    Just because Eddie is fast doesn't make him more skilled than Adamek. Idiot.

    He is a angry Haye fan.

    Dont mind him.

    He will give Ricky the nod for the HOF despite doing less than Adamek:deal

    He's in the Hall of Very Good, but not quite in the HOF. Ironically for him, his ambition might just keep him out of the Hall. Had he held on to his titles at a smaller weight and wracked up a lot of defenses, he might have had a better shot.

    The tag of "3 weight world champ" ceased to mean much the day Duke McKenzie beat Jesse Benavides.

    Personally I'm undecided whether Michalczewski and Virgil Hill should be inducted, and both are a level above Adamek in ability and accomplishments.

    The only plausible route to the HoF for Adamek at the moment is through a Klitschko, and that obviously isn't going to happen.

    Adamek is already a Hall of Famer. The man only fought the best, two weight division champion, fan friendly style and is loved by his people. What more should a fighter do to get there? If Calzaghe with the biggest joke of a resume is in there why not Adamek?

    I don't get the endless hate Adamek gets from ******s here.

    BTW for those who say he would have to win a title at HW to make it.

    I would say if he did that he would be in ATG discussions not just HOF.

    If Adamek beats povetkin then ya I'd think of him as a hoffer. Probably not by the strictest standards but far worse fighters and resume's then his have made it into the hof.

    If he won the real title. Lets not forget the only weight he hasn't been beaten by a better man is crusierweight. Chad beat him at lightheavy and Vitali beat him at Heavy. Cunningham was the best when Adamek beat him. But even then he was never really at that weight long enough to test himself against the majourity of the top of the crop at that weight. At Heavy his resume is very impressive but he's not the best. That much is clear. Even if he does win the title. This isn't ATG type stuff. But it is HOF for sure.

    If he were(which he wont)he would be the only man to win titles at the 3 highest weight classes.

    That's why i mention ATG(even though he isnt close)

    I'd put him up there with Norton on achievements if he did this and I think Norton is HOF? If so then he'd be up there.

    Care to name a few, other than the obvious heavyweights?

    I'm struggling to think of any far worse fighters than Adamek, and virtually everyone in the Hall has better signature wins.
