Vitali Klitschko Vs. Tomasz Adamek Fight Prediction!!

It’s late. I am tired. Blame Hurricane Irene. Blame fantasy football mania.

For all of the reasons stated above, I’ll let the simple breakdown indicate who I am favoring in the upcoming heavyweight title fight between Vitali Klitschko (42-2, 39 KO’s) and Tomasz Adamek (44-1, 28 KO’s).

  1. With the fight taking place in Wroclaw, Poland, it’s safe to say that Adamek will have the crowd on his side. Advantage Adamek.
  2. The plodding Adamek has faster hands than the seemingly more plodding Klitschko. Slight advantage Adamek.
  3. Klitschko has shown himself to control the ring behind his lengthy jab and straight right hand, no matter whom he’s fought. Advantage Klitschko.
  4. Both fighters have fought top-notch competition-Adamek at light heavyweight and cruiserweight, and Klitschko at heavyweight. Even.
  5. Adamek is a boxer-puncher while Klitschko is a puncher who knows how to box. Advantage Klitschko.
  6. Both fighters are very well-conditioned but Adamek tends to be more active and busy in his fights. Slight advantage Adamek.
  7. Klitschko has never been dropped in his long career. Adamek has. Advantage Klitschko.
  8. Neither man has happy feet, so I call this category a "push." Even.
  9. Klitschko is bigger, stronger and taller than most men he fights. Add Adamek to that list. Advantage Klitschko.
  10. Klitschko uses his height and reach to stymie an opponent’s offense better than most fighters today. Adamek will see that in a couple of weeks. Advantage Klitschko.

Look for Vitali to continue the reign of the "Brothers Klitschko," for better (for his legacy) and for worse (for fans seeking heavyweight excitement) via a late TKO.

    Quite sure we’ll get a better fight than David Haye provided.
    Adamek will need to get in and out with out picking up damage,and over the 12rds it will be a hard task, solis managed to land a few right hands for the short time he was around and i expect Adamek to do the same.
    In the end Klitschko will prove to much, but may not be able to put him away.
    Klitschko on points.

    Solid analysis but I expect a Klitschko TKO victory.

    @jb Interesting perspective jb but I respectfully disagree based on the partisanship that I have seen displayed for many of Mayweather’s opponents (i.e. Mexican ones) when fighting in Vegas. His fights with Castillo come to mind in particular.
