    When is Chaney going to step up? His opposition so far has been about as bad as Wilders when he was coming up.

    I just re-watch Kowancki - Helenius, Oh boy, that polish is a bad boxer. If there is a rematch coming, Robbie will beat him again.

    Kharitonov could be in some entertaining fights. He's older and really slow now but the power is still there making for some entertaining bouts. a fight with Price could end up being pure comedy gold.

    They wanted Danny to take a dive in that fight. He refused which is how we ended up with that lol

    I agree. He's been knocked down in a few fights too so he has a bit of a shaky chin. I guess he's just holding out for that big payday.

    David Adeleye moves to 3-0 after a 3rd round stoppage win over Phil Williams. He's a bit raw at this stage obviously but he's one to look out for imo.

    What is Huck doing wasting him time with fights like this? This is a big step down from Saglam. Better to stay active than not but if he's serious about a HW run, at 35 he can't be wasting time.

    If the Wilder fight does not come off, and Fury goes the suggested "tune-up" route, Huck may be a good opponent in December. Given how Povetkin's star is on the rise, and a lot of us still remember how close and good their fight was, that could be a selling point.

    We would all rather see him fight Joshua or Povetkin himself, but its not going to happen.

    Hucks ugly style could cause Fury some issues. More interesting than a more conventional boxer like Kabayel would as an opponent that's for sure.

    I actually have a thread in which I predict that it will be Kabeyal. He has promotional ties, is undefeated, and has some good wins, including Chisora.

    I sadly think Huck is shot. If Glownacki beat him, I don't see how he has a chance against Fury.

    Is Pala still fighting?

    He was a decent heavyweight. I remember him being the victim of a quick stoppage on a Frank Warren card in the UK.

    Not a great fight obviously. But it's good to at least see Hrgovic in the ring again. Pala was a solid guy at the European level. He's been out 6 years now though. But if he's in shape should still be a better opponent than the guy Dubois faced and maybe go 2-3 rounds(more if Hrgovic carries him)

    I'd like to see Pala build himself back up with some easier fights after this. Fun guy to watch/follow. He should go mop the floor with Gjergjaj.
