    Are you nuts? Take that left-wing agenda bull**** someplace else. We're trying to run a business here.

      I also disagree about Adamek not having power. He's got serious power.
      From what I've seen, Adamek can not handle Haye's lateral movement and speed. He got shut down by Banks for the first half of the fight, just from a little moving and counter punching. I feel Haye can finish the job, but it'd be a good fight along the way though.

      I never said he doesn't have power, he has good power. It showed on Arreola's face and tonight against Vinny. That Grant fight pissed me off though, since I bet on the under. The man got knocked out cold by Dominick "I take tranquilizers before fights" Guinn, but Adamek could barely make him react.

          There's gotta be a niche in the boxing business for a good honest accountant. There just has to be....

          I want to help, and make some $$$, from the future Iran Barkleys, Tommy Hearns, Evander Holyfields, et al of the boxing world...

            Budget was passed the other day. Cuts on social welfare, cuts on pensions for the blind, the disabled, the vulnerable, child benefits, etc.

            Added property tax, property stamp duty increase, etc.

            After some pressure, government will debate the EU-IMF bailout option with the opposition parties...

            We're still being royally ****ed.

              That's what Don King said. Now look at him. He was the Anakin Skywalker of the boxing world.

                I didn't direct the power thing at you, but at others in the thread.

                Banks is somewhat underrated though, plus that was back before Adamek was really settled at the weight. I like his footwork a lot and his in n out style. Plus he's got pretty fast hands.

                I could see him catching Haye when Haye jumps in with something.

                  Banks movement didn't have much to do with anything imo. It was cuz Banks was fighting off his back foot, leaning back with his right hand ****ed. Adamek was just having trouble finding countering oppertunities as Banks was making him lead. Then he started working his body.........Plus Tomasz is a much improved fighter even from his CW days. Haye's handspeed will be his biggest problem but it's equal oppertunity imo given Tomasz's counterpunching and Haye's horrendous defensive flaws.

                    Good comparison. The bottom line is, Don King promoted a lot of great fights in his lifetime and has made mega millions doing so. I'd turn over to dark side if it meant becoming super wealthly...

                      Wooooowwww........

                      All that happened since the last Tarpley show??? That's ****ed up man. Hopefully this just galvanizes people more and they redouble their efforts. I think eventually it'll get so bad that they'll have to anyway.


                      Sorry to hear that mate.

                      Cowen and Lenihan= agents of the IMF and World bank and traitors to Ireland.

                      They should be tarred and feathered in the town square.
