Comments Thread For: Adamek-McBride Finalized: Tomasz Says He'll Be Ready

[Heavy Bag]

Another easy tune up fight for Adamek? How many more of these is he going to have?

[BostonGuy]

At least Adamek's not fighting Roy Jones Jr.....

[Dave Rado]

Why is this the issue when this thread is about Adamek fighting the might Mcbride?

Haven't you been following the thread? Because some idiots have been claiming it's as bad as (or in some cases they're claiming it's even worse than) Haye fighting Fraudley in preference to fighting a Klitschko - which, given that Adamek has already signed contracts to fight one of the Klitschkos in September, is such a ridiculous claim it beggars belief that any poster would be ****** enough to make it.

When did you stop following boxing? Obviously several months ago. Adamek has already signed contracts to fight one of the Klitschkos in September.

[Dave Rado]

Why would he take a fight with risk when a huge payday and a fight with the recognized best hw was already signed?

Those fighters are not serious risks, but they'd be fairly meaningful preparation, and would help him to some extent to prepare for the Klitschko fight; whereas this fight is completely pointless. He'd be better off just sparring with decent sparring partners than taking this fight.

But at least he's signed to fight one of the Klitschkos already, so the idiots trying to make out that his behaviour is in any way comparable to Haye's are mind-bogglingly ignorant.

Nevertheless, it's a joke fight, and he should have done better.

adamek is nothing more than a joke and a clownish figure degrading himself and Poland. How dumb is Tomasz?? could Tomasz be the dumberst man on earth?

[Tiozzo]

gtfoh with that ,yea and fighting a rahman ,toney,tua,tarver type of opponent will REALLY HELP plus add the fact that him wanting this upcoming fight potenitally to be in poland. its called a tune up.get real .

I guess I shouldn't GTFOH after all

maybe your internet thug azz should though since you can't keep it civil

I gave Adamek a pass for fighting Maddalone because, he had fought three decent opponents in a relativley short time prior to that fight. However, a fight against Kevin McBride is unexcuseable. McBride is a tomato can, a tall tomato can at that. Fighting him does not in anyway prepare Adamek for one of the K Bros, as he purports. A better choice of opponent would have been Sergey Liakhovich, Nicolai Firtha, Hasim Rahman, or even Fres Quendo..

There's no "potentially" about it, the contract is already signed for the fight in Poland in September.

But beating up a punching bag is not useful preparation for fighting a fighter with the skills of either Klitschko. He'd be better off sparring than taking a fight with someone as bad as McBride - it's a completely pointless fight.

Tua is shot, so is Toney, so those are bad examples. Tarver is not a real Heavyweight and is also fairly shot. Someone like Tony Thompson would be far better preparation than McBride, though.

why is he fighing mcbride

Horrific and totally pointless fight.

Worse than Haye-Fraudley and that's saying something.

whatever! audley is 10 times better then mcbride....he should have fought nicolai firtha who was the other choice...firtha is tougher & would go rounds & really would have been no threat to adamek...

You need to step up your reading comprehension rado.I wasn't talking about the SEPT date with klit, I was referring to the fight BEFORE the klit one.hopefully u can comprehend it that way as I made it simple enough for you to understand.as far as Thompson, you need to go to the fantasy fight lounge with that, it's called a TUNE UP, Tony is top 10 if not at least on the brink of top 10 in the HW division.

OK, I understand Adamek doesn't want to jeopardise a fight with one of the Klits in September, but McBride? Seriously? Hell, even someone like Austin or Whittacker would have been preferable to this goof. He poses almost zero threat to Adamek whatsoever, which begs the question, what the hell's the point in fighting him? To stay active? Activity is useless if it's against such a low level fighter like this. In fact I'd wager Adamek gets more activity in an average sparring session against a hell of a lot better quality opponent. This farce of a fight is nothing but a big waste of time and energy. God, what the hell happened to Adamek's balls?

Tune up for what exactly? A Klit? Hardy har har. McBride might be borderline acceptable for preparation with a fight with Dimitrenko or Thompson but even that's pushing it.
