If Adamek fought Haye, who would win?

[mathed]

adamek is awesome but too small for HW, I take Haye via ko in 9th

[Earl-Hickey]

This poll ASTOUNDS me.

I think its too close to call, it all depends who imposes whos style on the other.

This could be an epic trilogy.

But unless he's given a clear opportunity such as an immediate post-knockdown period, Haye doesn't really do onslaughts. He just hangs back (too tentatively sometimes) and waits for the opening to present itself.

I imagine Adamek pumping away with the jab for the the first few rounds and keeping Haye on the back foot, until eventually the latter would feel confident enough to unleash a 1-2 or a wide single hook. Most likely it would land, because Adamek's head isn't hard to miss, but whether he'd become wise to it and not allow a repeat attack remains the unknown factor... Or if his chin really is solid enough to take it just the once or many times over.

I actually agree with this, thats why I want Roach to train Haye, because there are times in Haye fights where your like "just hit him dave" but he waits, and waits..........

a bit more agression wouldn't go amiss, trust me there is no-one in the division who wants an agressive haye charging them.

This fight would have been even more awesome at cruiserweight... But right now, at heavyweight, I think Haye wins by KO/TKO, he's too fast for Adamek and I see him maybe sending Adamek down (Adamek has an average chin), but I don't know man. I also don't think that Adamek has the power to truly hurt Haye, but who knows, Haye's chin has been pretty good lately, but you never know in a HW fight. It would be a really good fight.

Would have loved to see this fight at CW.

It's a sort of Mayweather-ish curse that tends to sully some of his fights (although obviously not too many, since he KOs them most of the time), but such patience never usually hurts anyone if they have the power to boot - Abraham seems to make it work, but Clottey doesn't because he's not a KO artist. Haye doesn't need to be patient because he has the tools to end it at will. I gave him the benefit of the doubt for Abdoul, because he sorely needed a 12-rounder under his belt.

During the Barrett fight I was indeed shouting "Just hit 'im, David!" and didn't like his gunshy approach to those first few rounds. Too much feeling out and looking for an opening, which is more suited to Wlad's technical style. With his power, he needs to be going for it straight away like against Ruiz - there's so much speed and 'crack' in his 1-2 that I'm certain he can floor anyone if he lands even half-clean.

... Including the VitMan, who's chin has been begging for a test since Sanders.

Haye has looked like **** at HW against old shot fighters.

Adamek is clearly the superior fighter, he would shatter Haye's glass chin.

You can't elaborate and articulate a more detailed answer than that? How typical of a robotic, moronic, single-minded drone.

It smacks of subjective and biased thinking, rather than taking a step back and looking at both fighters objectively. I'm officially the only one who's bothered to do the latter in this thread, and I find it laughable that so many people voted but couldn't be arsed to type up a detailed explanation regarding their vote.

So many Klitschko drones are passionate about their Haye-tred and trying to prove to everyone as to how dreadful he is, but are unable to stand their ground and explain why and how Adamek beats him. How disappointing. I was really looking forward to another typing workout...
