Didn't realize they are facing each other this weekend. I firmly believe Povetkin will fuck him up. He'll be too aggressive and too fast. Huck really is terrible imo. Povetkin will land the cleaner, harder shots and will knock him out eventually.
Yep. Impossible to see any other outcome, I don't think Huck has a single advantage over Povetkin. In his own division Huck has overcome his opponents with his physical edges, he doesn't have them here and he gets fucked. And I will enjoy watching it
Huck must be cashing out. Odd. Maybe the fix is in. Who knows. Huck is a doorman. Povetkin is a good fighter who has pissed away his chance at the big-time by being stupid. Is this fight on Eurosport or Boxnation by any chance? What do you think of May vs Cotto being on Boxnation :bears: Wonder will they squeeze in Rios vs Gamboa too.
I used to like Povetkin a lot. Shame his career has turned into a non entity, and still hasn't faced either Klitschko or made much of a name for himself. Still, this is a non fight. Huck gets beaten with ease.
Nah, Povetkin will huff and puff, then beat him with ease. I guarantee you, you could put Povetkin in a cold room on his own and he would find a way to go red in the face and sweat and get tired.
Huck beats up his sparring partners, hits them low, elbows them etc knowing fully that they can retaliate as Huck has a fight coming. Also, everybody who has met him agrees that he is among the biggest dickheads in the sport. I stood next to him in the press conference where he challenged Povetkin. I was just about to beat him up when he ran away to Povetkin's and Atlas' table
Apart from the sparring shit I am not sure either, I have gotten the impression that he is a spoiled kid who demands special treatment, but I don't know the details. Also, he looks like an asshole
Povetkin/Huck is on BoxNation. Burns and that ugly ginger kid will be too. I'm psyched Cotto/Floyd's on BoxNation. Definitely worth the ten bob imo, no matter what people think.
Povetkin is a fatoy.He is better off trying to play the "STATE PUFF MARSHMALLOW MAN" IN THE REMAKE OF Ghostbusters.FATTY,FATTY,FATFUCK.
Huck is one of the more underrated boxers in the sport. Povetkin will probably outwork him and win a decision, but I hope Huck drops a bomb on him and hurts everyone's feelings. He won't get any credit, though; Povetkin will just be downgraded.
I knew. mikE is quite predictable. If it's both wrong and objected to by pretty much everyone else, you can all but guarantee mikE will say it.
Who underrates him? Isn't he rated to the top of his division by pretty much everybody? How much more rating should he get with his ring record and questionable decisions? Also, do you have any basis for your other claim? What makes you think, if Huck wins, that he won't get a top-5 rating in the heavyweight, which he deserves if he beats Povetkin? Adamek came from cruisers too, defeated Arreola and earned his spot at the top-5. Why would Huck be treated any differently?
Everyone who says he sucks. Not around here. I'm fine with him being considered the #1 cruiser. I've seen him and I think he is tough and good. Will he? I doubt it. I'm basing it off of the disrespect he gets around here which is prevalent and the dismissing of his quality wins to date, although maybe people have enough vested in Povetkin to make an exception for Huck if he wins. Arreola is probably a far easier challenge than Povetkin and if Huck was looking to make money rather than challenge himself, that would have been a good place to start. Just like Adamek did. Adamek is a perfect example. He got tons of praise for being a good cruiser, but I think Huck is a better cruiser than Adamek was. Because 'he sucks' and it's easier to continue to view things that way.
How did you score it steve? Oh thats right, I forgot, you didn't catch it. Cracking great fight last night in a great atmosphere, two warriors going at it, of course you were getting some nachos in for the Maidana vs The Guy Who Dominated Maidana Like Nobody Ever Did Before fight This was a fucking great cracking fight between two warriors and a crying shame on this forum for not showing greater interest, and great great credit to Germany for hosting this splendiferous event. Our fights? Splendiferous. Your fights? CONiferous. <object style="height: 390px; width: 640px"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/GKuLhKLs-pI?version=3&feature=player_detailpage"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/GKuLhKLs-pI?version=3&feature=player_detailpage" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="640" height="360"></object>
This is a fucking glamour event, and a cracking great fight. Of course, you have your booing, hissing, spitting Huck fans, but what can one do. It takes all sorts to make a World. <object style="height: 390px; width: 640px"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/g7AJtEJyITg?version=3&feature=player_detailpage"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/g7AJtEJyITg?version=3&feature=player_detailpage" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="640" height="360"></object>
Yes it duzahhh!!!! It takes all sorts to make a division too, we must make accommodations and we must do so gracefully. For everyone else, there is Maidana vs Devon "Pound For Pound" Alexander.
I've recorded this. Just at the rugby now. I'll catch up on all the footy and boxing from this weekend during the day. I heard Huck gave a good account of himself and Povetkin ran outta gas?
Jesus, I can't believe Povetkin had a close fight with Huck :: No wonder Povetkin has steered clear of either Klitschko.
