WelshDevilRob Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Adamek vs. McBride - Best Laid Plans? by Rob Day Kevin McBride, ‘The Clones Colossus’, goes into Saturdays Heavyweight bout with Poland’s Tomasz Adamek (43 - 1, 28 ko’s), as a clear underdog, no, make that a huge underdog. He is simply there to make up the numbers, in what can be described as a ‘glorified’ sparring session for the highly ranked, two weight ‘World’ Champion Adamek. McBride brings heart, size (6 foot 6 inches) and a losing streak to the fight. His record stands at 35 wins with 29 Ko’s and 8 losses (6 coming via KO). His career started in 1992 and he is now 37 years old in his long career, his most notable win is over ‘Iron’ Mike Tyson, via 6th round TKO, though it was a completely shot Tyson that McBride beat and a shell of the boxer that reigned with terror in the 1980’s.

londoner Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 This is nothing more than a warm up bout for Adamek. A very easy night's money. I think it will be Vitali who fights Adamek later in the year simply because Wlad will be fighting Haye in the summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
