Vitali vs Adamek Weights

Klitschko 242.9, Adamek 216.1

And people gripe about the horse jockeys moving up two classes to fight someone.

Adamek was a Light HW now fighting a Super HW

Highlander!!!!!!!!!

Adamek is just too small. I like him as a fighter, but he's just too small and not explosive/powerful enough to be a true threat to Vitali. Vitali will fight tall, paw and keep Adamek at bay on the way to a typical Klit decision...

Vitali weighed in at his lowest weight since 1998. He took his preparation very seriously for this fight.

Ton of respect for Adamek. Moving up to HW and trying to take on the best. Too bad that Vitali will be too big and too good.

Agreed

Arreola & Grant roughed him up....Vitali should do much worse

Still, Ill be rooting for him

I'm holding out hope that Vitali's age shows up and the wheels fall off. Ok, it's desperate. But I want The Highlander Cheen to win.

Yeah... I'll be rooting for him too. You can't question the guy's skill and heart, he's just overmatched in this one IMO.

If Vitali was to fight a brawling fight, giving Adamek more chances, then I'd give Adamek more of a chance. But we all know that Vitali is going to fight safety first, use his height and reach, and not put himself too much in harms way....

Who knows, maybe his back goes out like Solis' knee lol

Yup, his funky boxer-puncher style is just a bad match up

He'll have to counter and move all night and hope for a MD/SD win

Thats his plan though, at least what he's been telling the media. Win with his speed

better hope so. Only time Vitali has lost was the horrific gash from Lennox's bombs and a very hurt shoulder against Byrd.

Vitali's style is really weird. A boxing writer a couple of years ago described it as a 6 ft 6 guy doing a rope a dope thing in the middle of the ring. You want to hit me and I'm going to lean way the hell back and out of the way. Very strange but he makes it work.

I can't beleive he's stayed healthy since his return. He was a walking injurry list which forced him to retire the first time. And he's almost 40 years old. Guys that big are prone to injurry because they're so big and gravity is pushing on them

yea, pretty effective

Since he's returned I dont think anybody has landed one significant punch on him

Everyone looks good hitting the mitts. Well, except MMA fighters. Jesus

Funniest shit I saw was Lesnar using a speed bag.

Never saw it, can only imagine how bad that was

11 rounds to 1

Meant Lesnar vs the speedbag

Adamek needs to do a Floyd Patterson jump in left hook on Vitali....
