Chris is quickly going to become a stepping stone for heavy weights

Pity that this fight wasn't on TV in Germany where I live. Kentikian and Jürgen Brähmer fights were on TV last evening (ZDF), and in the morning there was a recording of Froch-Kessler (mdr). I am looking forwards to see Arreola-Adamek on YouTube in few days. Both guys are great. That's sort of fights everyone wants to see - two top-rated guys boxing each other in a hard battle

Don't be disrespectful to Arreola. Chris is an awesome puncher and he has a heart of a boxer. He deserves his position in HW Top 10! I can wish him nothing but all the best. Arreola has to improve his technic, that's very true. So, he knows what to work on, I hope. He lost a MD to one of the best boxers - this is no shame. A shame is to fight opponents that Boytsov and Povetkin are fighting.

Guess I have to disagree, Compubox numbers just don't lie. And Adamek, frankly, didn't even look like he was running in this fight (something I thought he would look like he was doing). Thus giving Chris rounds for pushing the action.

I scored 117-111. The numbers just weren't close, and Chris got jacked up, he was clearly the more bruised fighter, meaning Adamek threw the more effective punches.

I just looked at my scorecard. I miscounted. I scored the fight 116-114 for Adamek. Also, I took the liberty of scoring rounds even. If I gave Adamek the two round I scored even, I would have it 116-112. We really are not that far apart.

Compubox numbers can be misleading. I'm sure you know that.

The fact that this was on HBO tells me it will not make it to You Tube for sometime. As far as respecting Arreola he does deserve any respect and he needs to be dropped from the top ten. Because not only is he fat and out shape he really is not that good of a fighter.

Arreola hurt his hand and Adamek was hugging too much. It was a good fight but a draw or a split decision for Arreola would have been better. East Europeans against Latinos are becoming great fights because they deliver more action and heart. African-Americans are boring as hell.
