    Ola's one of my favourites and he definitely has to win this fight. Four times against the same guy and you can't pick up one win, at the world class level, is horrible.

    But that being said, Ola is a difficult fight for anyone, specifically someone coming off such a bad lost as Huck and I fully expect Ola to win this fight and do it in convincing fashion.

      What was so bad about Huck's loss? I mean it was embarrassing and deeply disappointing for him as a fighter, but it wasn't an especially brutal KO or prolonged beatdown that will have affected him physiologically. If I know Huck, he'll come into this fight like a man on a mission. He only really knows one way to fight, and I think this loss will have fired him up even more.

      Could be wrong, but it'll be fun finding out.

        He got knocked out in a fight he was the heavy favourite in. I don't know if anyone was picking Glowacki or had even really heard of him too much and while I agree it wasn't a type of prolonged beating, I think that takes something out of you and he did take some heavy shots as well. After Cunningham stopped him he came back in against soft opposition.

        I could be wrong too, but I think the loss that has you energized is one like the Povetkin fight and, coincidentally, his next fight after that one was the draw with Afolabi. If Povetkin had stopped him, would have given him a better chance to win that fight? I wouldn't have. Maybe he feels comfortable fighting Afolabi since he knows he can beat him, but I definitely think we'll see the best version of Ola that we can and he'll know if may be his last chance and certainly his last at Huck.

        Afolabi, on the other hand, is coming off one of the biggest wins of his career and he's already super awkward to fight. I think it's a bad time for Marco Huck to fighting Ola Afolabi and I completely agree with you though, it'll be really fun finding out!

          So, Pump you couldn't make my threads front page, twice in one month?

          None of their fights were dull and it is what it is. I'd watch it, but Afolabi gotta get a KO already.
