Polish website reports Hopkins vs. Adamek is in discussions

[larryx]

This is pointless for Hopkins, and Hopkins should not do this. He is 44, and moving up a weight division against the currently best CW.

IMO, I feel Adamek is going to retire Hopkins if this pointless bout goes ahead

just like pavlik was suppose to right

Adamek better reconsider. He's never stepped in the ring wit someone on Bernard's level.

Banks was frustrating Adamek with simple movement and looping right hands. B Hop can win this fight possibly in dominating fashion.

Adamek and his people should not fight BHOP. To dangerous.

That could happen just watching the Dawson fight shows that Hopkins has a very good chance at a wide UD but Adamek has very good power and could hurt Bhop it will be a very intresting fight.

If B-Hop tires like he did against Joe, Adamek might KO him.

That will never happen, Hopkins has never tired badly in any fight apart from the Calzaghe one, and that is because Calzaghe is a 15 round fighter with the best workrate in boxing.

How did you come to this conclusion????

i dont think adamek has power that is all that imo he is a good fighter, has an underrated skill set, a rock hard chin, a good jab and good technique, he is an intelligent pressure fighter who can outhtink the other fighter and he takes his time. i dont see adamek KO;ing hopkins, i just can't see it happening, and vice versa.

what i can see is a genuinely good pick em fight. both of these guys are relatively small CW's and the size difference although notable shouldn't be huge. both of these guys fight very much at their own pace so i can see the fight going at a slow pace although it would have it moments.

b-hop would come in at a strong weight that wouldn't hinder his speed, i can't see him coming in at over 190, i think he would look to utilise his movement and right hand, Banks and Cunningham especially had alot of success with the right hand, i see hopkins having similar success with his.

adamek however is avery clever fighter, he can adjust and adapt his approach. i see him utilising his jab and maybe even his left hook now and again. he should look to keep hopkins moving with his feints and jab, i think hopkins power might imrpove but adamek could literally walk through hopkins punches, he has a good chin and hopkins powr ins't all that.

i see adamek winning with his jab by UD.
