    seems like they are the top 2 guys at Cruiserweight, Huck has made about 11 defences of his WBO title yet doesn't get the respect he deserves imo he's proved himself as a top fighter, Wlodarczyk also, he seems to have been at the top of the cruiserweight rankings forever, certainly in the last 8 years Ive been watching boxing. Wlod is very deceptively good, he has a great chin, heart and power, I could understand if people didn't rate him if they haven't seen him much ( I was the same), but after watching him a few times you realise he is really good.
    I think this match up should happen to determine who the best cruiser is, will it happen? who dyou think will win?
    what prospects do you think will come up at cruiser to give them a good fight, I think Masternauk is a top prospect.
    Cruiserweight is really exciting right now, theres been lots of excting fights in the last 2 years, and so many potential exciting fights

    I agree those 2 are the top 2, though Masternak and Usyk are the future of the division and I think Chahkiev will come back and do well

  4. Huck has a good chin, but he's not a good boxer in my opinion. The last fights were strange and Arslan schooled him .. too much Sauerland-bonus, one of the biggest robberys in boxing history.
    Can remember how even Luan Krasniqi entered the ring and tried to calm Arslan down, telling him he is the real winner.
    In the past fights were the whole crowd against Huck, Wegner was angry towards the crowd.

    I think these are the 2 guys to beat in Crusier. They both don't seem to get much attention. I still think Huck beat Povetkin but he has been gifted a decision before IMO. It's hard for Wlod to stay focused but when he is, he is a nightmare to deal with. His power and chin are great. Do you guys remember that just about 2 years ago Wlod was in the hospital for overdosing on anti-depressants.. I hear he was in a short coma as well... and he's still the CHAMP! That's crazy.
     
  6. there's never been any demand for this fight
    I don't know why it's odd
    I think it's one of the best possible matches in boxing and would be a FOTY type fight

    The promoters should make some unification fights at cruiserweight, like Huck-Hernandez, Wlodarczyk-Hernandez or Huck-Wlodarzcyk.

    Yeah, officially but I think Troy Ross is the best CW. He was beating Cunningham easy until he got cut by a thumb and lost by doctor stoppage, and he got robbed against Hernandez.

    Never forget Arslan, he clearly beat Huck. But they will fight again to solve this one and for all. :bbb

    I thought Huck won by a couple of rounds, it was a close fight certainly not a robbery

    The rematch is on very soon so what's the point in moaning about it, he's got the chance to avenge the defeat, it will be settles we'll see who the better fighter is.

    But I fully expect a Huck win, Huck had an off night against Arslan but was back to near his best in his last fight against Afolabi,
