Comments Thread For: Adamek Passes on Pulev: Makes No Financial Sense

[ddangerous]

Kubrat Pulev is the best heavyweight in the world not named Klitschko.

And he had a better year last year than either Klitschko did.

He beat Travis Walker (who knocked Adamek down and had him in trouble), Alexander Dimitrenko, and Alex Ustinov, all big and above average opponents.

Adamek has zero chance vs Pulev and obviously he knows it.

Excellent post.

Yep, makes no sense to fight a real contender when there's money to be made in a Kevin McBride or Vinny Maddalone rematch.

Interesting.. If he beat Pulev and then faced Wlad, wouldn't he receive the biggest payday in his career?

Best argument of the day.

Looks like it will be Pulev vs. Jennings.

This would be a really good match up and interesting fight

The writing on the wall for him and he knows it.

It's obvious the most money comes out of a Klit bout, so if he truly believed he could beat Pulev he'd take the opportunity and set himself up for a windfall in the next bout. A loss to Pulev would be costly for him and he's not prepared to risk it, it would seem.

Just what the IBF gets, they give this dude back to back questionable decisions, and he renigs on them - Cunningham would have fought Pulev for the sake of the sweet science. Adamek's days are numbered, and he is slow as molassis now with the added weight. IBF looks real stupid now..

I have always supported Adamek and with that said this is is very disappointing news.

Adamek's career is coming to a close and it doesn't really make sense to enter a fight you'll more than likely lose and what for, a elimanator to face Wlad where he stands even less of a chance , he can draw crowds in Poland or Jersey and take more winnable fights.

Pulev/Jennings is more appealing
