In another era Adamek is a brillant heavyweight. I think right now he should fight someone else who got dealt with by a Klitschko.
If Calvin Brock was fighting I'd like to see that. Let Shannon Briggs fight Adamek if he wants to come back so bad.
Once Adamek got his shoe taped up things went rather smooove last night. Too bad for Arreola being so out of shape.
I'd also like to see Adamek Vs. Liakhovich.

Idk if I compare the Adamek/Arreola fight with the Klitschko/Arreola fight, it looks real bad for Adamek. Klitschko would kick his ass.
Adamek should try to fight a Haye. The question is who first? How about another fight against Banks? If he could get past Banks he would deserve a title shot.
Would Samuel Peter be interested in fighting Adamek? Would Adamek have a chance?
He really did well in keeping his head and being smart with Arreola.I really though he would get sucked into a give and take once he was stunned but impressed with his focus.He put shots together very well but showed he could be rocked whenever he stayed still,and Arreola while a big puncher cant put combos together to save his life.Arreola gets a lot of shit and some deserved but he was as good as hes going to be,there will never be a "in shape Arreola".They dont exist.If he was 225 it wouldnt make a world of difference...its his mentality and fighting style that gets him where he is.Haye/Adamek would be a great fight.Both offer much needed shots to the division and worked their way past the "blown up cruiser" label.Their legit...and I like Haye to beat him close.
he's already done more than Haye did to "earn" himself a shot at a HW titleQuote:

I like Adamek. He's a breath of fresh air in a division that sorely needs it. Unfortunately, he ain't got the size to hang with the Klitschkos, and he's destined to be yet another one of the bunch. Still waiting for that HW that can put fear in the heart of the Klitschkos.
Adamek has some surprisingly nice defense, not saying he's a defensive master but he turns his head nicely into punches...I honestly don't think he was rocked or hurt to much by arreola's punches it's just that the force of them simply pushed him back...I don't think he can take either klitschko though , would love to see him in with haye, which would be a hell of a close fight probably, or povetkin which could be a war with adamek taking it late...last nights fight was the most exciting hw fight I've seen since lykovich brewster

Adamek fighting Peter and others extends the joy. Adamek fighting Klitschko ends with Adamek losing and then just taking a step backwards. No one will care what happens to him after that.
Amen to that. I would even add that for the same reason we should postpone Haye-Adamek fight. I would rather see Arreola-Haye fight first.Quote:

Cant argue with that
He should progress with his attempt to build solid muscle as he sure as hell didnt look like a natural 217pounder saturday night almost being dwarfed by arreolas flab.
Some tune up fights with the likes of chagaev, chambers etc before moving on to the big boys ie:wlad, vitali, haye
Idk looking at Peter's last fight....that doesn't look like a fight Adamek should want. He'd be better off trying his luck against Chambers. Looks like Peter is fitter than Arreola and probably hits harder too. Adamek can dodge him I guess but for how long?Quote:

Adamek has already done more then most in his short time...More then Haye has anyhow by fighting and beating a top 10 ranked HW...This was what his 2 or 3rd HW fight?....Unlike Haye who rested on his CW morals to get his shot..Quote:

No matter what I like the guy and think this is good for HW boxing...Getting more quality guys who are not massive and can make some good fights...
Too bad Sultan retired...
I actually was more impressed with Arreola's initial approach to the fight than Adamek's overall contribution. When he remembered to stay on the back foot, he was outboxing Adamek imo.
To be tottally honest, I only saw the 1st 7 or 8 rounds but I know that after 6 completed rounds, I had it 4-2 for Arreola.
Adamek must of really come on in the last rounds. Either that or Arreola went to shit?
What happend ???
Well the injury certainly didnt help the situation for Arreola, although I Adamek still likely would have won.Quote:
