    Adamek as a heavyweight: a threat ?

    Adamek looked very impressive against past prime but still hard hitting Golota. He wants to stay at Heavyweight, and climb his way up to the Heavyweight ladder.
    Can he be a champ, a force to reckon with?
    His trainer thinks he has what it takes to challenge the Klitschko brothers. He has the speed, the heart, underrated skills and a much improved defense.

    How big are his chances to follow the footsteps of Holyfield?

    He could be a champ and has serious chances against the K bros

    He could be a force to reckon with but couldn't beat the K, he's too small.

    Adamek won't go very far as a Heavyweight.

    He could beat small fighters but once he feels the power of a real Heavyweight he's done.

    Too early to tell. He's a very good fighter, but at that weight he's going to have to face some giant guys.

      I think he has the chin for it. But everytime i see this guy fight i think of him losing to Dawson. That being said i dont think he matches well with the Klitschko's

        Too early to say, I'd love to see Haye-Adamek even if Haye doesn't win

            I'm starting to come around to the fact that Adamek may very well be the TRUTH. However, he won't beat the brothers. I reckon he'd batter anyone else, though - including Haye.

              I think he could comfortably become a top 5 heavyweight but he won't beat the Klitschkos and there are a couple other names that I'd pick over him too.

                I'm not so sure, Adamek eats too many punches for my liking. Banks and Cunningham wobbled him, but couldn't put him down and you can chalk that up to Adameks granite chin.

                Haye however, hits harder than both those fighters and if were to believe Monte Barrett, he hits as hard as Wladmir Klitschko. Eating too many punches against a knockout artist is always going to spell trouble no matter how good your chin is.
