He should. After all, Adamek is a natural Light Heavyweight who lost to and went the distance with Chad Dawson. Therefore, anything less than a TKO, would be a huge disappointment for Vitali, since he's so much stronger, bigger and better than Chad Dawson.
why didnt he..margo never even looked like he was gonna fall..and don't give me that mercy bullsh1t...vitali beat briggs worse than manny beat margo
It's my opinion had he pushed more in the 11th and 12th the ref would've stopped it. We will never know whether that's true or not though, obviously.
He probably did, but then again, he is a HW. Lewis knocked Briggs out in the 5th - after multiple KD's - when he was in his prime. Vitali hitting him with power punches on the chin non stop for 12 rounds without even putting him on the canvas tells me that his power isn't the same as it used to be.

Pac busted Margo up pretty good as well.
In addition to the broken orbital socket Margarito suffered in his brutal loss to Manny Pacquiao last November, “The Tijuana Tornado” also suffered a detached retina in that fight.

Adamek is in for the same beating as Briggs and Arreola
Please, you all are acting like Adamek is some scrub. Dude is not going to stand there like Briggs did the entire time. People will be surprised at how Adamek will be able to stun Vitali, this fight goes the distance.
50mil fight doesn't go the distance. I know you like to bet with me mathed))

Shannon Briggs ended up in the hospital with a broken left orbital bone in his face, a broken nose and torn left biceps, after going toe-to-toe for 12 treacherous rounds against the WBC heavyweight champion, Vitali Klitschko in Hamburg, Germany, according to a report from ESPN.com.
"He was in intensive care after the fight for precautionary reasons. The injuries are not life-threatening. He's just banged up."
Said Briggs of the champ, "I've fought George Foreman, I've fought Lennox Lewis, and Vitali's the best. He hits harder than Foreman, he's got incredibly fast hands."

"Former two-time world heavyweight champion Shannon Briggs, who spent 12 days in a German hospital after sustaining a wicked, 12-round beating at the powerful hands of current world champion Vitali Klitschko in October, is fighting back."
Yes, but Briggs wasn't prime and tore his bicep early in the fight. Vitali hit him with power punches non stop for 12 rounds pretty much.
Manny could've stopped Margo, but Shane and Clottey covered up. Also, Pac is no HW.
Vitali had major back issues in 2005-2008 or whenever it was, that might have contributed.

Vitali's power has certainly faded since 04.
He's much more of a volume puncher now. He breaks his opponents down with output mainly, i bet he still has decent pop though.
Did you see Briggs after the fight? last person to stop briggs was ATG lennox Lewis after Briggs rocked his world.plus Briggs is a mountain of a man now.thats like saying.Manny couldnt stop Margarito and Shane and Clottey so i doubt his punching power

Power is the last thing that you lose...

I see Vitali winning this easily.
Adamek is undersized, lacks power at heavyweight, his speed is average and his overall boxing ability simply isn't enough to overcome what Vitali brings to the table.
Adamek is a good fighter but even this older version of Vitali is far too much for him.
Adamek will come to fight, if Vitali has some power left he should stop him.
Him not being able to stop Briggs makes me wonder how much power he's got left though.

Better believe Adamek is coming to fight. This will not be an easy night for Vitali. Adamek is going to bring it, win or lose, he isn't sitting down without a fight.
true.he'll be lying down

That fight should have been stopped like 3 times. The ref should be ashamed of himself. Briggs' face was literally broken after the fight. It was worse than Pacquiao-Margarito.

I completely agree. It'll be one sided as hell. After seeing Adamek struggle against Grant, there's no way this even goes the distance unless Vitali is ridiculously shot. And of course he'd have no reason to be.
