    Prime Adamek arguably beats anybody at cruiser

    And he barely got past Chris Arreola, stood no chance vs Vitali and got stopped by Molina. Yet you have people on here downplaying these guys while saying guys like Usyk would beat the top dogs at heavy SMH.

    If it's so ridiculous and unbelievable why bother making a post about it? Briedes knocked out charr easier then povetkin did so none of this is out of the question.

      Charr was done after Povetkin, he was was violently knocked out. Fighters rarely rebound from those type of stoppages so him being stopped by Briedis is no surprise

        Adamek was a blown up LHW who frankly had no business at HW and was well past his best yet still give all those HWs work except Vitali who's frankly better than anyone at HW today.

        Gassiev, Dorticos, Usyk are all bigger and better than Adamek
        They're all 6'3-6'4 and probably walk around at 230 basically they're in-shape HWs.

        A past prime Huck arguably beat Povetkin. Breidis one-punch K.Od a current HW title holder.
        A shot U.S who was 40 and unable to still hang at CW decked the lineal HW champion and almost stopped him and beat several contenders.

        The CWs are basically more skilled HWs not carrying 50lbs too much fat. Usyk at the very least is competitive with any HW.
        **** if Szpilka can outbox Wilder for 10 rounds what's hard to believe about Usyk doing it?

          Adamek moved up to HW because there was nothing left at cruiser.

          Dorticos & Gassiev are great at cruiser because of their size/power, they don't do anything better than most punchers at heavy. You move them up to heavy and their advantages are gone. Btw Dorticos looked like crap vs Edison Miranda and this is a top 3 guy and arguably the hardest puncher at cruiser.


          Huck fought a fat Pedvetkin, that version is not the same as the PED fueled version. Fat Pedvetkin arguably lost to Eddie Chambers.

          Before when he was fat and had bad stamina issues:


          After when he was full of PED's, significantly leaner:



          Charr? Violently KO'd by Pedvetkin, lost to Duhapaus, let's be real he is NOT a top 15 heavy, he beat nobodies to win a title.

          Szpilka didn't out box Wilder either, Wilder dominated him which is clear as day in these highlights. Just count the amount of missed punches, Wilder looked like a defensive wizard in there:

            Adamek in his prime was a beast. Cant forget about his war with Paul Briggs. That was when i really started taking notes on the guy.

            Adamek was a good cruiser as well. Remember the cunningham bout?

            Adamek would have torn Kovalev a new *******.

              "glass chinned" Miranda taking Dorticos 10 rounds whilst landing on him throughout the fight, even more competitive than Kudryashov





              Can't forget about just how long RJJ lasted against a puncher like Lebedev either. RJJ would not last 5 rounds against any of the big punchers at LHW.
