    He ran like a ***** w/o the defensive skills to succeed to fight on the backfoot and got KTFO. What a joke.

    And he got knocked out for not pulling a Rigondeaux, he doesn't have the talent to pull off what Rigo did anyhow, even against fighters his own size at the top level.

    Its like Paulie Malignaggio once said.

    Guys who complain about fighters who use footwork and stick and move, only complaibn because they cant do it themselves.

    If they were able to, everyone would do it.

    Cunningham wishes he had the footwork of Rigo to avoid Fury...

    Fury is hardly the smartest fighter... Plodding forward with his size trying to land big shots at close range.. Dude doesn't even understand the meaning of lateral movement never mind cutting off the ring.

    And made this a much better fight for NBC television's casual fan base. Two knockdowns, including a KO is perfect for the casual sports fan. Rigo was on HBO, which was catering to a crowd of already established boxing fans.

    He fought dumb, after the knockdown he abandoned all the boxing he talked about pre fight and stopped using the angles and the up and down attack

    he got dumb and traded with the big man after thinking he could knock him out and paid

    Cunningham is one of the last guys I would have expected to diss Rigo for his style.

    Cunningham didn't fight smart. He should have fought like Haye did against Valuev. Run on your backfoot, land single hands and just keep running. Avoid all clinches.

    After the knockdown Cunningham frantically was looking for the KO and sealed his own doom.

    I just watched it. Right now. 117/112 Rigondeaux. I don't understand how anybody could even possibly think Donaire was anywhere close to winning.
