Talking of officials........

I hope Brewster and Krasniqi have a fair fight and it isn't settled by some dodgy German officiating just because it would have been Max Schmellings 100th birthday. I thought that when the fight was announced that it was a suicide mission for Brewster!

He desperatley needs to KO Luan to leave Germany with his belt!!!!!

I feel Krasniqi will win a close but fair unanimous decision, Krasniqi is capable enough to beat the limited Brewster without the intervention of the usual band of corrupt officials IMO.

I'm really not sure about this fight. Despite his impressive demolition of Golota, I'm still not sold on Brewster, whilst I feel Luan is decent, but limited. Could go either way, but I do (just) side with Luan to nick a points decision.

Obviously, I hope dubious officiating doesn't enter the equation. However, should Krasniqi gain the verdict, be prepared for loud claims of 'dodgy Germans, Americans should never fight abroad again, it's not fair', etc from the other side of the Atlantic, regardless of how fair the decision is.

And they will ofcouse not have seen the fight when they say it. Best example is how boxingtalk reported Ottke vs Mitchell as a big robbery minutes after the fight was over, at least the corrected it a day or so later.

Your right Freheit, I don't think Ottke-Mitchell could be disputed, i had Ottke a clear winner
