    Germany,novembre the 7th,Valuev vs Haye

    Very promising heavy weight talent Robert Helenius(9-0) from Finnland will have to prove that he has the potential to be a future champ as he is scheduled to take on Taras Bidenko(26-3) in his 10th pro fight.
    Bloody tough fight for the young gun! In case he is victorious he will square off against Lamon Brewster on the undercard of Huck vs Olafabi at the end of the year.

    Former Bulgarian heavy weight amateur star Kubrat Pulev(2-0) is even matched more toughly than his stable mate from Finnland.He will face Nigerian olympian Gbenga Oloukun(17-2) who upset Lamon Brewster's comeback plans a couple of weeks ago.
    I had the pleasure to watch the African's last outing to a ring live.He lost a close fight which could really have gone either way to German heavy weight talent Rene Dettweiler(25-2) on the undercard of AA vs Taylor.
    Amazingly tough matchmaking! Even Solis and Povetkin havent been matched as toughly as Pulev.

    Belarus'pride Sergej Lyakhovich(23-3) will fight American journeyman Jeremy Bates(22-16),and another guest from the states,John Ruiz(43-8),will showcase his "skills" against a German based experienced journeyman named Adnan Serin(19-10).

    British cruiser weight talent George Groves(6-0),Austria's middle weight hope Marcos Nader(4-0),and undefeated American based Puerto Rican cruiser weight hope Francisco Palacios(18-0) will also appear on the undercard.

    Huge German heavy weight talent Edmund Gerber(7-0) is scheduled to take on an American journeyman.

    And last but not least undefeated German-Ukranain cruiser weight contender Alexander Frenkel (20-0) will try to score another ko victory. His opponent will be a recognisable name:Kelvin Davis(24-10) from the USA.

    Great undercard IMO!:good:happy

    For once, that does actually sound like a decent undercard. Somewhat more likely to buy the PPV in the uk now.

    I'm really looking forward to see if Liakhovich can get back to his old shape.

    With Valuev he wa flabby.

    Looks crap. Do want to see George "Mini Haye" Groves though.

    Not so bad actually, getting to see former titlists like Lyakhovich and Ruiz on one card. Plus a few prospects Helenius and Frenkel.
    Let's just hope that Haye doesn't pull out of the fight...

    Many of Sauerlands recent cards were pretty good. They (and Universum) got a lot of heat for putting together "bum of the month" cards in the past, but at least Sauerland has taken the criticism to heart.

    Wow, this is great. Some good matchups and comebacks. I wonder how Liakhovich and Ruiz will do after layoffs

    You are right,madballstar!

    Sauerland's fight cards have improved a lot within the last 2 years in terms of even matchmaking and regocnisable opponents.

    Edmund Gerber,Germany's version of Valuev,will face a certain Shawn McLean from the USA.

    McLean stopped unbeaten Faruq Saleem(39-0) in his last outing to a ring.

    He lost to Bogdan Dinu,the other known name in his fight record.
    Dinu is a very promising young Romanian heavy weight who made some noise at the amateurs.
