    Well Demarco says he wanted to go on as a Mexican fighter...he didn't quit but he did give the impression to trainer he was done.

    Summary of the Adamek fight:

    Adamek mostly boxed and moved, sometimes traded and then got out again. He did just enough to outwork Estrada over most of the rounds. Solid but not spectacular really. He seemed a little tired towards the end, don't think his body is adjusted to this weight yet.

    Major concerns - Estrada could back up Adamek for long periods. Big concerns over Adamek's heavyweight strength and definitely power. The suspicion was there when he hit Golota with everything but the kitchen sink, but tonight Estrada laughed at his power. Compare to Povetkin who staggered Estrada in the tenth round and had Estrada on his last legs. It's clear Adamek's power isn't true heavy power, because Povetkin is not a noted puncher, more an accumulative type.

    Still, professional performance but if he's fighting Arreola he could be in a world of trouble based on the way Estrada was allowed to be aggressive and could easly take his punches. Can Adamek take Arreola's aggression and power? He's been hurt before by Cunningham and Banks, tough ask

    No problem mate. Wasn't a classic by any means, wouldn't bother acquiring it. Although I was shitting bricks whenever Estrada let one go as I had 300 on Adamek. Got in on it while Adamek was 1/3 with Boylesports, knowing the odds would go out and I could get my money back if I was nervous.

    I think for 5 or 6 rounds Khan would make Valero look poor but eventually Khan would get tagged and then its goodnight vienna.

    Is Joan G still at 135? If so I've got to see Valero vs. Soto which should have already gone down in a venue like Houston or hell let's feed Valero to Speed Racer and see what he's got vs. Guzman.

    Those are the two bouts I want to see. Problem though is if Soto gets him first, I see Soto boxing his ears off from the 6th on.
