    Does Chambers beat Adamek stylistically?

    A thread before I go to bed for NSB.
    Adamek is the favorite going into this, but I think stylistically chambers wins even though he's the underdog.
    Thoughts?

    If it's the Chambers that beat Dimitrenko, Peter and Brock then he beats Adamek convincingly on points. Depends on how badly the layoff (and the KO) have affected him really. His game relies on timing and sharpness, two things which can deteriorate if you don't fight regularly.

      Yea, that's why I'm a little worried. That KO from Wlad and he hasn't been that active. His last fight was more than a year ago against Rossy and he knocked him out the first time they fought.
      Also, does anybody know how many rounds this will be?

        Toss up of chambers can land good solid counters and keep adamek missing then he takes it but if the lay off and ko takes to much from him it can be tough

        Also we have to look at the fight adamek just had vs vitali that could have taken what's left outta him also but if he pressures chambers and finds a way to keep a good jab in his face an off set his timing all night then he'll take it

        Either way it's a toss up to me

          They should make a separate weight class for these smaller HWs. The reason I say this is there are some good competitive fights at this weight, yet they are forced up to face guys much bigger to win abelt.

          Should there be Super CW division? Or could we just shift everyone 230+ pounds up to Super HW?

            Adamek looked more or less the same against Aguilera as he always does. Chambers is more of the question mark for me. Fight could go like the Povetkin fight or the Brock fight with Chambers either getting outworked or Adamek finding his punches hitting gloves and air and getting soundly outboxed.

              Those "smaller heavyweights" both have about ten to fifteen pounds on Louis and about thirty pounds on Marciano and Dempsey. If it was good enough for them...

                I didn't see that fight but he's also not as good as chambers either so we can't really use that as measurement

                    I know, but the things which typify Adamek were still there, the aggression, the combination punching and high output. In other words, it didn't look like the loss to Vittles adversely affected him in that respect.
