Wow Hearn really trying to sell this
Is he getting desperate ?
Is the card not selling well ?

Im okay with Hearn talking like this, because it’s his job as a promoter. But Miller should be ashamed of himself. Just call it what it is. There are four levels in professional boxing: champion, contender, prospect, and journeyman. Adamek is no contender. If the fighters aren’t in the same class it’s either a step up or mismatch. Adamek is no step up

Useless fight. Yawn

He either thinks everyone is stupid, or he just doesn't care that they know he's full of sht.

This IS a dangerous mismatch in that you have a former light heavyweight whose best days are almost a decade old, against a much younger nearly 300 pound natural heavyweight with a PED cloud over his head.

Adamek typically would weight in about 220. If that's not a gross mismatch then Tyson Fury vs Sefer Seferi was the FOTY.

It's a mismatch. Adamek will get destroyed.

But Hearn is right that it's not a gross mismatch. This is a typical stay busy fight. Every day in boxing there are wayyyyyy bigger mismatches than boxrec 7 vs. boxrec 15. And while many try to dismiss boxrec rankings, they are a great way for people in the industry to see who has really been tested and proven themselves.

The media ****ting on this fight need to get a life. This fight makes a ton of business sense, which is why it's happening.

Got to be the sleaziest promoter there is short of Don King. The only person that doesn't think it's a mismatch is him.. But he's just trying to sell

Well, lucky for Adamek, Miller is the most feather fisted 300 pound man I have ever seen.
Miller does move well for his size, but he isn’t an explosive puncher by any means.
