Adamek deseves respect.

U should have respected him going into the fight, but he doesn't get any more respect for the fight cuz he didn't do anything. If anything he loses respect, although I personally wouldn't go that far

Great thread! Adamek is a true warrior. Diva "Excusemaker" Gaye is a joke and a disgrace to boxing. Warriors actually harm their opponents. Adamek hasnt harmed anyone relevant in years and almost got ko'd by Michael Grant. Vitali is slightly better than Grant, so no surprise he won.

How do you differentiate bravery from stupidity? Bravery is when one jumps in to sea to save another . Stupidity is when one jumps in to sea to save another without knowing how to swim

He APPEARED to take more chances, because he was fighting a fighter who kept one of his hands near his knees......while Haye was fighting a fighter who wouldnt engage...... Who landed the hardest punch on the Klits....Haye or Adamek....I think we know who it was..... Wlad after the Haye fight...."it was a tough fight..." Vitali after Adamek fight..."Adamek should move down" Says it all really..... So because Haye landed the better punches, he is more of a warrior?:omfg: Haye claimed he was going to be as ferocious and as terrifying as Tyson when he enters the ring. He was going to pressurize Klitschko and knock him unconscious. Where was all of this? I didn't see him pressure Klitschko at one point in the fight, in fact he was running. Adamek was actually walking forward and trying to get off shots but Vitali simply outclassed him from start to finish. Adamek fights with pride and courage unlike Mr Haye. Haye is the better boxer but he will never have the courage and heart of Adamek. Accept it.

gotta give adamek his props for taking his beating like a man instead of running away like a biitch like haye

Lol at vitali being wobbled.

Bro, he wobbled Vitali like 2 times at least. He made an attempt at hitting Vitali and had a bigger size differential to overcome than Haye did against a more aggressive opponent in Vitali. Wobbled Vitali? :lol1: The size differential was negligible. Vitali being more aggressive gives Adamek more chance to throw and land. But he threw virtually the same as Haye. The double standard is plain to see.

He deserves respect for standing there and taking a beating and not throwing punches? Bro, he wobbled Vitali like 2 times at least. He made an attempt at hitting Vitali and had a bigger size differential to overcome than Haye did against a more aggressive opponent in Vitali.

I care about boxing ability, but good sportsmanship is important too. And I'll never root for 1) a loud-mouthed, lying fraud like Haye, 2) a woman-beater like Chisora, Braehmer, Robinson and Mayweather, 3) a criminal like LaMotta and Liston, or 4) a murderer like Butler. Those are the kind of slimebags who don't deserve to have fans. You seriously sound like a bra burning feminist sometimes....

He was trying to come forward and throw but was getting smacked by VK every time he came in or out before he could. To suggest he didn't take more chances than Haye is separation from reality. How is getting not defending yourself taking a chance? Its just plain stupidity. If he'd thrown a significant amount more than Haye, you might have a point

The is a huge difference in SPORTSMANSHIP and CHARACTER between Adamek and Haye. Adamek didn't say he was going to "KO both Klitschkos in 2010" and then duck both all year. He didn't say he was going to "shove Klitschko's jab up his ass" and then fight like a b1tch. And he didn't make a LAME excuse of a sore little toe after the fight. :lame: translation-Haye is Black and Adamek is a white euro

what kind of a retarded thread is this? Haye hurt wlad a couple of times, he actually had a decent shot even until the 12th to k0 him, in fact he hurt wlad in the 12th which wlad held on and then took control again adamek was destroyed and brutalised while haye was outpointed, are you forgetting how defensive wlad was as well at letting his punches go? both threw about the same punches, wlad put on a defensive masterclass, that was the difference

lol at all the idiots here who listened to Haye and took his word that it would be an interesting fight and Haye would be looking to mix it up. Yall are probably the ones that buy Mayweather fights looking for action fights as well b/c that's what he says. Learn to differentiate marketing and actually boxing plans. Haye boxed to make it as competitive as he could. Adamek L TKO10 Haye L UD

Becasue david haye is black and talked sh!t to hype the fight doesn't mean Thomas Adamek is courageous or deserves respect. Because ADamek said Vitali is good and Haye didn't say it to Wlad doesn't mean anything. You're agenda is clear, your bigotry clearer, your stupidity clearest. You know what the difference will be if Vitali fights Haye? Yes, people will tune in. No one will buy or watch Adamek anymore after his performance. Ah now I see where you are going with this.. Because David Haye is black right? Dear oh dear. Get a grip of life pal, If you know me on this forum you would know I'm the least racist poster on BS. Your agenda is clear - that everyone is racist when they condemn a black fighter. Obviously your illogical way of thinking sums up your ridiculous self. Haye is an embarrassment that conned millions into thinking Klitschko was going to be annihilated on the big stage 'No doubt'. No doubt he'll con a few more when he fights Vitali for another pay check. and yeah you know why they'll be tuning into Vitali - Haye? Because they want to see Haye get destroyed.

David Haye deserves respect for what? His mouth? Promising millions of people 'This will be the most brutal execution of a fighter you've ever seen' You have respect for David better known as 'Pinky Toe' Haye? You respect David Haye? GTFO. Respecting a clown such as David Haye after all that nonsense he sprouted prior to the fight. Makes me sick that people still buy into his crap. You know what the difference will be if Vitali fights Haye? Haye will quit on his stool or take a knee, and say 'no mas'. Adamek has more courage and heart than Haye will ever have. At least Adamek applauded Vitali and admitted he was just to good unlike Haye. I suggest you go to youtube and type 'David Haye interviews'. That might refresh your memory and remind you of the con man he is. Becasue david haye is black and talked sh!t to hype the fight doesn't mean Thomas Adamek is courageous or deserves respect.

Wait a minute. Black guy who throws very few punches and complains about broken toe deserves no respect but the white guy who takes and ass whippin and throws no punches deserves respect? Some of you guys neeed real help. David Haye deserves respect for what? His mouth?

Let's be real here. Anybody with sense, never really gave either men a great chance to win pre-fight. The difference is, one knew he had a punchers chance so (stupidly) was trying to land one big punch. While the other had no gameplan, and just stood there getting his face punched in.

Im not even defending Haye's performance. But the double standard is amazing to me.. I think its clear what the double standard is but lets not go there.
