Comments Thread For: Adamek, Chambers: Neither Satisfied With Performance

[nomadman]

That's exactly what I thought just before the final bell. It's next W in his record, but Adamek's performance left pretty average impression. His left hand dangled way too low IMHO. Uppercut didn't exist. It seems like the loss against Vit has taken something away from Adamek.

I thought Adamek looked the same as he normally did. He's a rather unimpressive heavyweight, and was pretty unimpressive skill-wise at cruiserweight, though his power at that weight allowed him to win the majority of his fights there.

He did seem to lack a bit of crispness, though whether that's due to his age/ring wear or his added weight I don't know.

It was a surprise at how awful BJ Flores was last night, for a guy who usually seems very bright and insightful.

I know Flores is a personal friend of Chambers and that explains his bias, but his commentary was very, very poor.

I'm not surprised that anyone listening to that fool would have though Chambers got robbed.

It was shocking how biased he was. He totally neglected Adamek's bodywork, praised Chambers for landing snappy right jabs as though they were power punches, gave Chambers rounds that were either contestable or edging towards Adamek, and offered little to nothing in the way of actual analysis of both fighters' styles/gameplans. Just bland stuff like, "nice right for Chambers, NICE right for Chambers, nice left for Adamek, nice right for..." and so on. Thanks dumbass, I do have eyes you know?

Good stuff here. And I should have known what was up when within the first minute of the fight BJ commented on how great Chambers was doing. I was shaking my head and I was asking myself, "What the f--k is he talking about the fight ain't even a minute old?" And I will say it again it was by far one of the worst announcing jobs I have ever had the displeasure to hear.

Flores was 2 biased 4 Eddie on tv but the worst was judge Rubenstein giving Adamek 11 rounds, who won but not even close to 11 rounds...NJSAC needs some action on this...

I had it for Chambers 116-112, he out-boxed Adamekc clearly all night.

Hometown decision.
