Good news. Adamek will be a decent name on Vitali's record. Let's hope he can make it competitive for at least a couple of rounds, but I very much doubt it
I remember Hide going for it against Bowe and got out muscled and knocked down at the end. Hide was a pretty good all round boxer, but if you don't have the power or strength against a top HW, you will really struggle. Adamek will also go after Vitali with some success, but ultimately he too will struggle to make the necessary impact. Not only has Vitali got simular power and weight as Bowe, he is also supremely fit.......
I reckon it will be a harder fight as Adamek will be much more mobile and attack minded. I can see some exciting exchanges going on, as we know both men are not shy of a good scrap. It's a shame that Adamek hasn't got the power to shake Vitali, but i hope to be proved wrong....
I believe Adamek will look better against Vitali than Haye will look vs Wladimir. Adamek is just better than Haye, I have long said Haye is not only not the best heavyweight in the world, hes not even the best cruiserweight move up to heavyweight.
I think Adamek will show a good fight and not quit. He's in front of his own fans and will fight to the bitter end.
Vitali and Wlad are two different type of fighters. No one looks good against Wlad because of his well drilled style. Vit is more of a fighter and naturally attacks more, leaving himself more open to counters, but still defensively good. Haye has one thing that Adamek doesn't, and that is pure power.
Great news Chef, this fight will definitely be better than Vitali's last fight against Solis. This might resemble Foreman-Holyfield but I'm not sure about Adamek's durability. His mobility is good and with an aging Vitali it would be best to use a lot of lateral movement around him getting in and out of range and attacking at multiple angles. Adamek needs to look at Morrison-Foreman, Holyfield-Foreman, and Quarry-Lyle to get an idea what strategy he needs to use against Vitali. I just don't think he'll handle Vitali even at his aging stage well.
adamek will have some success early out speeding vitali. he will probably win 3 or 4 rounds. but vitali has the best timing and accuracy combined with power adamek ever fought. his akward style and his armpunches are extremly dangerous. i think vitali will end this fight before the tenth round via refree stoppage. vitali will hurt adamek a lot of times. but adamek is a great fighter. it's pity for him that at the top are two athletic skilled and crazy power super heavys who fight tall
