    Cunningham would have to be carried from the ring when it was over, and I'm not talking like George Foreman was after ko'ing Frazier for the title.

    This was Fury's first fight in the US,the fight was to introduce him to the American public, he wasn't a channel favourite at all you cr*tin!

    Fury is from Manchester not Ireland , dough nut! Cunningham was kod by a right hand, watch the fight you fool!
    Feldman's score at the time of the ko was 55-55 a draw the other 2 judges had it 55-57 55-57 for Cunningham so just a 2 points difference. No indication of corruption what so ever! Its just what you always say when a result doesn't go the way you'd like!
    Feldman, is like Cunnningham, American
    You really are a nonsense!

    A tune up fight? Fury had 20 fights under his belt and was unknown in the US,it was an introductory fight to the American boxing public. Cunningham was ordered to lose is that why he knocked Fury down?
    Listen STOOOPID. Frampton is from Belfast so he is a British Subject!

    Glasgow is in Scotland and Celtic is the premier Catholic team in Scotland! Frampton is a protestant !
    Fury was born in Manchester Lancashire UK and lives in Wilmslow Cheshire UK! I watched the fight live ,but,unlike yourself I knew what I was watching!
    Not only are you totally ignorant of the sport, you are seriously unhinged and inhabiting a universe with a population of 1.
    Why don't you move to the General Section, your amusement value here has seriously deteriorated!

    Sonny Liston would tell his trainer to keep the car running, this won't take long.

    Hypothetically speaking, if I was a radio contest winner of a ticket to the Liston/Cunningham fight, would I be arriving back home in my driveway by the time round 10 would have started if the fight had lasted that long?

    Huck's a dangerous proposition for anyone under 220.

    I thought the Tarver fight was a legitimate draw. I was quite disappointed in Cunningham's performance that night actually, considering how predictable Tarver's gameplan was. He kept wading in and walking onto Tarver's counter rights when it was clear he was having far more success when he hung back and boxed. In the end he made the fight a lot closer than it should have been and was a little lucky to get the draw IMO.

    Not sure I agree with you about the Fury fight. Fury used a lot of roughhouse tactics, and an illegal blindside to knock Cunningham out, but the tide of the fight was turning by that point anyway, and it was only a matter of time till Cunningham got knocked out.

    This. I like Cunningham and his athleticism, but he's shown he can be bullied into submission, which would make him tailor made for Liston.

    His resume if the robberies were omitted would read quite respectably. It's not his resume that loses him this fight but the fact that he couldn't withstand sustained pressure.
