Since Enzo signed a new 3 year deal with FW, I doubt these big fights will come his way, which is a shame as I think he would spark Ademek out

[Autobarn]

I think Adamek's shown a heck of a lot since moving up to cruiser. Beats Bell, Cunningham, Banks. He has the seasoning and the skills to do Enzo.

Enzo, with his safe promoter, hasn't shown that much in a career at cruiser. Would we ever see him take 3 fights like that in quick succession?

Let's see. Afolobi is a decent place to start, then Ramirez. Props to Enzo if he wants to step up though.

You ever think ppl will be calling out Enzo, like they're calling out Adamek?

There's loads of fights that Adamek would take before fighting Enzo. Enzo needs some good wins and to get known by the US audience. They don't think he's any good, which isn't true.

[ALI]

Adamek would likely KO Enzo. But we will never know for several reasons. If Enzo really wanted to fight the BIG names he'd have signed elsewhere.

Agreed

for several reasons we don't know what we need to know about fighters like Enzo.

Adamek was given a lesson by Dawson so wouldn't be suprising if Enzo wins.

Bell only got to title level with gift decisions and was inactive and Cunningham isn't a puncher.

3 yr deal.

i'm genuinely surprised at this.

i thought joe calzaghe would snap him up.

adamek would beat enzo.

he'd take his best punches and outbox him from range.

under rated skills to go with his toughness adamek.

in what way does dawson fight like enzo.

no resemblance whatsoever.

[youngrell]

Enzo is a very good boxer and I would pick him to outbox anyone at Cruiser, it's just whether or not he can finish the fight on his feet.

I predict any loss Enzo has during his career will always be by stoppage.

[steve689]

I just cannot see any possible way that Enzo beats Adamek to be honest apart from maybe a big punch KO.

Enzo had the option to go with the Calzaghe's but decided to stick with FW, his nephew has also signed for FW

Max, delve a bit deeper.

Bell knocked out Mormeck, Kelvin Davis, Arthur Williams, Derek Harmon, Ezra Sellers, Sebastian Rothmann - you gimp! If he was lucky v Dale Brown, then he may have been unlucky in the Mormeck rematch where they shortened the rounds to make JMM survive.

Adamek boxed his ears off, made him quit, in a masterclass.

Cunningham's a fine boxer, kind of like an orthodox Dawson with muscles. No, he may not be a puncher but he has impressive speed - hence him being able to tag Adamek more than most.

Adamek beats him in a superb fight.

Adamek lost a fight to Dawson. Bad style, southpaw, Adamek weight drained as well - & coming off 3 wars. By heck, if ppl like Calzaghe made tough defence after tough defence, they'd have a good 2 or 3 defeats each by now.

Neither of your boys Macca or even Calzaghe, have gone from tough foe to tough foe i.e. 175-pounds, WBC title Briggs, Ulrich, Briggs, Dawson. 200-pounds, IBF title Bell (elim), Cunningham, Banks.

Macca has some hard fights to get through - Afolabi, Ramirez, etc. If he gets by these fighters, I still don't think Tomasz Adamek is going to be looking over his shoulder.

Dawson is a boxer/mover with super fast hands, he's Adameks worst nightmare. That fight proved that Adamek is likely to loose to slicksters, hence the reason Hopkins fancies his chances against Adamek. Personally, i'd take Hopkins by wide UD. Cunningham was actually outboxing Adamek IMO and had it not been for the knock downs, Cunningham would have been a good winner on my card. Enzo's style is nothing like any of those names, his way of fighting would suit Adamek.

I'm an Adamek fan, he's as tough as they come and he's always laying it on the line. He'd spark Enzo out, i'd be quite confident of that. I'd also take Dawson, Cunningham and probably Bell also to beat Enzo. Hope he gets his chance against those names though, he's definately good enough to be in the ring with them, just dont think he'll come out with the victory.
