Huge upset. If I am Ishida, I will find an American trainer fast! Someone like Roach, Bloodworth or Steward. I know it was the first round, but he looked balanced and quick with his punches. I hope he capitalizes on this win. Congrats to Ishida.

Additionaly, most of the crowd at the MGM Grand applauded Ishida. This tells me that there were maybe 5 DWFs in a sea of 7000. That is something to think about and that the castesystem is being exposed.

Last week I mentioned that a fighter didn't look fit. Yeserday, McBride proves my point. He said, "maybe if I lost an additional 20 lbs I might have caught Tomasz." Bottom line; there is a definite correlation between looking fit and WINNING. No metro sexual BS involved.

Good win for Tomasz even though this was just a keep busy fight. We all knew Adamek would win this fight. McBride is a big guy with little boxing skills. He has some power but he's just too slow to compete with fighters like Adamek.

Adamek's best chance is to fight Vitali at this point. Vitali's age is catching up to him and I'd give Adamek a slight chance. No use in fighting Wladimir.

Mike needs a KO to win. The ref in the fight is the worst I have seen this year. Mike had Robert hurt by going to the body in 8th. The ref inexplically docked Mike a point for clearly legal body shots. 12 is up.


That's Randy Neumann, the worst referee in boxing. They're still giving him the big fights and he'll always go the extra mile for them to try and see that whoever the house favorite is gets all the advantages, and he's obvious about it. Of course he's not the only one doing that. Neumann owns a financial company in New Jersey. He launders money for the boxing mobsters and crooked NJ politicians.

There is an old axiom that sex ruins legs. Maybe jail sex ruins chins....

Before he went to jail for illegal possession of weapons Kirkland was viewed as iron chinned. In his last two fights he was badly wobbled and bounced around like a basketball.

Donnell Holmes 33-2-2 (29) and Nagy Aguilera 17-6 (12) are the frontrunners to face Adamek on March 24.

Those guys are the right level of opponent for Adamek right now. Coming off his brutal beating from Vitali, he needs to rebuild his confidence.

I'm looking forward to seeing Tomasz Adamek back in action against Nagy Aguilera on Saturday.

Weights: Tomasz Adamek 222.5 vs. Nagy Aguilera 226.5


I expect Adamek to outpoint Aguilera quite easily.

He seems like a great guy. I wouldn't mind seeing him go back to 200 where he was the champion, because his frame is too small for heavyweight and the added weight just slows him down.

Some potential streams for the Adamek and Lyakhovich fights:

He's bascially the Tim Tebow of boxing. I've never in my life seen support for a fighter like today. He's basically the man among Poliish people

Adamek will probably win this one on a decision but he let a ko get away early when he had the guy weakened.

Where's this fight taking place? The crowd's pretty lethargic.

My scorecard is 99-91 for Adamek (9 rounds to 1).

Solid performance by Adamek, especially considering he was coming off the brutal beating from Vitali Klitschko.
Judges scorecards were 99-91, 100-90, 100-90 for Adamek.

Adamek with the unaniomous decision. Not a bad fight but he seemed much quicker, stronger, and in better shape. In a longer fight he should have had a KO.

Adamek was using his opponent as a punching bag, but unfortunately he doesn't have heavyweight KO power, and his opponent, like a bad dream, kept advancing all night long.

I suspect many of Adamek's fans didn't bother to cross the GWB to get into Brooklyn. So the crowd was basically general boxing fans. From what I know of the NYC Polish community it's much older and more integrated, so loyalty to the motherland is probably minimal.

If Adamek moves back to cruiserweights, there are lots of fights waiting for him and i don't see anybody beating him at that weight. Adamek vs Tarver would be great and would make sense as both faced Aguilera and it would be a good scalp to add to his resume.
