Comments Thread For: Huck, Afolabi Prepare For Fourth Battle on Feb. 27
Cruiserweights Marco Huck and Ola Afolabi are ready to go to war once again, this time on February 27th at the Gerry Weber Stadium in Halle, Germany. RTL will televise the IBO championship contest.
The two boxers clashed on three occasions in the past and all three of their fights were close and exciting to watch.
In 2009, Huck won a twelve round unanimous decision over Afolabi. The went to a twelve round majority draw in their 2012 rematch, and Huck won another twelve round unanimous decision in their trilogy fight in 2013.

Its a huge opportunity for Huck to rebound, Ola just beat the guy holding a world title in Russia...

I have mixed feelings about this. On the face of it there's no need for these two to fight each other again. Huck clearly proved he was the better fighter whenever they stepped in the ring before. On the other hand, Ola's coming off that crazy win against Chakhiev while Huck's coming off the equally stunning loss to Glowacki. There's no doubt who's in the hotseat at the moment. Plus all three of their last fights were barnburners, so from an entertainment perspective there's no harm in putting it on again.
Very weird circumstances really.
