    There is no fuss about him. The fact is Sauerland has a deal with Setanta, so Setanta are obliged to big him up.

    Everybody knows he's a crude fighter with no stamina that was horribly shown up against an average fighter like Steve Cunningham. USS Cunningham easily outboxed him, and stopped him on his feet in exhaustion. Beating a few guys with padded records has not changed that.

    Exciting to watch but it clear he isn't that good. I'm glad setanta have his fights they are usually good

    I don't mind watching him, what bugs me is the total lack of atmosphere at all german bouts, makes every fight seem really boring

    Say what you like about Cap'n Huck but when he fought last about 500 people came up with emails featuring nutcases and over 2,000 people read the thread on this site as the fight was happening!
    He was not over sold or under sold...he was just Cap'n Huck!

    Adios.

    He's got his flaws but to be honest we need fighters like him on TV on a saturday night if your gonna attract more fans to boxing.

    Very average, he has power but no skill and will always be exposed at the top level...unless he lands big with one of his wild punches.

    a fighter who isnt technically sound shouldnt fight. it should be made illegal.....


    please he is mad fun to watch. no one overates him except his promotional team (and they should do if i was cutting a part of my wages to them), bunce never says he is a world class talent he is just a big strong cruiser who likes to tear it up.

    if cap'n huck isnt a fitting enough name, then "tear up man" or somthign like that just so you know what it says on the tin.

    he is technically rubbish i dont like him at all and the statistick bunce posted is the amount of boxing fans there are glad there is boxing on the TV

    Hook isnt my favourite but he generates intrest which is good for boxing
