    Who's the greatest challenge for him at Cruiserwt.???

    :lol:

    Adamek said he'd love a rematch with Dawson, if Chad would put on a few pounds.

    That will never happen. Dawsons chin can barely handle Lt. HW.;-)

    He has to get past Banks first. I am really worried about the physical condition of Adamek for this fight. It has been less than 3 months since that beating he suffered at the hands of Cunningham.

    I hope that is enough time for Adamek. I doubt that it is.

    I am predicting an easy UD for Banks...in fact, I think that the banks fight is going to look a lot like Kessler/Andrade.

    I hope I am wrong, but don't think I will be.

    And Adamek had a grand time getting outboxed by Dawson. Such is life.

    Adamek vs BJ Flores is probably the ONLY fight left at CW. The only other challenge would be Enzo and I don't see THAT fight happening for at least two years.

    Ross, Flores, Maccarinelli, Hide (judging from his next fight it looks like he will be fighting at cruiserweight again), Godfrey, or Cunningham II all sound good to me.

    To me though guys like Ross, Herbie Hide and Godfrey are all steps BACKWARDS for Adamek. Then again I don't expect Banks to give him much trouble either.

    No from Cunningham. Banks is already one step backwards.

    He's the #1 CW in the world IMO...so he should fight some contender from 2-5. I don't count those guys as being in that distinction.

    Alright so you don't think Ross, Hide, or Godfrey are up to the plate. What if Flores and Maccarinelli are not available for whatever reasons. Do you suggest he goes "backwards" and fights a fighter that has some name recognition such as Ross or Hide? Or should he just stay inactive? I'd rather a fighter fight often and go "backwards" sometimes, then for him to wait around for the big fights and only fight once or twice a year.

    Yeah, Dan Rafael said in his chat earlier today, if Adamek wins tonight, Hopkins wants to fight him.
