Hopkins Calling Out Adamek?

[Rantcatrat]

At this point when Hopkins calls somebody out and it comes to fruition, I'd be shocked if he didn't win. So the consensus is that Hopkins could outbox him but he'd have to worry about getting clipped and KO'ed by the more powerful puncher? That makes it hard not to pick him for my money. Having said that of course Adamek is naturally the biggest guy Hopkins would have ever fought, but a size is hardly what you want going for you against Bernard. Thing that worries me is whether Hopkins can really put on more weight properly at 44, it's got to end somewhere. This isn't like fighting Pavlik who really wasn't any bigger than Hopkins naturally, although it could be in the sense that Adamek isn't quick or mobile enough to find him. GREAT fight if it's made imo.

Adamek isn't much bigger than Hopkins. They both stand 6'1 and change and have a 75" reach. Sure, Adamek is a big puncher, but he won't be able to catch Hopkins because Hopkins will throw combinations and clinch. Something he can't do against faster fighters. Adamek is somewhat of a bigger Pavlik and we saw what Hopkins did to Pavlik.

It explains why Hopkins wanted nothing to do with Dawson. A fight against Cunningham for the crown of Philly would have been huge, but Hopkins wants nothing to do with Cunningham.

Hopkins wide-UD.

Give Adamek his due because wins over O'Neil Bell, Steven Cunningham, Paul Briggs, and Jonathon Banks merit it. He has beat faster fighters many times, but he hasn't fought anyone close to as crafty as Bhop. Not many have. No one at 200 beats Adamek.

On the other hand, a Bhop v. Adamek would sell a ton of tickets at MSG or the Prudential Center in Newark and Adamek would have a career high pay day. No one at 200 would bring that big of a purse. Why not? It's not like Hopkins will hurt him. Then take a trip over the pond and wipe the floor with Enzo Mac.
