Comments Thread For: HBO, Sauerland Event In Talks To Showcase Marco Huck

[Foreign Soil]

I don't think there is a market for a guy like Huck. As a big fan of boxing I'm not interested in seeing him fight nor his lack luster division. HBO needs to invest in young and exciting talent. SHO has such a better, brasher, and younger brand of talent.

Disagree completely. The CW division is stacked with talent from different experience groups.

Can't wait make it happen HBO!

The point is boxing fans enjoy watching exciting fighters in entertaining fights and Huck is rarely in a boring one.

There don't need to any Americans in the division, just look at the success of Gennady Golovkin and Sergey Kovalev in their respective divisions.

No running, no hugging, just action.

Agreed. CW's have underrated speed and power. Remember how "fast" Eddie Chambers looked at HW? Lol he got shut down from speed at CW. Plus those guys hit like HW's. It's no wonder why some of the better HW's recently were CW's - Haye/Adamek.

Hopefully a match between Huck and champion Hernandez can be made before Huck moves up. That would be a cracking Inter-stable fight and a perfect showcase on HBO.

I don't think Huck vs. YPH will happen. They are both promoted by Sauerland and have the same trainer.

I hope HBO starts to showcase Cruiserweights. The division is stacked with good and exciting fighters: Huck, Hernandez, Chakhkiev, Lebedev, Makabu, Dorticos, etc. There are a lot of exciting fights to make.

Yeah, Drozd-Masternak was a hell of a fight too.. can't forget the vet Wlodarczyk - slow but savy with power. Then up and comers like Kudryashov and the Gold Olympian, Usyk. Lol... the division is stacked.

CW is not lackluster at all, it's just not american.

Some love with lightest divisions will be nice too.

I know its a longshot, but since Huck is moving up sooner rather than later, a loss for Hernandez or Huck wouldn't be devastating for the career. In the event of a Huck loss, he would just move up and perhaps claim weightmaking difficulties. If Hernandez lost, he'd surely fight for the title vacated by Huck.

Strange. I won't believe Sauerland is putting Huck into a fight in the US until I see him step between the ropes.

The only fight I can see generating even a modest interest from US fans would be a HW rematch against Cunningham and even that is a tough sell because most casual fans never saw their first fight - which was FOTY material.

The one good thing about the boxing Cold War is that it has forced hbo to showcase international fighters that 10 years ago would never be on...

Huck is always exciting so I can't wait to see him on hbo...
