Comments Thread For: Joe Cusumano Drops, Batters, Stops Adam Kownacki in Eight

Hoping Adam retires before something horribly bad becomes of him

Kownacki is not very bright and he has terrible advisor ( Al Haymon).

Adam should have been retired with two huge pay days ( Joshua and Chisora).

Now he probably even must fight on and become a trial horse, because he hasn`t made any big money.

He was headlining barclay centre a few times & co-featured on big events there. He has a big polish following so i’m sure he has done ok. Not massive money but he’s probably made a few million & if i remember correctly he has used his money wisely outside the ring.

It was a great fight actually, I hope Cusumano gets some bigger fight.

Kownacki looked good enough to be Tyson Fury's next fight , fury likes the old with no punch resistance and coming off KO losses or bad beatings

Read about Cusumano's camp. It'll explain the outcome.

That was probably the best bout of the night. Really fun.

Kownacki should retire.

I believe they mentioned Kownacki planned to hang them up after this fight if he won but performed poorly. I'm guessing/hoping he will retire since he lost this one. Cusumano put forth a gutsy performance, but Kownacki is a shell of what he once was. No more punch resistance and the vigor of his style is diminished.

His corner literally threw in the towel to stop the fight

What IS IT with the current online obsession with adding a completely redundant "literally" into everything? How else were they going to throw in the towel - metaphorically?

It's a shame, because that was a nice article by Jake Donovan otherwise.

Yeah, a guy who blocks punches with his face is always going to be supremely entertaining. But like John Duddy before him, it seems to cut their careers short.

It's also strange how when a chin is cracked, it seems to stay cracked, doesn't it? I remember putting £60 on a late era, post-Pantera Howard Eastman fight against a non-punching domestic opponent. I won, but he got badly wobbled in the last round and I nearly had a heart attack.

I didn't watch the fight and I've never heard of this guy or seen him before but based on a three-second animated gif I just saw on Twitter... Cusumano will knockout AJ at Madison Square Garden, it's his destiny.
