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

BoxNation have picked this one up for the UK fans.

Saturday June 8th, 8PM UK
Max Schmeling Halle, Berlin, Germany (BoxNation):
Marco Huck vs. Ola Afolabi III, 12 rounds WBO Cruiserweight Title

Good fight. I fancy Afolabi this time

Damn, I stopped my box nation, I forgot about this fight.:(

I think huck turns it up earlier this time and gets a w, but who the hell knows, should be fireworks.

What is it with 3 Saturday night chat threads started on a Tuesday? Huck is a terrible boxer and Afolabi hardly sets the world on fire. I may end up watching it again because it's live boxing but really, life is too short. Meh.

Huck may be a terrible boxer, but he makes for fun fights and makes up for what he lacks in skills with guts and heart.

I thought their 1st 2 fights were very entertaining and Huck v Povetkin was also a good fight. Looking forward to this again

This is a great fight and I can't wait for Ola to finally win this time! I have faith in him, but no doubt we will have another really good fight so looking forward to it ! This fight will be the best of the weekends fights I reckon.

Dariusz Sek vs. Robert Woge coming up next.

How many times have uli and fritz faced off, I got huck in the first

Huck far more aggressive than last time.

Got huck 2-0 but ola landin to the body might zap hucks energy in later rounds

Huck landing clean power shots and ola is shakin his head and what not but he better start dodging those cause every chin cracks sooner or later

Huck dominating now...

Yea ola better stop takin those punches he's going to be out in two or three more rounds if he keeps takin punches like he has, 4 zip for huck

Better round for Ola but Huck probably stole it in the last 10 seconds.

Fith either way but to huck on more hurtful shots, but god huck can be a dirty mofo

I got it all for huck thus far, he better start thinking about a ko cause he ain't getting a decision

Come on ola land something

This is a garbage fight imo, both guys are so mediocre to be fighting at championship level.

They're far from garbage, it ain't pretty but both their hearts and guts are worldclass! Put hucks will in one of the decent heavies and klits would have a fight on their hands

I don't think Afolabi is showing much fire in this fight honestly, although you're right they are both very game. I just can't handle how sloppy most of the action is, Afolabi is doing his best mummy routine throwing these sweeping overhands and Huck just flurries away in the clinch without timing him or anything. I dunno.

My thoughts exactly. How anyone can rate a fighter that struggles against Huck in the British top ten is beyond me. It's not even a proper brawl. Neither one thing or the other. My eyes hurt.

I get what your saying its ugly, and I used to watch froch back in the day and this everything he does looks so fuckin ugly yet kept winning, huck imo is a more extreme version of that. Can't blame the guy tho he's got virtually fuck all for amateur experience, and hell many had him winning the povetkin fight a former olympic gold medalist

Yup. It's becoming a brawl now, but the form both of these guys throw with is just appalling really.

It wasn't pretty but hell round ten was fun and I don't think ya can hate on a sloppy brawl here and there

Afolabi needs the 12th for a draw.

What round is it and does it look like it's going the distance?
I bet on Huck on points.

Huck if he can stay upright got it imo, its going to the twelfth

I reckon your money is safe. 60 seconds left in the fight. Not been watching properly but it looks like Hucks been all over him.

Huck stole the 12th at the end. Huck should be the winner. Afolabi fails yet again

I also bet on Degale in the 4th and in the 5th. There better not be a loophole!

Afolabi balance is bad. He's gives the impression he's been staggered more than he really is

Possibly the worst trilogy in boxing history. Dire.

Huck won it 8-4 imo tho I could see it a bit closer huck definitely won tho

I can see 117-111

I'd laugh if they didn't pay out on account of DeGale being a prick. ;D
