Weird. Afolabi fighting a title holder not named Huck.

Well, unless they can get Hernandez to fight the 18th of Oct, this is happening in Germany

Is it me or is Hernandez always fighting hucks leftovers

Cunningham, Arslan, Afolabi. But to be fair Huck didn't exactly make light work of them. Cunningham knocked him out, he got a gift decision against Arslan (in their first fight) and has had three close bouts againt Afolabi. These are good leftovers.

Afolabi's actually looked good of late, it will be a close fight.

True but I would rather see huck fight Hernandez

I kind of feel annoyed because Ola had 3 chances at Huck for the WBO title, but since Cruiser title holders aren't unifying anytime soon with the way it seems this isn't a bad fight. Also Afolabi has always given a good account of himself win/lose.

Except for Cunningham, that was the other way around.

Haha, but he is German based, so close enough right? May be next time.

Wow, great fight! I think Ola will beat Hernandez and take his title.
