    Can we please stop pretending like Cunningham is some *****? He was the undisputed champ at CW, and dropped everyone's favorite banger in Amir Mansour. Guy is tough as nails and had a great career, and Fury made him quit.

    Wo, wo, wo. I never said Cunningham has chit?!

    I like Cunningham. The dude is a great fighter. However, he was out of his depth fighting Fury. That fight was a stitch up.

    What I was saying, is Parker has more power in his jab alone than Cunningham has in any of his punches and yet, he put Fury down hard.

    If the shorter Cunningham is able to land as he did, Parker sure as heck can & he can do it with much, much heavier hands behind it.

    For me the biggest problem in the HW division is talent being wasted/not utilized properly than it outright sucking. WTF are guys like Rivas, and Dinu doing? :huh

    ...made him quit with a bevy of fouls (forearm smashes, holding, shoves, rabbit punches, elbows) after letting Cunningham outbox & drop him early.

    Cunningham held way more than Fury, and outside of the first few rounds, Tyson was coming on strong and dominating Cunningham

    ...with fouls.

    Make them the same size in a fairly officiated contest, and Cunningham beats him 10/10.

    Make them the same speed and Fury beats him 10/10 times

    See how silly that sounds?

    You're blessed with the gifts you naturally have, some size, some speed, some power, its the hw division, there is no size limit, both men know what they signed up for.

    Exactly, it's the heavyweight division. Cunningham is a cruiserweight.

    ...and he still almost knocked out Fury, and outboxed him early, and only lost because the much bigger man roughed him up with fouls with a very permissive ref on hand.

    And who made a 6'3 Cunningham move up to the hw division? He caught Fury with a huge overhand right, but let's not forget he dropped Mansur as well. Why discredit Tyson for a hard fought win?

    Has a better resume than Parker and Joshua combined

    At 42! :lol:

    ...and he didn't at 40. ;)

    He turned pro when Parker was still in nappies and Joshua had yet to grow ****s.

    Be as that may, if we go back to the original point, it's absolutely ridiculous to confidently say that Joshua or especially Parker beats Tyson

    Has already beaten solid heavyweight contender Juan Carlos Gomez with a disgusting first round knockout via glancing blow.
