    Why dont people have Tomas Adamek in their top 10 lists?

    I mean, Ill be honest: hes not that special. But he sure as hell has accomplished a lot more than most others that people thing deserve to be on the p4p lists.

    Titleholder at 175lbs.
    Best fighter at Cruiserweight for a while
    Now top 5 at Heavyweight.

    And hes been undefeated for a long time now. I think he should be rated higher than guys like Donaire, who hasnt fought any top fighters in years, or someone like Williams, who has had patchy performances and has never been undisputedly the best guy in the division

    He without a doubt deserves to be up on the top 10 P4P list over Donaire who has 1 notable win in 25 fights over what I perceive as a highly overrated fighter.

      He's top 15, but his heavyweight wins havent done much for him simply because there are no decent heavys other than the klitschkos.

          He needs to face the Klits of this world and not Vinnie Maddalone and Chris Arreola.

          Guys who qualify as Klit-scraps.

            hes a former Light heavyweight, and top 5 at HW, despite the division being crap.
            I dont understand how people simple dismiss his Cruiserweight record too. that matters.

            He has a win over Arreola, who isnt that great either but Arreola is still the best opponent Vitali has faced for a year or two now.

            Wladimir you could have over him, but I dont see how you could have Vitali above him. who has Vitali beaten these last few years to make him better than Adamek? They both share wins over Arreola, and Adamek has accomplishments at two other weight classes as well.

            I actually have him #4 myself.

                He should fight Chagaev, not Maddalone.

                  He's in my top ten, my first Adamek fight was against Briggs on the Brewster undercard. I've been a huge fan ever since. I loved his jab and his ability to throw combinations so fluidly.

                    I don't know man, he's kinda been getting tossed around the ring like a rag doll against these heavyweights, and yet he's still winning somehow. If the HW division was any better I don't think he could have been successful.

                    That's why I leave him out. But if he beats a solid heavyweight contender I think there is no choice but to put him somewhere on the top 10.

                    It is impressive though any way you look at it.
