    I dont know to much about this fight but it seems like a very interesting one to me. Sturm has the experience, the hometown advantage (which is HUGE in Germany) and is a little tricky. But he is coming off a poor performance which IMO he lost. Pittman is young, hungry and has built some momentum. He is a tricky southpaw and moves very well. How ever he might be a little green to step up this early in his career. How do you guys see this one going? Can Pittman win on points or does he need the knockout? Is he stylistically superior?

    I think he can win on points, not all fights in Germany are fixed. But i see Sturm already has his next fight in the works, so i hope it still is on.

    I dont think Pitman would KO Sterm, he is battle tested and wont hit the deck easy.

    I'm tipping Pittman to win this and there'll be a rematch clause in the contract. If he wins that, he'll keep fighting in Germany.

    IMO this will be a good betting match because the bookies will under rate Pittman :deal

    Sounds good. There's a lot of talk on the net about Pittman in an upset. Hope the bookies don't have their finger on the pulse.

    Often fighters who get shots when they aren't mandatory sign away their next few fights if they do happen to win.
