    Current circumstances is an interesting angle. Zuniga has had some major dissappointments over the past year or so. That brings up a question: Will he come into this fight hungrier than ever, or emotionally muck fuddled from a long stream of disappointments? The answer to that could be the key to victory, or the cause of defeat.

    What do you mean he has a 5 fight winning streak and hasn't lost for 3 years

    If he was at home sitting on his ass i would agree with you but look at it this way
    He trained his ass of to fight Pascal but Pascal pulled out, right after that he was scheduled to fight Demers but Zuniga pulled out of that fight (probably because he knew something about this WBO title shot that we don't and didn't wanna risk it). And then he started sparring Bute right away. I don't see any reason for him to be muck fuddled or even **** muddled

    You forgot to mention getting screwed out of a shot at Arthur Abraham.

    I've been following Zuniga for a few years, and I've never seen any signs of mental weakness, so I tend to agree with you. I personally expect see him hungrier and more motivated than ever. The down side is that other than some cab driver he sparked in two rounds last month, Zuniga has not fought in over a year.

    Lets wait and see,brickhaus! Zuniga is a decent fighter,but IMO he is a little bit overrated,too.
    Inkin looks horrible against defensive fighters,and at times not that great against mediocre opposition.However,the better his opponents the better he fights.
    Inkin is an experienced pro,but he is no draw neither in Russia nor in his adopted Germany.I am positive that his German promoter Kohl will dump him as soon as he has lost with Zuniga.His pro career will be over in case he loses to Zuniga. Inkin has to win this upcomming fight.
    Besides styles make fights.Zuniga's style truly suits Inkin's one.

    Zuniga puts Inkin to sleep with a signature left hook:)

    Inkin will win this after a few rocky moments.

    Inkin is going to school him. I've changed my mind.

    How is Inkin stamina? Because I'm not sure of Zuniga stamina, and he looked small against Pavlik, at 160. At 168, he will look very small. He's very agressive, but his enery seems to decline after a couple of rounds. If Inkin wants to win, he has to survive to the first rounds.I checked a few Inkin fights, I'm not sure he's slick enough to avoid Zuniga power punches. Fulgencio himself has a terrible defense. I guess everything is possible then, but I go for Zuniga.

    I like the poll... I hope the odds will be the same: Zuniga as the favourite... I need the money! :)

    Inkin on points.
