Cruiserweight fights are very entertaining, like the old heavyweight fights were.
People like Marciano, Dempsey, and even Ali in the early 60s fought at weights below 200.Comment

These guys are gonna straight beat the crap out of each other. There won't be a backwards step until someone gets hurt.Comment

I know Adamek is the clear favorite and Banks doesen't have the greatest chin but he hits much harder and despite his chin Adamek was still hurt by the relatively light hitting Cunningham.
Adamek will come forward and give Banks his best chance to win the fight. Make no mistake either, Banks has legitimate knockout power in either hand. If he gets Adamek hurt he will be able to finish him.
Adamek by late KOComment

He is also a southpaw and a slick boxer/puncher. Guys that dance around all night give Banks trouble. However guys like Adamek who stand in front of him and trade get taken out.
This fight will not last long enough for conditioning to be a factor. Banks intend to knock him out and bring the title back to Joe Louis Arena.Comment

CW should be eliminated from the sport. Jack Dempsey and Joe Louis were "Cruisers", some of the great HWs of all time. Part of the reason the HW division is filled with fat guys is because all of the athletic heavies are cutting weight.Comment

Two strong punchers face off.
Banks was knocked down twice by Castillo and in other fights as well. Adamek has better skills, but he isn't too hard to hit either.
This one is NOT going the distance!Comment
