    :nono The Russian is just as much an "adopted German" as the Serb.

    A friend of mine met him recently (I'm from Berlin as is Huck) on a party and flirtet a little. I was surprised to find out he speaks albanian (she is from Kosovo so they eventually found out they speak the same language). Huck was born in a serbian village close to the Kosovo border in which albanian is apparently the semi-official language.

    Don't think so. Huck moved to Germany as a teenager, learned to box there, has Wegner as his coach, the German anthem is played when he fights etc. Whereas Povetkin makes everyone know he is Russian. But I don't think there'll be a lot bias anyway, I agree on that.

    Is Huck a Serb, a muslim or what? I've heard some contradicting info on it.

    Yes, but usually muslims from Serbia don't identify with the nationalism of the country all too much.

    Alright.

    Is there even a big group of ethnic Serb muslims, or are muslims in Serbia pretty much all of Bosnian or Albanian heritage?

    It's on a different card in Scotland.

    Shafikov is fighting on the road again - that draw he has on his record should have been a wide UD, he was robbed.

    I have no idea, I'm not a Serb :D I'd assume so though, seeing as Islam is a minority in Serbia and majority in Bosnia/Albania.

    That's my thoughts. Didn't really ask you specifically, thought there could be some posters lurking around with the background they might know about this ****.
