Can we ban this idiot Haye dick riders already? Get out of here with that ****. I'm not a Cunningham dick rider, I just thought he eeked out that fight by winning almost every round he didn't get KD in. I didn't keep a scorecard though, so I might be wrong, but I sure as **** didn't see no 116-110 for Adamek.
Cunningham couldn't miss Adamek all night -- he freaking COLD COCKED him in like the 5th and did NOTHING. He's a joke, and would be better fighting amateurs. NO POP, and NO CHIN. I thought this guy was the truth, but instead he's another in the line of Philly boxers who should be boxing yet choose to fight. MORON. Guy's nothing. That judge that gave to fight to him should be fired NOW.
I don't think he was landing as much as you think, Cunningham blocked a lot of those shots, and all the shots that put him down were when Adamek threw with him. Cunningham's beard is pretty **** though, I give him props for getting up and fighting back, and the fact that Adamek couldn't put him away is impressive. I just thought Cunningham landed enough clean shots in most rounds to win them, and that Adamek just wasn't active or landed enough. I think people fall in love with a power puncher, especially when they KD the other guy, they think every landed punch is seconds away from another KD, and it skews their viewpoint.. IMHO that's what I saw. I might watch it again and see it different.
I know 10 times the boxing you do. You have no idea. I used to talk with Wally Matthews all the time. You don't know JACK, kid. We get it -- you must be related to USS Fraud, but shut your stupid mouth. You can't score a fight, and you don't know what you're talking about. PERIOD. SHUT UP, and stop making a bigger ass of yourself than you already have, clown.
That score is bull****, but the two or three point lead for Adamek was mirrored by many posters here, as well as the VS audience scoring online, as well as the commentators, as well as one judge. I wasn't faithfully keeping score myself, too busy picking my jaw up off the ground, but by my estimation that 115-112 is right on. Watch the fight again ASAP, I know I will be!
You have to offset how much one guy is outlanding his opponent with the disparity in punishing effect of the blows. It's a balance. If Fighter A lands 45 out of 60 Calzaghe-like slaps and Fighter B lands 10 out of 40 Ding-a-Ling bombs, obviously Fighter A wins on any unbiased scoredcard. However, if Fighter A lands 18 out of 25 less damaging blows, and Fighter B lands 13 out of 23 but they all rock Fighter A, you have to say Fighter B won.
I haven't even seen Steve Cunningham fight before you ****ing idiot. Why the **** do I have to be some damned dick-rider to say someone won the fight. I'm not calling Intentional Butt a Adamek dick-rider am I? No, because were both BOXING FANS. I don't know **** about Cunningham other than what I've read online. I've seen Adamek multiple times, and I was glad when he TKO'd O'Niell Bell. Different people judge fights different ways, I scored on Cunninghams clean shots, some score on Adamek's aggression.
Adamek couldn't put him away because Adamek wasn't throwing punches for ****. Cunningham was LUCKY for that. Adamek was busting him up badly virtually whenever he did throw punches. Adamek constantly allowed Cunningham to get off first. Cunningham fought a commendable fight, but he lost to the better man.
IB, I know what you're saying, but sometimes I think you pre-judge how effective a shot is by your prior knowledge of a fighter, you're gonna instantly say a guy like Cunningham doesn't hit hard (and you'd be right) and thus be willing to score one Adamek shot, to say 3 or 4 Cunningham shots.. but you have look at how effective, how clean, etc those shots were. I think it's what boxing has so many bad decisions, I don't think it was tonight, I don't fully agree, but when you KD a guy three times, you usually win.
115-112 is really the score on the mark. Up to round 7 I thought Adamek won 5 rounds.Cunningham hurt Adamek in only one round of this fight and Adamek survived that one on determination (he was barely clinching). The knockdown at the end of that round should be counted as one of the most remarkable swings in any round of this year. Even though 2 of the 3 knockdowns looked hellacious, I thought Cunni took them very well. Both guys have great chins. I thought Adamek faded in rounds 8-12, possibly due to fatigue. Adamek looked slightly more heavy with his weight than usual and this could have contributed to the slowdown. Cunningham was tired as well and could only manage to edge out a little more than half of the rest of the rounds. This was a FOTY candidate from round 2, just like most followers of these two predicted.
you look a ***get in ur myspace picture, now look queereye, Cunningham ain't gonna win no fight with one hand alrite? yeah he kept a nice jab but Adamek not to mention 3 knock downs, also throwing 3 punch combos, and yeh cunningham did look good here and there, and im giving props to him, but he even admitted it was his fault he should of stick to boxing, maybe the knock downs didn't happen, and Adamek made him fight his fight, so stfu
I like both of these guys. Cunningham fought very well early and definitely won the 4th round 10-8 before getting knocked down. As he tired, his output ebbed and waffled some (though he seemed to step it up out of desperation whenever it seemed Adamek was coming on) and even when his punch volume was high he wasn't as sharp as he was at the outset. Adamek fought consistently every round of the fight, every minute of every round. That's what edged it for him. Cunningham would have some really good spurts and find his jab, double and triple it up in impressive fashion, throw in some right hands when he got his confidence up and realized he could get away with hitting Adamek at his comfortable range without much retribution, but that would account for like one cumulative minute of the round, while Adamek would just plow ahead keeping himself in front of Cunningham throwing hard awkward shots the entire three minutes...and the two minutes where Cunningham isn't doing anything have to be awarded to Tomasz on aggression and ring generalship. Two minutes beats one minute, yes? (unless the one minute is won in spectacular fashion, and for the most part in the middle rounds and down the stretch Steve just didn't).
A '******' who would snap your pencil neck in two, *******. Check the other pics. Cunningham did ****, and got decked three times. You and Cunningham Dickrider guy need to learn how to score a professional fight. Shut up, learn to score and don't type again until you understand what you're talking about.
