    What's peoples take on this fight?

    Hernandez based in Germany where the fight is, does Cunningham risk losing his title here?

    Looking forward to this fight.

    Very hard to predict what's going to happen. It's been a while since we saw USS in action and Hernandez looked good in his last fight. I'm still favoring Cunningham but if the odds are right a modest wager on Hernandez might not be a bad idea.

    Not expecting a robbery in any case, as I think USS still has a fight or 2 on his Sauerland contract.

    Hell of a fight! Hernandez has still to demonstrate if he really belongs to the cream after his chocking defeat against Braithwaite!
    We will see lf he can handle the speed of USS and has put aside his defensive lapsuses. If not Cunningham will expose him badly ...

    Interesting to see...
    USS is experienced, has good stamina and uses his reach well. He should beat Hernandez.

    I think Cunningham wins it something like 116 - 112, 117 - 111. I can't see KO there. But I'm not sure if it's worth to bet some money on this one. Odds on Cunningham are too low unfortunately.

    Surely Hernandez is the taller of the two?

    They're both around the same height I believe. Neither is substantially taller than the other.

    Hernandez has an inch in height but Cunningham has longer reach.

    One of the underrated fights of this fall.

    Cunningham seems to be in decline and Hernandez is a young talented fighter, who despite not having a title might be the 2nd, 3rd or 4th best fighter in the division. His coach (Wegner) says that he is the best fighter in the divison. We will see.

    I think it will be a close decision in favor of Cunningham, but an Hernandez-win would not shock me.
