    Hopkins beats Adamek so easily it´s not even funny and then he´ll seriously consider to challenge the giant for the WBA heavyweight title. Yes I think Valuev will beat Haye.

    Because the Offer Hopkins Made INSINUATES that HE'S the Draw, when in Actuality, Adamek would Sell MORE Tickets in Atlantic City than BHop Would....

    maybe those cheap 25 dollar tickets for those cheap polish americans.....but Hops would bring in the celebs, high rollers, and he even would generate more PPV then adamek....seriously..no one knows who the hell adamek is?

    No he hasn't. Hopkins is a sub five hundred fighter against good fighters. The clock with no hands is nothing but HBO bullshit. The guy doesn't fight and hasn't for years. I like Kelly Pavlik but he is not very good and I said this before the fight when the board fell in love with him. It was only Massacure and I who said we liked the kid but he isn't good. Slopkins throws 5 punches a round and does everything he can not to fight. Big fucking deal.


    He will whoop Adameck and the myth of Hopkins will continue. Adamek is a great tv fighter, tough and utterly skilless. He is made for HOPKINS or anyone who can box a little bit. This is an easy fight for Bhop. Easy.

    He hasn't defied anything other than fighting vastly smaller men and their unnatural weight and losing to talented fighters like Calzaghe who basically made him attempt to quit twice.

    I was thinking of Adamek-Jirov for Mythical Matchups.

    Maybe it doesn't have to be a Mythical Matchup...Jirov is making a comeback.

    September 17th, at cruiserweight.

    Dan Rafael reports Hopkins-Adamek have agreed to roughly a 60-40 split, but Hopkins won't sign without the purse being raised by HBO, but that HBO can't do that until it gets it's budget for next year.

    There's also been talk between Adamek's camp with Golota's in case the Hopkins fight doens't come off, as well as with Cunningham for a potential rematch next year.
