Comments Thread For: Arreola vs Adamek is Not Even Remotely Near a Deal

[The Hammer]

Adamek as in the former Light heavyweight?

Not a good deal for Adamek.

I agree. Arreola is too big and too strong for Adamek.

Adamek should go back to cruiserweight, he never had any problems making weight. He's just not big enough for heavyweight.

well Adamek does have his next fight in Feb at Heavy

but if he cannot make Cruiser anymore and continues fighting at HW, vs Arreola would be a good step.

How does Arreola keep getting dates on HBO? If they pick up his next fight, but not Wlad's that's some crazy ****.

I'd be ok with Arreola vs Adamek or Arreola vs Tua, but they shouldn't wrap dates around him.

Not only Klitchko, but HBO has some kind of agenda against Adamek as well. I don't understand why they won't give this guy some love. I mean, an Adamek-Arreola fight isn't my first choice for a fight for Adamek. But if the guy is willing to fight anybody, then I don't see how you can kick him to the curb.

Tomasz has no problem making cruiserweight, he just couldn't get a good payday at that weight. He wasn't "killing himself to make weight" like David Haye.

HBO and Showtime rejected Adamek-Johnson last summer, then turned down Adamek-Hopkins and Adamek-Cunningham II.

But it seems Ross Greenburg doesn't mind showing Adamek being beaten up by Arreola, who's just too big, too strong and too difficult to hurt. And Arreola's boxing skills are underestimated by most people, he throws very good combintions and his defense is generally solid.

Arreola-Tua would be the most exciting, with somebody getting put to sleep. Nightmare would clobber Adamek IMO. Not too sure what to expect from Lights Out at this stage in his career. He's been out a while and isn't exactly a youngin anymore..

As for why HBO keeps booking Cristobal... The dude's exciting!! Knocks fools out left and right. You act like he's Winky Wright or Cory Spinks! And Wlad?? He's robotic like a mother$#^%. Yes, he's good, but the guy's too stiff. Let him keep fighting on German TV, not HBO. Watching Wlad fight is like popping an ambien- ZZZZZZZZ

[Corelone]

What's Cristobal going to weigh this time? Maybe he kept coming at Klits, but it was slower and slower. That last fight with..uh..was like Adamek, too small, but Arreola is getting bigger and bigger! There are limits, he already met one. The next one may be fatal.

I'd like to see James Toney fight either one of these guys. In shape he might be able to beat either one of them. Adamek vs Arreola would definetly be pretty good too.
