I doubt the Cruiserweight tournament will ever materialize.

i dont think the crusier tournament is ever going to happen. Huck needs to rematch Lebedev in my opinion. Lebedev beat him and got screwed in Germany

There's better options for Huck than Garay. I'd like to a rematch between him and Cunningham or Lebedev.

Rematch USS Cunningham for the linear title, and be done with it.

I think everyone wants to see rematches against Cunningham or at least Lebedev.

I had $$$ on Lebedev. I didn't necessarily think he was screwed out of a decision in that Huck fight. Not moving your hands in the 12th round of a close fight is no way to win a fight on the road. He coulda nipped it, but it was hardly a robbery. Maybe I'm in the minority on that one.

BTW, is it just me or is there something about Huck that is difficult to like?

yeh he is a German based Snakey Sauerland fighter.

i see your point about Lebedev not really forcing the issue in the championship rounds but i think that throughout the fight he controlled the pace, he made Huck miss and landed the only telling shots. Huck was in retreat the whole fight. the fight was won for Lebedev way before the 12th in my opinion. i think Lebedev was resigned to the fact that he was not getting a decision in Germany. Lebedev dropped a split decision on a Sauerland promoted event... surprise surprise
