  Saturday night in Stuttgart, Germany, WBO cruiserweight champion Marco Huck moved up in weight to challenge the WBA "regular" heavyweight champion Alexander Povetkin. With the title on the line and both men's futures hanging in the balance, there was a lot at stake in this bout.

  While things were just beginning to heat up at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas Saturday night, things were already scorching hot at the Messehalle in Erfut, Germany. Marco Huck (34-2), last seen giving Alexander Povetkin a run for his money in February, met Ola Afolabi (19-2-3) a second time.
