    Adamek is way bigger than Pavlik and more active. I think that he is going to be way too physical for Hopkins.

    Adamek is 6′ 1½″ / 187cm
    Pavlik is 6′ 2½″ / 189cm

    Both got the same reach.

    Adamek total punches thrown in 12 rounds vs Cunnigham - 480
    Pavlik total punches thrown in 9 rounds vs Rubio - 695

    LMAO! Evander Holyfield is the greatest Cruiser of all time & he would have demolished Adamek!

    That means nothing , when adamek fights human Punching bags like Rubio he can also throw as many punches as he wants but the diffrence is that he finishces them much faster than Pavlik Re- his last fight with Gunn

    check his wars with briggs where he threw around 1k punches each fight

    i think Diamond meant his body frame and weight ,its not only about reach and height , check paul williams he has HW height and reach BUt would he be effective in there? i dont think so ,he would be crusched by a body punch probably ,its about natural weight too

    in my opinion adameks power and workrate will be 2much for grandpa Hopkins so i can also see him being stopped the first and the last time in his great career

    And David Tua and Mike Tyson were both about 5'10 to 5'9. But Hopkins surely isn't bigger than those guys. Height and reach are only part of the story. Bone structure and natural body mass are another part of it. Otherwise someone like Diego Corrales could have fought at heavyweight.

    Golota a legend?? No he isn't. That guy fought and lost to legends, but he was not a legend.

    Adamek said Golota is a legend, not me. And he is in Poland.

    people saying that adamek will beat b hop becouse he throws well in combination need to think back to calzaghe and how b hop turned him into a single shot fighter. b hops greatest ability is how he can take away an opponents greatest strengths and exploit his greatest weakneses. by the way i hope this fight is not made and that b hop fights the winner of dawson vs johnson.

    Everyone will use the weight and age-gap as an excuse for Adamek to win. B-Hop, time after time, has proven to us why he is one of the All-time greats. He was counted out with Trinidad, he was counted out with Pavlik... and look what happend. Whenever Hopkins comes in as the under-dog, he wins. Adamek is in for the boxing lesson of his life. :rasta
