    Do you consider Adamek and Haye both blown-up Cruiserweights?

    I think they are personally.

    Yes, but both Klitschkos deserve credit if they beat both

    Adamek for sure, but not Haye. I think he's grown into the division. He has the power to KO everyone there, and the speed. He's also very built at HW.

      No. They are in shape and look like how HW's are supposed to look like. We got so use to Peter, Arreola, Thompson, Chambers that we think that's how HW's look like.

      Adamek and Haye are in very good shape and are proper Heavyweights imo.

        Adamek to me looks very unnatural at heavyweight.His head is so small for how big his body is.

          Adamek in lower weight classes had power, Arreola definitely has a chin but I don't think anything Adamek landed on Arreola hurt him. While, Arreola said Vitali hits very hard. I don't think he said the same about Adamek!

            Adamek slightly blown up, Haye absolutely not. Haye is an average sized Heavy.

              I think the times that Adamek hit Arreola and Arreola told himto keep coming, that's a sign that a punch did catch the fighter's attention. Adamek was more on the run than trying to hit and trade with Arreola but when did hit him, he got Arreola's attention.

                Arreola was literally walking through his punches. If he did that with any decent powered HW, he would have gotten knocked out eventually. He wanted Adamek to keep them coming so he could draw him into a war and knock him out.

                  They aren't blown up Cruiserweights, but personally I think both were more effective at Cruiser than they are at Heavyweight.

                  Moreso Adamek cause he's a little smaller, doesn't have the one punch KO power Haye has and relies on his chin more than Haye does (due to lesser defence from Adamek)

                    hmm maybe.. def Adamek is imo his power did not effect Arreola at all even when he was landing 2-3 shots flush.

                    Compared to the Klits they are tiny
