    McBride is tall, it will be good practice for Adamek,and McBride and Chisora are both just stay busy fights to keep loose and both aare acceptable

      I gave Adamek a pass for the Maddalone fight because it was his forth fight in 2010 and he had fought, and beat, several decent opponents. But, this sucks, Kevin McBride is a moving punching bag; actually "moving" might be a stretch.

      This fight is a total mismatch and it does nothing in the way of preparation for a Klitschko fight. I'll watch this fight, but I don't approve of it..

McBride stands at 6'6 and viewed by Adamek's camp a suitable opponent before his scheduled fight with WBO/IBO/IBF champion Wladimir Klitschko in September.

        But will he ?

          Sorry but you can't be critical of the Harrision fight if ur gonna let this McBride fight be considered acceptable. I understand the tune-up fight but just not with McBride that's a joke is he even in the top 50 HW at da moment I doubt it. I am sure they could find a better opponent which Adamak could still beat relatively easily.

            He will probably do another tune up before sept he will be fresh for the klitch bros but he wont have a chance it will be a good fight

I love hay fans logic in these situation. Critcizing people saying, "Adamek made a safe pick to prepare and make sure he gets the Wlad fight" by saying "why would Wlad risk the Haye fight with Chisora...." Adamek's fighting right? He's not just sitting at home waiting? So why do you expect Wlad to do that? Boxers need to box more...only Haye fans will argue that they should box less.

              Here is the Wlad hater logic right here, let me break it down for you:

              You need more than 9 weeks between fights. If you don't have 9 weeks theres no way you can be properly trained

              Wlad sucks he lost to Ross Purrity.......

              Hmm, Purrity was Wlad's 12th fight in 12 months and coming off of 3 weeks rest? So which is it, was Wlad not properly prepped for Purrity, a bit worn down, needed about 7 more weeks to rest and prepare? Or can fighters actually fight on less than 9 weeks?
              so when does your fight against Jab happen ? I believe it's long overdue

                Both Harrison and McBride are old shot fighters who never were very good in their prime (although McBride had a win over past-it Tyson).

                Haye's Harrison fight was a world title fight.

                But Adamek has no world title.

                This is just a stay-busy fight for Adamek while he's preparing for a world title fight against one of two best heavyweights in the world, both of whom Haye has repeatedly ducked.

                  Wow you really try spin anything don't you. Firstly Harrision had just won the Eurpoean title in his best ever fight as HW in a 12 round KO how is that being shot. Secondly if you think it is much worse then some of K2 defences you must be blinded by staring at Wlad's nut sack through most of his fights. Thompson isn't much better than Harrision only difference is Wlad is scared to finish a fight early in case that glass in his jaw shatters.

                  Ibragimov worst fight ever in MSG try find a worse one you will struggle. VK against Johnson and Briggs were jokes as well. I bet Wlad wouldn't have the confidence to bet on what round he could finish a fight in either.

                  Adamak can have a tune-up but against such poor opposition I don't really see the point he might as well just have a longer training camp.

                    Wlad chose to fight Chisora fam instead of fighting Haye

                    geez they are lining up some tomato cans for Adamek might as well through him in there with McCall while they're at it

                      And as you probably already have noticed, I'm in love with David Haye, even if he is a ducker and a fraud. :*******:
                      Why was the crowd booing during the second round of Haye vs. Harrison?

                      Was Haye not trying to KO the old tomato can until round 3 (because he bet on that round) fair to the UK fans who bought the PPV?
