The heavyweights need me
I wouldn't mind seeing him at HW full time. He comes to fight and that what the division needs. I think he won against Povetkin for what that's worth.

I may have had povetkin edge it by one if I remember but huck did more damage in that fight. He's sloppy but fun to watch and a ton of heart, considering he almost had no amateur career he's done great.Quote:

I would LOVE to see a Huck vs Povetkin II. I thoroughly enjoyed the first fight, was one of my favourite heavyweight fight in years. Huck just comes to fight an I love that....
I want to see a Huck rematch with Lebedev, another good one at cruiserweight would be against Hernandez.
Every potential fighter that comes along parrotts that same old drivvle! Cunningham gave u a boxing lesson! The division is fine without you marco (although i would pay to see you headbutt haye for 12 rounds!) I like huck, his last few fights were value for money, he beat lebedev and afolabi (all close fights though) but he certainly did not beat povetkin! Ppl forget povetkin had just split from teddy atlas and was basically trainerless for that fight, a draw is feasable but huck did not do enough early on, he was sloppy! That was the worst ever povetkin and huck still lost...
Lets get real though he lost to adamek victim steve cunningham, adamek is a much more relevant and better HW prospect than marco! Id like to see that fight though...huck is a tough fighter, always give value for money but he would fail miserably at the top level of the HW division. Adamek close UD huck.

Philosopher, good call on an Adamek fight. That has the making of a great heavyweight fight.
Steve Cunningham is talking about going up to heavyweight...I wouldn't mind seeing them go at it again. Their first fight was entertaining...Marco's inexperience showed in that fight...he punched himself out if IIRC.
Hard to believe Huck is just 27. He's got plenty of time to make a move to HW. I would like to see him remain at cruiser until Wladimir retires...then he can roll the dice. If he does insist on fighting at heavy he should as mentioned target the smaller heavies like Adamek, Cunningham(if he moves up), Boytsov, Banks, Mitchell etc.
The heavyweight division needs more than Huck.
A truckload of talent and slimfast wouldn't go amiss.
Well he did give Povetkin a beatdown in the later rounds and had him hurt a few times. Shame he couldn't finish him.
Huck is fun to watch. I would like to see him against Adamek and Haye. But now, not in 5 years time.
He still lost though.Quote:

Personally i don't even think huck beats prospect's boystov and pulev. He'd be a good test for seth mitchell and mike perez though...
Wlad, VK, haye, povetkin (fully fit and mentally focused) adamek, chambers, thompson etc all beat him. In fact i'd favour dimitrenko and helenius over him too...hell, even mormeck would be far from a certain win...
Solis, chisora etc would i favour huck over them?? Not really...i would favour him to beat stiverne, a fading gomez and chagaev though, arreola v huck would be a war too!
Whatever do you mean?Quote:

There are not many fighters EVER of there size (other than the klitschko's and lennox) who are totally ripped! In fact it's the 'fleshier' fighters that CAUSED THE BIGGEST problems to the Klitschko's (ibragimov/chisora etc) Their ripped/muscular opponents (Eliseo Castillo, haye, Herbie Hide, kevin johnson etc …) caused hardly any threat. And it's the slightly less athletic Klitschko brother (Vitali Klitschko) who was never knocked down in his heavyweight career.
Calling someone "fat" is the favorite sport of keyboard warriors, The name calling got utterly bizarre and the fat level is completely blown out of proportion.
I can't even imagine what names Muhammad Ali and his opponents would have to hear nowadays. Here is a quick reminder of how championship fights looked before the advent of modern heavies like Tyson or Klitschko:
