    Their first fight and their styles remind me a little bit of Khan(huck) vs peterson(afolabi) fight!
    While i think Afolabi has improved really well since their first meeting i have serious doubts that he can pull out the victory especially in germany!
    I think afolabi will make the mistake to try and box huck and give time and ground to huck!
    Afolabi has to fight like peterson in the khan fight! Pressure Pressure Pressure to beat huck! That beeing said i still expect a very close fight! But huck will win more rounds due to his flurrys and afolabi not staying his ground enough!

    9721 vCash on Huck. He impressed me a lot going up in weight and beating Povetkin when I thought he was going to lose for sure

    Ola is classy & in patches he looks like a world beater, but, I'm not convinced he's shed the sparring partner mentality.

    Huck is crude & limited but you cant question his heart & determination, if Ola wants it more then he'll win but I dont think he'll bring that attitude to the fight.

    It will take a tremendous performance to beat Huck in Germany, as good as Ola is I'm not sure he has the balls to go & do it

    I do think ola has the balls to do it! Anybody who gets in the ring and spar the klitschko brothers has to have balls even though they say its only sparring!
    But i dont think Ola will have the right gameplan! He has to be the agressor all the time! He shouldnt let huck bully him into the ropes! But thats what i think will happen and the judges will be influenced by that in germany and give rounds to huck even when most of the time ola has dominated! The flurrys from huck will win him enough rounds!

    Huck takes this fight although I'd be happy if either man wins.

    Wonderful avatar Doctor. :hat

    Massive difference between sparring in a gym & fighting infront of a big crowd

    Anyone who gets in the ring has balls, but it takes a hefty set to go & beat a prime, long reigning champ in his backyard. Ola drifts into a passive survival mode too often, he cant afford to coast in this fight but I think he will.

    Huck had a very tough fight only about two months ago and hes coming down in weight. I'm high Afolabi anyway and he has enough power to hurt Huck.. i smell the upset

    I watched their first fight in full the other day. Huck clearly won and their was no controversy surrounding it at all. Ola doesn't throw enough and goes into defensive mode when Huck is swinging. Having said that if Huck isn't in shape or is weight drained then Afolabi will win as he made it a fairly close fight the first time

    I dont know if you have followed Afolabis career after the huck fight but let me tell you he is much more serious now and has improved a lot under his new trainer fritz sdunek! but i dont think he will be fighting agressive enough to take hucks crown!

    Afolabi close decision, might get robbed.
