Yes Sir I watched the fight and I didn't see any point where Adamek nearly got knocked out twice. In fact I don't recall him ever being knocked down.Originally posted by joseph5620Did you even see the fight or are you just reading the scores from box rec? Adamek nearly got KO'd twice and he did not look good against a hand picked opponent. And Grant is about as shot as you can get. Either way, Thompson is a much tougher fight than Grant at this stage.
Those are pretty wide margins to say he struggled with Grant. Grant caught him with a couple of good shots and he's a big guy who can punch. It's all part of the sport.
Arreola is a tougher fight than Grant and Adamek beat him as well.Comment

You must have had selective vision because Ademak got hurt in the sixth, was nearly out in the 12th. That's not even debatable. Ademak clearly won the decision but he was badly hurt, and cut. Those are problems and red flags against a shot opponent no matter how you spin it. It also shows how little chance he has against Wladimir Klitschko. And lets not pretend that Ademak dominated Arreola. It was very close.Last edited by joseph5620; 02-10-2011, 01:01 PM.Comment

I'm trying to spin anything, you're saying he struggled and yet he won almost every round. OK he got hurt, I'm not debating that. It happens, it's boxing. He still won a landslide unanimous decision and he DID beat Arreola, I don't care how close it was, he won the fight. I don't know how not even hitting the canvas is considered "almost being knocked out". You can't convince me that is the case.[B]

Thompson is a good fighter - Haye is better.
Tony admitted it was balls and gave Haye big praise, Even if Haye and Thompson both lied - its only sparring plus Hayes chin sucks so its not like a huge shock. Didnt happen thoComment

He got hit with 1 solid shot in the sixth and was nowhere near out in the 12, Grant just rushed him so Adamek he got on his bike, please show me where he was seriously hurt. It was pretty much a total schooling and Adamek/Arreola was competitive but not what I would call a close fight that could have gone Arreola's way.[B]

I don't know how getting badly hurt and cut is "winning with no problems."I'm trying to spin anything, you're saying he struggled and yet he won almost every round.

Look at it for yourself. But I wouldn't expect you to see any different with your love for Eastern European fighters. And Ademak-Arreola was very close if you know how to score a fight without bias or at least have common sense..That would leave you out.He got hit with 1 solid shot in the sixth and was nowhere near out in the 12, Grant just rushed him so Adamek he got on his bike, please show me where he was seriously hurt.
