Comments Thread For: Adam Kownacki: It Wasn't My Night, I'm Just Upset With Myself

[Roberto Vasquez]

A poor choice of opponents I thought when they made the fight. Kownacki’s style is to walk through fire continually throwing punches. Kownacki has a good chin, good enough to take a pretty good shot from most fighters but Helenius, despite his defensive shortcomings has much better than average power.

Seems like a nice kid, I wish he could have gotten a little further and made some serious money before the inevitable happened.

But he had to fight someone decent who can punch sometime. Better it was Helenius than someone better. Kownacki can actually learn form this.

Exposed!!!!!

Well its not suprising considering you use your face as your defence,throw loads of punches which exposes your defence and is/are too overly reliant on your chin. Lucky it wasnt wilder or someone like whyts in there else it would have been even more brutal

Instead of losing (or not!) to AJ for $7M he opted to lose against Hilarius for peanuts.

Thanks, Al.

Yep. Everything becomes obvious AFTER the fact!

What "simple Bet for peanuts @ The Boxing Voice" are you talking about?!

Nah, Kownacki looked like he always looks. Roadwork isn’t going to improve his defense, chin or power. Going 12 rounds isn’t Kownacki’s issue at all, he’ll outpace most anyone you put in the ring with him.

I was at his fight against Szpilka in 2017. He weighed 242. He was never an adonis but check out how he looked a few years ago. Video below:

Didn’t see this coming. Truth is that below the one clear class of the division Fury, all the rest can lose to anyone at any time. Wilder, Joshua, Ruiz - all of em. Too many flaws

Exactly. Kownacki was a big favorite for a reason. Should he have taken the A.J fight? In hindsight, of course but that is not how life works. How many actors turned down roles that they later regretted after the movie was a success? Tom Selleck was offered the role of Indiana Jones before Harrison Ford. Happens all the time!

Kownacki was planned like next Ortiz ( unbeaten PBC hype job) for Wilder, if Wilder beat Fury ( which he didn`t and won`).

Helenius was there to get beating and make Kownacki looking good.

Sorry, fans, Kownacki is no world beater and he will never be. Struggled with Martin, struggled with past prime Arreola and now got stopped by past prime Helenius? It is not just bad night, it is about levels. Kownacki is the same level as Martin, Washington and others.
