Work gets the five day finger salute I'm just glad Cunningham finally gets the biggie in his backyard. It seems a lifetime ago I picked Cunningham to beat Adamek. Oops. Now though Adamek has been so much deeper at heavy than Cunningham has. In the back of my mind I think of smallish Chambers giving him problems and that was said to be with one hand. But here I think Adamek is just a grindstone, a high caliber workhorse who does not detour. At close to 205 lbs your name better be Holyfield or its going to be a long rocky road. Cunningham should do well early but I think he gets sucked in and worn down late. Personally though, hope to be wrong.

Hamer has that Glen Johnson head thing going on keep the hat on

Unfortunate he had to drop the 'cowardly' label on Glazkov
