BoxNation - Marco Huck vs. Ola Afolabi III Saturday Fight Night Chat

I scored it 115-113 Huck.

There were three close rounds, the others were clear. I gave two close rounds to Afolabi and one close round to Huck.

Any score from 117-111 for Huck to 114-114 is understandable.

Huck 117-111 for me. He won it quite clearly. I didn't really see the need for a 3rd fight. Huck needs to move on and stop going over old ground. I hear he's looking at an Arslan rematch instead of trying to unify.

I wonder if he'd want to fight Guillermo Jones, that's a fight he may well lose imo. Really aren't many cruisers around worth fighting and he's clearly not going to be a decent heavyweight, not sure where he can go. Not that I care mind you;D

The 2 previous fights were entertaining so you can see why there was a third fight. Huck should stay away from heavyweights that is for sure.

He put up a very good fight against Povetkin who is probably the 3rd best heavyweight out there. No reason to think he couldnt do what Adamek did or more at Heavyweight? Id like to see him fight Hernandez or Jones. Both would be good fights

Povetkin is terrible. I think that fight said more about how overhyped Povetkin is. He has inflated the reality of his own feeble threat by avoiding and dragging out the inevitable Wlad fight for an eternity. There are quite a few fighters outside of the Klitschkos who could hand Povetkin his arse on a plate.

Agree totally, Povetkin is trash! I also don't think Huck would have any chance of even duplicating Adameks success at HW, although if they fought now it could go either way imo. A rematch with Cunningham would probably make sense to do again if he did want to move up, neither would have anywhere else to go anyways. Honestly though, a large part of me would rather never watch boxing again than tune in for Hucks bar fights.

Povetkin has preserved his unbeaten record for as long as he can and made as much money as he could out of it before getting destroyed by Wald.

Exactly, and he's not totally shit but really just not a good pro.
