    cunningham cant even KO cruiserweights, and now hes gonna KO a big ass irishman? nah..
     
  4. Fury wins this easy. The question is how, KO or decision ? I say Cunningham's good enough to go the distance with a few scares along the way.

    Your not calling anything. Your taking a shot in the dark and hoping it turns our right because you think it will make you look like you Know Wtf your talking about. Explain why you think this will happen at least.....

    Cunningham will look good for a time but there's no way he's avoiding the giant Fury for the full 12 rounds, at some point he's gonna have to eat some shots and he will go down.

    As for Cunningham winning by KO, I guess stranger things have happened but it's extremely unlikely.

    It can happen and I would laugh my ass off if it happens, but it probably won't.

    nope.

    Fury has a chin. People see him get knocked down in that one fight and assume he don't, but that was a monster shot and fury recovered well and scored his own ko a round or 2 later.

    I think Tyson will establish himself on the scene with this fight.
    He 's so talented, it's all about fitness for this guy. If he gets that right, he will be a force.

    Fury doesn't have a strong chin. You can say it was a superb shot by Neven Pajkic, but that guy has only won 5 of his 17 wins by KO. Fury hasn't fought any guy with a superb punch yet. Cunningham has only won 12 of his 25 victories by KO, but he also doesn't have a power punch.

    However, don't underestimate Cunningham, because he is a much better fighter than Pajkic and is also able to land some hard punches. He did deserve a win against Adamek last year, and the Polish figher might be more tough than Fury.. I think Cunningham will win with a late KO or by decision.

    It wasn't a "monster shot" 'cause Pajkic doesn't have monster shot power.
    It was a well timed shot though, wich landed clean that time and landed a few times before and after. And if you saw the fight you'd know it was a clear premature stoppage in a fight wich Pajkic was losing at the time but was still very dangerous in landing the same shots.

    Fury clearly developed in a much better fighter as I ever imagined he would become, certainly after getting his ass handed to him by McD in their first bout.

    It's plausible. But not practical.

    Furys chin is at least as good as Adameks, who led with his face and ate shots for 12 rds vs Cunningham.

    Also, Fury is not about to allow Cunningham to fight an offensive fight. He'll box from the outside, and if Cunninghams edge in handspeed becomes a factor, and Tyson is being outboxed, he'll ruff it up with his big body or switch to SP.

    Im calling it Fury TKO6-8.:thumbsup

    Cunningham is gonna hit Tyson with a chair?

    Not gonna happen.


    On a serious note: I don't like this fight for Steve. Tyson is all wrong for him. This big guy moves well for a min his size. And he has high work rate. This will make it hard for Steve to do his thing and be successful with it.

    I believe Tyson will win easily.

    Maybe like Furys too slow to get out of the way and is stopped on repeated punches without returning fire

    i dont find this likely, probably Cunningham outboxes him but big Fury catches him and gets rid of him
