    Unbeaten challenger Marco Huck (19-0, 14 KOs) is a heavy favorite to dethrone IBF cruiserweight champion Steve Cunningham (20-1, 10 KOs) on Saturday in his hometown of Bielefeld, Germany.

    Sportsbook.com lists Huck as a -330 favorite while Cunningham backers can get +260. The numbers are even more lopsided for Huck at bet365.com, where the challenger is -400 to the champion's +275. bet365.com's oddsmaker has also listed Huck at +330 to win by KO, TKO or disqualification, but he is -150 to win by decision or technical decision. Cunningham is +900 to win by KO, TKO or DQ, and +450 to take a decision or technical decision.


    Cunningham is +900 to win by KO????:eeeek:

    Cunningham has no chance of a KO. The only way that bet can win is on a cut or DQ.

    yeah that's because there's no way he KO's Huck besides a DQ...

    Anybody know why Cunningham is +260 as the champ? I've never seen Huck fight and it seems like Cunningham has the better resume.

    He's fighting Huck in his hometown.

    Plus, Cunningham's tough times against the Pole probably don't look too good.

    Cuntingham sucks. He's the cruiserweight version of henry akinwande. Looks the same too

    Wloda isn't not a scrub he beat that bitch once! Wloda is just limited power puncher but I do hope you're right. I hope Huck knocks that bitch out

    Has anyone seen Huck fight? How on earth is he such a big betting favorite?

    Yes me! Because he beat Tokarev convincingly and he has a crowd pleasing style which will generate woo and wooo from the people in attendence whereas Cunninghams holding will only get booo and booo and that won't win him a decision in Germany.

    Sums it up perfectly :clap:

    Cunningham will garner no friends in Huck's hometown, especially as his style is so stultifying and German judges are known to be reasonably partisan at the best of times...

    Basically, he has to KO Huck to win, and that is not very likely, considering that he is, by elite cruiserweight standards, pretty feather fisted. Certainly Huck, Enzo Mac and Haye all hit a lot harder, and have much more crowd pleasing styles.

    Damn, what the hell happened? Did Double L pick Steve Cunningham for "moral support"?

    :lol: Yeah, I made it. Though, I'm seeing it all over the place now. So I'm thinking about switching it up to either...

    "The only reason they were able to make Rocky 1,2,3,4,5, and fucking 6 is because people believed in bullshit."

    or

    "It's like feedin' dat mufucka to da pirranhas..hoping he come out alive. But it won't make no difference because he gonna be so fucked up when he come out anyways."

    Decisions, decisions.

    The Chewbacca Defense might work.

    "You hear about that South Park episode where the guy got off scott free? Didya'? Didya'? Maybe that shit with Chewbacca was real. Think so? Think so?"

    Something about Fan Man being an alien might work.

    Streaming of Cunningham/Huck and Hernandez/Azzouzi starts at around 4.10PM EST. They´ll probably start with the main event.
