    He was down by a trip in the Chad Dawson fight. Shown conclusively on replay (besides the punch was to the body, not the chin).

    I personally have a hard time seeing Chris hit anything but air. This isn't some brawler, Adamek is mobile, can box, defend himself, and he's simply not going to exchange with Chris like that.
    I agree, Areollas punching technique is going to be shown up here.

      People dont realize Adamek is quite nimble on his feet and his defense is pretty good also, I expect Arreola to take quite a bit of clean shots from Adamek.

        It really benefits Adamek to potshot and keep away in this fight, try to annoy areolla, get him to chase, and miss and tire

          I think Adamek takes it handily too.

          The gap in skill is too big. Arreola has size but it won't be enough
          .

            I actually think Adamek may have more skill (pure boxing skill) than say Vitali. Vitali has obvious advantages, like size, power, talent, etc which is why he ended Chris. (BTW, I'm not talking about Adamek fighting Vitali, keep your panties on folks)

            In this regard, I think he could make Chris look pretty bad. Chris has a 2" reach advantage, so he should try to make some use of that.

            Adamek TKOd 2 pretty good sized Cruiser Weights, and 1 HW, and beat another HW. It's not like he doesn't have any experience with bigger fighters.

              I have no idea why Adamek was the favorite in the first place.

                Not Adamek is at -105, and Arreola is a -125.

                interesting...
                say kball you should add a z to tomasz name. you see there is another boxer who's name is tomas adamek. no relation to tomasz here.

                  a lot of late money coming in on arreola.
                  i understand this is disconcerting to the sportsbook!

                  conspiritor nuts are saying the fix is in.
                  man...can you believe this sht
