gotta see him fight 1st i dont like ranking ppl without a fight at the weight before that its just speculation, is his povetkin fight on for real
you've got at least 20 top fighters who would beat him, even at CW, he wasn't the best, loss to USS, gift wins with Afolabi and Lebedev, since then he's fought B level CW's
Huck never even beat an elite level CW. At HW he doesn't rate. He'll get stomped by Povetkin. A limited club fighter against a former Olympic gold medalist, the difference in class should show up clearly.
The only reason you think so is Povetkin on your avatar. Huck is not even top 50 right now, and the reason for it, aside from the obvious that he hasn't had a single fight at HW, is that he is a behind-the-block fighter that walks around with his guard up, accumulating punishment only to throw flurries when possible, a-la Arthur Abraham. This tactic isn't great to begin with and is a SUICIDE against power-punchers in the heavyweight division. Eddie Chambers likes this tactic, but he is infinitely more agile and his hands are actually faster than Huck's. Aside from Chambers, how many top fighters are out there that actually use this "technique"? Another reason for ranking him this low is his punch resistance and overall speed. He wasn't the fastest at cruiser, he didn't have the best chin, he didn't have the best resume and he sure as hell didn't have the best skill. We basically have a slightly above average cruiser going to heavyweight to give Alexander Povetkin his FIRST YOUNG FIGHTER NOT COMING OFF A LOSS since Eddie Chambers.
Top 20 at a push, but to be honest I dont even have him in the top 5 at cruiserweight. He is a clear notch and a half below Haye and Adamek.
