The Official Maddalone vs Adamek Thread

[FloydTBE]

undercard fights thus far have been damn awful

[MetalVomit]

Maddalone's gonna get butchered.

This Guzman character blew him a kiss after getting nailed.

I kinda like this scrappy journeyman with some machismo.

He he he.

TBH, Adamek hasn't entirely impressed me as a hw contender. Yeah, he fights frequently but he hasn't shown he has the confidence to follow up with his combinations and firepower after he has his opponent hurt. Had he pressed the fight harder against Arreola he surely would have scored the ko but let off the gas.

Against Maddalone, hopefully, he's able to put some nice punches together and get the much needed KO. Even though Vinny is eons below being an elite fighter, or contener for that matter, Adamek needs the confidence of a good performance if he's to fight Haye, Klitschko Bros, Boytsov,,..etc...

he had a damn good win vs arreola and that's about it. why?

cuz he's not a ***n heavyweight!!!!!!!!

he's a damn good fighter though

Ali's handspeed is slightly above average at best. Why do people talk as if it's something special? Not impressed with him tbh.

He def had the amateur credentials. Getting that far is REALLY hard to do. Harder than most people really understand.

As soon as he turned pro Dibella signed him. And all of a sudden he got a lot bigger, and than he got slower and his skills diminished because he was a hand speed guy, and Lou dropped him.

I don't think he will be anything special. He's just not physically imposing enough for high level guys.

He's crafty, he's got solid defense, and ring genership but he lacks size as you implied. I hope he impresses tonight...

cant believe this fight is still going on

Adamek vs Povetkin

That fight could be amazing and could probably do big numbers. Those perogi eating eastern euros all hate each other.

You hear that guy shouting "wheres the spring in those goddam legs?"

Thats what its about. Man needs to look at his movement and speed. He's very ragged.
