    Big Truck is about to hit an ice road. ;)

    The skill disparity here is almost obscene. Every advantage except power belongs to Steve.

    I have to agree, though I am a fan of both.

    I like both guys but Braithwaite shouldn't get near Cunningham. The fight should be and easy UD for Cunningham maybe scoring a KD or two in the process.

    I think it's almost a given that Braithwaite will taste the canvas. If Hernandez could catch him with a looping shot, Cunningham's accurate combinations are going to take their toll, later if not sooner.

    Props to Braithwaite for more or less resurrecting his career. He looked like he was going to wind up as a journeyman nothing but managed to KO Yoan Pablo Hernandez and finds himself going up against Steve Cunningham for a mando shot. Props to him.

    I remember when Big Truck was thought to be the man at Cruiser. I was really excited before his fight vs Mormeck. Sad to see where he's at now.

    Yeah I thought he was gonna run though Mormeck myself...... Then the Jones fight and it went all down hill from there.

    Of course USS should win, but Big Truck can still crack with his right.

    Good fight for Steve and Nazim to prep for Adamek II.

    Guillermo Jones, now there's a "milk carton" champ. Has anyone seen him or know what his plans are?

    Wayne is durable and has more natural punching power than Steve..... If anyone scores a KO, it'll be Wayne..... Cunningham a more skilled boxer who in the Adamek fight showerd that he has toughness... Wayne's been in wars and is a guy that fights hard....

    HOWEVER~!!

    Adamek made Cunningham fight HIS fight.... If Cunningham makes that mistake in this fight, he could find himself on the floor.... Cunningham has all the tools to clearly outbox him, just like he should have outboxed Adamek.... But he didn't.... And the same could happen in this fight....

    I pick Cunningham by UD.... If a Knockout happens, it'll come from Braithwaite...
