    Beating up a former LHW is not that impressive a feat. What is impressive is being 40 years old, throwing many more punches than the average HW, and showing no signs of tiring or fading. 40-year old Vitali could have fought 12 rounds at that pace. That alone is pretty amazing.

    look at Holys physique though. hes not carrying excess weight like adamek or Arreola. plus holy is 49 shot to death and should have been heavy champ against Valuev. what a **** era to be in.

    Than explain your point better..

    What I got from your comment was "the division is weak, cruisers have to add spice to it?"

    Cruisers or even Light Heavyweights stepping up to the big leagues to challenge the Champion is nothing new and has been a staple of the sport for decades. This goes back to Conn/Louis, Charles/Walcott, Moore/Marciano, Foster/Frazier, Spinks/Holmes, Holyfield/Douglas, Moorer/Holyfield..etc.

    Because Adamek Fans over rated Adamek, mother ****er barely got by Grant and you all cant even own up to that the kid went into this fight with a false sense of confidence and reality set it in round 1

    So if the Klitschko fans over rate this win its the Adamek fans fault.

    So? An anciet shot to death Holmes should have been a belt holder in the 90s against McCall? Do we use that to degrade Holyfield, Tyson, and Lewis?

    And Michael Moorer ate his way to Heavyweight and became undisputed Champion? Your ****ing point? And there's nothing wrong with Adamek's body anyway, if anything TOO MUCH MUSCLE MASS.

    Let's not get into speaking about Holyfield and Adamek at HW in the same sentence please.

    I thought the fight was incredibly predictable. Apparently Adamek is overrated. I doubt he'd have amounted to anything more at HW in this era than he did in any other era of the last 30 or so years.

    Sad twats, don't realize the point.

    THe point is that Cruisers in the HW rankings the not the sign of times, please beat that into your thick skulls. THERE WAS NO DIRECT COMPARISION TO HOLYFIELD AND ADAMEK!

    If you can't see the difference between Holyfield or even Spinks and Adamek, I'll leave you to it.

    Why does Adamek have to equal Holyfield?

    AGAIN, YOU STUPID SORRY EXCUSE FOR A BOXING POSTER, THE POINT WAS THAT CRUISERS IN THE HEAVYWEIGHT RANKINGS DOES NOT EQUAL BAD ERA.

    If Adamek beat both K-Brothers to become the undisputed Champion, than we can talk.

    Holyfield was an exception to the rule, an exceptional fighter, Adamek at HW is not, far from it, do you understand?

    An exceptional fighter like Holyfield, who dealt well with the weight upgrade, making it in the HW division, is not the same as Adamek making it there today.

    the orginial god damn argument was that cruisers adding spice to the division equals bad era.

    This is a fallacy as cruisers and light heavyweights have reached the apex of the divison in a variety of eras.

    And Evander is not the exception, he is one of many.
