        It is probably because it's playing on my DVR right now, but the announcers just said how surprising it was that Cunningham has no real hand speed advantage over Adamek. I think they are mostly right.

        Adamek definitely gets my vote, although the Dawson fight looked the opposite.

          I'm most impressed with Adamek's ability to generate a lot of power with short punches.

            I'm pretty much impressed with everything about him. I mean, after he got completely wiped out by Dawson at 175, I thought he wasn't going to do much moving up to cruiserweight. I mean, 25 pounds is no joke, and I have a feeling that is one of the hardest transitions to make, from LHW to CW, but... man, he beats O'Neil Bell handily, takes Steve Cunningham out in a way that made him look really great, and showed that he can overcome his flaws, and then completely dominates Banks.

            He's one to watch out for.

                Other than Lopez, I thought all of them were at least a little controversial. Good to know that I'm not alone.

                Did you like my addition to your division dominance thread? I tried really hard to think about the guys who were just unbeatable in their divisions, and that is what I came up with. People like Calzaghe were left off because of the possibility of Jones beating him at 168, and the closeness of the Robin Reid fight.
