    Cunningham beating Huck in Germany was decent but I am not saying it was America best overseas victory. I just wanted to give Cunningham a mention for showing ambition to fight anyone and anywhere.

    Decent sized southpaw.

    Ring magazine described him as "A smart boxer with a stiff punch".
    Cut too easily however and I seem to remember a lack of head movement.
    Beat-
    Autofermo x2
    Kevin Finnegan x3.
    Lost a close one to Mustapha Hamsho and was battered by Hagler and Tony Sibson.

    It was a great effort against a decent fighter and a horrifically racist crowed.

    Yeah, I need to look into the cirumstances of that fight a little more, from what I've heard it was all quite unsavoury.
