Damn CW is such a stacked, talented division. It's definitely the most stacked, and talented/competitive division in boxing.

It just gets no love, and overlooked cause just about every single top fighter in the division is European.

And, of course, with the glamour division being just north at HW - people often view CW as just a "layover" for HW's.

Huck always tries to steal rounds with flurries at the end, it works in Germany, if Briedis doesn't allow him to do it and box smart he should take it.

I would agree with you except, I do not think that Huck got gifts like Felix Sturm. He always fights and has a fairly elevated work rate. Bredis is a dog (and an extremely live one), but he is an easier fight for Huck. Huck is a good boxer and controls the distance.
Flurries or combinations? I think Huck throws combinations

He is a good boxer, Huck, yeah. But, ref in Germany always allowed him to fight dirty (he is notorious in rabbit punching) and when necessary score the fight "right" way (first Arslan for example iirc).
And yeah, flurries, he very rarely lands something from that combos. He just throws set of punches.
But I am a Huck haiter, not as a person, but as a Wegner's boxing scholar, hate this style.

Oh Boy these women look like war-machines!

If Breidis shows good stamina, I think he stops Huck.
