    I thought it was better than it actually is. Adamek - Cunningham kinda disapointed me in some ways. Fantastic to watch...but as far as actual quality work I'm not sure. The defence on show was awful. These were supposed to be the two best guys.

    It seems a matter of time until Alexeev dominates this division.

    I'm not so sure about that! Any way they have at least Ring champion now! But who exactly are their best names aside Adamek and Cuningham?

    Its a decent enough division; its definitely not as bad as HW.

    But I don't think it is the most underrated division either; David Haye's departure has left a massive gaping hole; that can't be denied; the only thing people had against Haye at CW was that he never fought Cunningham, but Steve just got his ass handed to him by Adamek, and you can't say that Adamek would have had a decent chance against Haye.

    Super-Flyweight is probably the most undervalued division IMO: Mijares isn't suddenly **** because he ran into his stylistic nightmare in Vic and decided to slug it with him a bit; you also have Fernando Montiel, Vic himself, Munoz, Navarro, Kirilov, Arce etc. Some of those names arren't elite world beaters, but they do stack the division up.

    Lebedev, Alexeev, Wlodarczyk, Jones, Flores, Bell, Huck, JMM are all HUGE names. Even more where I havent named.

    Yep.

    It was close enough but Cunningham was easily sucked into a fight he didn't need to be in; he was knocked down three times if I remember correctly; Adamek is a manual type but he made Cunningham fight the way he wanted, therefore he was owned. It wasn't Hopkins-Pavlik by any means, but it is a fight Cunningham SHOULD have won, but instead he fought the completely wrong type of fight.

    Are you trying to tell me that if Cunningham had have fought to his strengths, instead of fighting to the other guys strengths, he wouldn't have emerged as the victor?

    probably not. Steve would've won the fight without the knock downs!
