WBO Interim cruiserweight world champion, Ola Afolabi is in Germany to start the final preparation for his Thursday’s rematch with WBO cruiserweight champion Marco Huck.
Afolabi, 19-2-3 with 9 KOs, started his preparation two weeks ago for this much anticipated rematch; he has been training with fitness expert Harold Parker. Afolabi lost a close points decision in the first fight with Huck in December 5, 2009. Afolabi said, “I have waited for this fight for the last two and a half years. Huck has done everything possible to avoid fighting me again, he even moved to heavyweight to delay this fight. This time, I will not leave any doubt and I will become WBO cruiserweight champion.”
Tom Loeffler, managing director of K2 Promotions said of the fight, “I promised Ola another world title shot when he signed with us. Now that he has been training with Vitali Klitschko’s trainer, Fritz Sdunek, Ola has become a completely different fighter.
