Rakhim by decision. Wlodarczyk for me has been a bit of a darkhorse for some time and for me the most underrated of the cruiserweight champs.
Its a great fight, sad it won't get the coverage it deserves.
An unbeaten southpaw, olympic gold medalist with massive power against a highly experienced boxer-puncher who is as tough as they come.
This has fireworks written all over it.

Rakhim's defense is solid, he has great head movement and very rarely does he get hit flush. Thus far in his pro career the only time I can recall him getting hit flush was two right hands by Taylor.
For an aggressive southpaw his defense has looked nothing short of world class in my book.

Chakhkiev's defense is not C+ it's very good using a genuine peek-a-boo style, tight guard and very active head movement.

Its a great division and possibly my favourite. So glad these guys are being matched.
Rakhim vs Wlodarczyk
Huck vs Afolabi 3
Jones vs Lebedev
All coming up & we've got some very good prospects like Masternak & Kucher about to explode onto the world scene.
I think Boxnation is covering them all too so that is great news.
