches and long periods out of the ring. When you look at the other top cruiserweights there a only an handful who anyone can really rate. Guys like Frag, Kruj, Arslan, Cunningham, Flores, Banks, Huck ect are decent fighters but non are really world class plus the supposed elite in Alexeev and Adamek are not unbeatable. Alexeev lost recently, he was not exposed but he showed his limitations and Adamek is not mighty scarey. I see no reason why Enzo can not beat most of these guys...if he is given the chance to fight them.
He said that usually getting abuse dont bother him but there are "certain" forums that seem to be pissing him off a bit with all the slagging off he is getting and he wants to get some respect. And stated despite the David Haye defeat he still wants to unify the Crusierweight Division and wouldnt mind fighting Steve Cunnigham either.
I was one of those criticising padded-record Enzo and looks like i've been proven right....last night proves that to an extent at least. I don't hate Macca but never bought into the bull****. Just another WBO chancer.
He fought a silly fight and punched himself out...could've and should've won the fight although he was to some extent exposed...Enzo is borderline world class imo...not quite there though...
