Steve Cunningham vs Antonio Tarver

Steve Cunningham had a great fight with Adamek

 

USS was trying to land it on twitter last night, Magic Man doesn't seem to want it.

Comfortable win for Cunningham anyways.

 

Cunningham is the best CW in the world...if he wants it...dammit i want to see Huck/Cunningham 2...and a host of other Cunningham fights.

 

Would this even be in the states. I thought USS was fighting exclusively out of Germany nowadays?

 

Huck will never get back in the ring with Cunningham unfortunately.

 

Cunningham knocks Tarver out late IMO. Steve needs to fight more regulary!

 

Cunningham gets massively overrated IMO. He's decent, no doubt.

He probably still has enough to beat Tarver, but U.S.S has done nothing since getting floored numerous times by Adamek and his inactivity worries me.

A rematch with Huck should be his main priority: A lot has happened since then, but beating Huck again should put him in the frame to fight the 'best' in the division again.....oh, yeah that's Lebedev atsch

Tarver is hideous nowadays. I imagine Cunningham will beat him fairly comfortable, assuming he is at his best form of a few years ago (or not far from it)

 

What the **** is going on with Cunningham?

The guy fights about once every blue moon

 

Hes not been doing much since his fight with Troy Ross, But USS has a win over every current belt holder, so I dont see how anyone could overrate him:good

Hes more likely to be underrated by the maericans actually.

 

I think people are overrating Cunningham an awful lot here. He was on his way to a clear loss against Troy Ross and Ross deserves a rematch. I think Tarver beats Cunningham but dont think the fight happens. Hasnt Tarver said hes going back up to heavyweight next

 

You'd have to think Tarver wouldn't be able to keep pace with Cunningham and would lose on points. Would be a great little jab war though.

Thankfully no one has shat on the cruiserweight division on the thread yet.

 

What are you basing that on?

 

Before I'd seen that fight, with everything I heard on here, I thought I would be watching Steve Cunningham get schooled for 4 rounds, KD'd, then saved by a ref stoppage. What I actually saw was a close fight, without much at all splitting the boxers, a flash knockdown which didn't cause much damage at all, and a very good cut stoppage at an appropriate time. People massively overrate Troy Ross's performance in that fight. I'd favour Cunn over him in a rematch personally.

 

Cruiserweight is a **** division. It's competitive, between average fighters.

I've seen him fight, regardless of the guys that he's beaten, I just don't think he looks particularly good. Even if he beat all the current crop of fighters, I'd have to majorly impressed for me to still refer to him as only 'above average'.

I really don't like Cruiserweight though :good
