    Come one, come all. Send in your light heavyweight, contender or champion, to beat Steve Cunningham. Send in Mike Quarry or send in Yvone Durrell

    A great many Light Heavys would beat him. Spinks, Charles, Moore, Moorer, Saad Mohammed, Roy Jones, Gene Tunney, Bob Foster, Qawi, Jack Dillon, Beterbiev, Bivol. Too many to count. I think even Yaqui Lopez may have finally picked up his belt if Cunningham were in the other corner. Maybe not Mike Quarry. But, if Cunningham stepped up and fought Jerry, he would get his ass kicked.

    True. But, I think that says as much about Fury as it does Cunningham. Don't get me wrong, Cunningham was a good fighter, and seemed like a really good guy. But, he was not spectacular in any way. Including power.

    Numerous would whoop Cunningham

    Tarver ran him close and gave him a swollen eye.

    Cunningham is big but has no power and weighs around 210 he's not too big as long as we are talking about atg light heavyweights like Beterbiev
