Would Marco Huck be a decent title defense for Wlad?

    Haye was going to get a shot after his win over Barrett so if he can beat an equal opponent I don't see the issue otherwise and I bet Tarver gets a shot without beating anyone of note based on his somewhat notable name recognition.

    Barrett at that time would fit the description of "half decent".

      Barrett just got a D against Tua in a fight many on here thought he won, so if Huck beat him its good enough for me because Wlad was considering Tua as an opponent but after his poor showing against Barrett they obviously couldn't go with him or Barrett either because Wlad easily beat him years ago.

        Even though Cunningham beat Huck I think Huck is a more interesting match for Wlad than Steve would be because ofhis style and the fact that he isn't the biggest puncher. This in my mind gives him a zero% chance of winning as Wlad has never been outboxed before.

        In any case I think Huck's Style would lead to a highlight reel ko for someone most likely Wlad.
        but the fighter got to have some skills to go along with the pressure, and Huck doesn't have much of them skills he would need

        I agree with the rest

          I think so. The Klitschkos have cleaned up the HW division except for Haye and Povetkin who refuse to fight them, so sure, he's a decent opponent, better than Chisora IMO.

            Huck neither has the skills or the punch to be even remotely competitive with Wlad. Huck being a champion speaks volumes of the state of the cruisers.
