coming from a hopkins fan, OG fan since day one, hopkins is my favorite all time fighter, i have to say, that Adamek is a live dog in this fight and has got a good chance at beating hopkins.

obviously i wanted hopkins to win, but to think Adamek is easy pickens, yall are tripping, because, he's proven to be not only tough but has proven his ability to adapt in a fight.

he's bigger than hopkins, he's athletic and has a granite chin.......... tough fight for hopkins.

i think movement and inside work will be the difference in hopkins winning the fight.


adamek is no cake walk........

That's exactly what I'm saying. I'm a huge hopkins fan but this fight worries me MUCH more than a fight with Dawson. If I were to choose the easier opponent, I'd go with Dawson, as Dawson is hugely overrated right now after beating a washed up Tarver and barely sneaking by Johnson, whereas Adamek is really on top of his game and riding the high of two sensational wins.

Hopkins would out point Dawson, or at the absolute worst lose an extremely close, controversial decision. Against Adamek, a guy with HUGE power and is much bigger, any thing can happen. You just don't know how this fight will play out.

For sure, I totally agree. I just think Grand Pa Hop "The season vet" will frustrate him with his superior defense and win a UD. Its also wishful thinking, but I truly believe this will happen if the fight takes place. It'll be interesting.

I think Hopkins is capable of doing what he did to Pavlik to Adamek. The difference is pure size, and Adamek's terrific chin. It'll be close, I'd give the edge to Hopkins.

You're also forgeting that Dawson beat Adamek, badly.

After watching, Adamek and Hopkins last 5 fights, I think Hopkins is getting KTFO. Adamek is too big and strong for Hopkins, he have a great chin and he is very patient in the ring also. Hopkins will look good te first 3 rounds, after that hell get beat up by Adamek, to the body and head, shot by shot, 1 by 1 and like in round 9 Adamek, wll press the gas pedal, and KTFo Hopkins!!!!!!!!

Way to go Hopkins, ducking Dawson and move up to fight a guy who is tailor made for your style.

I agree. This is a nice fight for Hopkins. Adamek is tailor made for him.

Why leave the division to fight Adamek when you can fight the man who beat him in your division?

Dawson would be a much tougher fight than Adamek.

Hopkins knows that too.

If it happens, i expect a wide decision for Hopkins

[Carlisle]

Hopkins will kick Adameks ass

The only drama in this fight is the size difference... Size doesn't matter against a legend.

I'm not forgetting, I think it's obvious Adamek has improved tremendously over the last 6 fights and is at a much more comfortable weight for him as Adamek was severely weight drained at 175.
