Funny thing is Adamek may challenge the Klitschko's before Haye. ;D Adamek is a good fight against any heavyweight not named Klitschko. And he makes for interesting fights at heavyweight because at his size he is very vulnerable to getting knocked out by a much bigger guy. I give Adamek credit. He's got to be closing in on top twenty p4p now. Champion at light heavyweight, champion at cruiserweight, and some solid wins at heavyweight.
He should absolutely get a lot of credit. I was pretty impressed with his ability to take a shot, although Grant connected a little more often that I was expecting, given the agility differential. Adamek doesn't spout any crap - he just gets in the ring and gives it all he's got. That's my kind of fighter.
I agree either Klitschko puts a hurt on him though.
From what I've read, I've seen a lot of "He takes a good shot" and I think that could be a horrible thing because of what is says about his defense.
I give the guy credit for winning fights at heavyweight but I think he's too small to have prolonged success.
Grant would have destroyed him in his prime.
I haven't watched this fight yet. Is it worth my effort?
I quite enjoyed it. One of the better heavyweight fights you will see this year. To Adameks credit, you rarely see him in a dull fight. There are always little ebbs and flows to keep things interesting.Quote:

I just watched it, was quite a good scrap for Heavyweight's today. Tomasz Adamek won the first 5 rounds easy, then in the 6th round Michael Grant caught Tomasz Adamek, coming in with a right hand right on the button.Quote:

Then the fight changed somewhat Michael Grant was more offensive/aggressive, and won some rounds. The 10th round was even then the 11th round was a big Tomasz Adamek round.
But the 12th round Tomasz Adamek was hurt quite bad, but he survived it and comeback firing.
Overall Tomasz Adamek took some good shots from a big Heavyweight, he was also cut on both eyes. But he boxed well and a won atleast 8 or 9 rounds, the fight had some ebb and flow and overall its worth a watch.
