I personally would go with Sturm. For me he is more talented and easier to watch. Otke might have an unbeaten record but there were some dubious home decisions in there and some debatable refereeing too (Reid fight jumps to mind).

Anyways he has a solid resume with several top notch and legit wins along with some decisions that could easily have gone the other way. He benefitted from quite a weak era of SMW's and unfortunately he couldn't lure Calzaghe out of Wales which leads to a mindboggling statistic:
Ottke and Calzaghe has the record for titledefenses in the division with 20 something and they compiled their defenses practically simultaneously and yet they never fought each other.
If you're going to watch any Ottke fight, you'd be best off watching his fight with Anthony Mundine. If you haven't heard about the fight, then don't look for Info before watching.
