    He's light-heavyweight.

      Both Adamek and Haye were more exciting at CW, difference being Haye's power carried up better and yeah, he would've stopped McBride last night.

      As was said earlier in the thread, Adamek can still give us an entertaining fight with smaller HWs like Haye and Chambers, though I think he loses to both.

        Adamek is fighting in the wrong weight division - thats the simple answer. He has no pop at HW and he's fighting a lot of bums.

          McBride is possibly the slowest fighter I've ever seen in the ring.

            The Arreola fight was good. And if he's going to fight 4 times a year and isn't babysitting a title, he can fight a few McBride's. He's just not helping his stock with fights like last night's.

                Haye would have stopped McBride violently inside 3 rounds tonight.
                When are Haye and Adamek fighting....I didn't know about this.

                  The reason he's so slow is because as a typical Irish Heavyweight, that si, that he's slooow, pleasant, can get nice and drunk and sing you a song in his local pub, and fall down from his own weight.

                  Like the Bronosaurus, it takes so long for a blow on the jaw to register in his brain that he forgets about it en route. All i can think of is that Adamek may have wanted to get the rounds in for more practice, but if he was "on the level" this is a bad sign for him.

                  Klitschko probably might have stretched out Mcbride nice and comfortably with a smile on his dreamy face, in about 3 rds or less, if he was taking him half seriously. i don't knowhow Mcbride, nice guy that he may be, ever came into the group which includes top fighers. There are probably a thousand just like him walking around in Dublin this minute.

                    Watch the video that TheGreatA posted in this thread.

                    = Fraudley KO's McBride. And I really like Adamek. He don't have a lot of power at heavyweight though.

                      Well, that fight certainly laid out the blue print for the vitali vs. adamek fight. Vitali stands in the center of the ring, with his hands completely down, pumping out jabs and rights as he continuously chases the running adamek who, after the solis fight, m wondering if he doesnt get knocked out of there early th first time he tries to jump in with a body shot. They better have security at that soccer arena...fans are gonna be mad as hell if Vitali ko's adamek in 1.
