Why isnt everyone pissed about johnson vs adamek?

[Down4TheCount]

everyone here is so quick to bash the **** out of the floyd mayweather for having a tune up fight with jmm in wich marquez has to come up 8 pounds to fight floyd and floyd has to come down 5 lbs. ( could be 144 im assuming its 143 )

adamek come fight time isnt a huge cruiserweight he comes in around the 205 mark just like floyd comes in right around 147 and also doesnt blow up for his fights at welterweight. NOW to get to the point here i have yet to see one person calling adamek a " ***** , ***** , cherry picker , coward , ducker " etc...

the bigger issue here that pisses me off is jmm is going up 8 pounds while johnson is going up THIRTY FREAKING POUNDS how about that.

now i guess the same people who bash the tale of the tape numbers floyd supporters post to help their arguement , will use the tale of the tape numbers for their own johnson arguement. go ahead try it , this site is full of biased , hypocritical posters. some are great posters just to many ****in biased haters.

end rant.

Adamek has a recent history of fighting the best

also i guess it's because Glen Johnson is moving up but one weightclass willingly, while Marquez may be forced to move up two weightclasses to please Floyd

the amount of pounds gained/lost is relative to size, if you hadn't noticed the lower weights are much closer together as a couple pounds makes more of a difference down there

for the record I'm all for Floyd/Marquez i just don't particularly want it at 147lbs

Adamek actually fought and beat other top Cruiserweights. Johnson also offered to move up to Cruiserweight.

the diff between ww and lww is 7 pounds just like lhw and smw , so its not that much of a differance really between weight diff relative to the divisions. the only big disparity is jumping from lhw to cruiser wich is exactly what hed be doing regardless if its just one weight class its still 30 pounds compared to 8.

and for the record im for both fights and would love to watch both , im just tired of haters and their hypocritical views on the matter.

He's beat top quality Cruiserweights and now he's facing a guy who's moving up. A guy with a VERY solid beard. A guy who deserves the payday, not to mention. You also get the feeling that this wouldn't be a pattern. It seems that he'll fight/beat Johnson, then go after another challenger.

This is all after discussions with Bernard Hopkins and a move up to Heavyweight fell through.

Nothing against Mayweather, he's fought tough fights, but he and Adamek don't attack their careers the same way.

im pretty annoyed at this fight not being made - adamek isn't a huge david haye type CW so i think it would be an even fight.

both guys come to fight and neither backs down - heck now im really piŁŁed!!

Is it actually canceled? I still held some hope that Showtime would pick it up

[Ravishing]

Though I agree that the fight should be made either way, it's understandable why HBO would not broadcast the fight based on their overall popularity compared to many other fights that will be featured throughout the year.

I have found Showtime is a better avenue for the "Not So High" profile fights that more time than none provide much more action, but I belive HBO's presentation is always top notch (but Showtime isn't bad either)

THe size thing isn't so much about pounds, it's about the percentage of weight you have to gain/lose. Nonetheless, the jump is much different for both men and it's a bigger one for Glen Johnson.
