    Forgive me if I'm a bit late but on box nations website as a certainty for saturday now.....
    Anyways I'm buzzing mi knickers off for this one as both previous bouts have been full on entertainment and both chaps are a great advert for boxing.
    How do you see this one going?
    I'm slightly favouring Afolabi this time.I think he is the better technician and would have taken the last fight had it not been for a drop off In workrate due to stamina issues.I've recently read that his team have been working intensively to improve this issue and I see another war on the cards for Saturday with Afolabi taking a late victory through a stop page...rnd 10 for me.
    Can't wait for this!!!!!

    Great that Boxnation are showing it.

    I have also heard Afolabi has trained hard for this and hope he wins.

    Ive got him on Facebook Boxon and it certianly seems that way, taking into account it looks like hes in the best shape of his life, there previous meeting and Hucks shocking last outing, 11/4 PTS looks huge.

    Get in! At last! You can say what you like about him being a 'Brit by convenience' (plus Froch would have ripped him apart for sparring Wlad for the Haye fight!) but I think he's had the rough end of the stick, I mean, this is part 3, and all 3 in Germany, with part 2 being a draw, I think he's due some luck. Really hope Ola pulls through! KRYPTONITE!!!

    No shame in the draw or close win for Huck. The last two fights were very close. The third fight will be also close. But both guys need to make a clear statement in order to win.

    So I now see that Ajisafe AND Dickinson have been withdrawn from their German challenges...
    Seriously, what a time to have exams... Guess it's best to watch Lopez Maidana on repeat... :/

    Both good fighters. Tough fight, Huck favourite, but Afolabi could do it.

    I have no worries of how good the fight will be just hope the commentary is not as hypocritical as the their last fights commentary was
