Likelihood of getting Ola Afolabi defend his title in London

He said he wants to fight Huck in London which doesn't look likely but anyone else they could get to fight Afolabi.

Also whats his promotional ties?

 

He's tied to K2. Not sure if it's exclusive or not though. He's got little to no chance of facing Huck as Huck's already said he's contemplating making a run at heavyweight.

I'd expect him to fight for the vacant title on undercard of the next Klitschko fight tbh, unless they get Golovkin on it instead.

 

he'll probably be on the next K2 bill

 

Would love Ola to get some publicity over here.

It's tough though as he lives in the states and fights in Germany

 

Hucks going back to cruiser.The rematch with Afolabi will now happen.

 

I would love to see Ola come back to england, really is a well rounded fighter.

 

You're right. :thumbsup

I was sure I'd read yesterday that he was considering making a run at heavyweight, which is why K2 said they'd consider him as an opponent for Vitali. After reading your post a quick search showed me he'd said today he was returning to cruiserweight. A rematch with Ola would be fun.

The fact he's said Sauerland convinced him to stay at cruiserweight "for the time being" does make me think he will move back up though. If he beats Ola in a rematch and then fights and beats Hernandez, I can't see him sticking around.

 

I think Ola beats Huck this time around.

 

He probs is our most underrated fighter. Froch goes on about no publicity....

 

If Ola brings it to London (doubt it) then bring it down South!

You never know - maybe Haye will beat Vitali and can either rematch him or Wladimir in London with Ola as chief support. Other than I expect him to keep fighting in Germany, as it seems to be where the cards featuring the top cruiserweights are held.

If he does beat Huck it'll be interesting to see if Sauerland are open to working with K2 on Ola fighting guys like Hernandez, Cunningham, Ross etc or if K2 will just snap up whatever cruiserweights there or thereabouts in the 'top 10' they can.

 

It's not so easy to promote a fighter who's only fought in Britain once, lives in America and is promoted in Germany.

 

Come home, Ola.

 

He's trying to sort visa in U.S out at the moment. He's very happy there i dunno if he'll ever come back. Lovely fella met him and spoke to him other day on facebook.

 

I like Ola, its a shame if he dosn't fight in England again, he has that same relaxed persona that big Lennox had, he can fight a bit as well.
