    If this fight gets made and DK once again works his magic with MSG, I put DKP up there with Top Rank as the top two promoters this year, no doubt. His refusal to unify heavyweight belts aside, DK has been doing some great things for boxing lately. Kudos.

      Mormeck has to fight David Haye or he'll be stripped of his WBC title (and lose his WBA Unified Championship).

      Mormeck would make easy work of Cunningham if they did fight.

        I'd love Mormeck-Haye as well, I admit I forgot about that possible matchup. The cruiserweight division has to be the least hyped division north of 120 lbs.

          Mormeck vs Haye

          Forget about Cunningham the best two in the division are Mormeck and Haye. This would be an excellent fight and trust me somebody is going to get KO'd in this fight and I think it's going to be Mormeck, Haye has Power and excellent Boxing skills. Cunningham should look towards Maccranelli although he is fighting Wayne Braithwaite next.

              King has both Cunningham and Mormeck, so that fight is easy as pie to make for him. Plus, it's unification, so the winner would give DK the leverage in Haye negotiations.

                  Doesn't Mormeck have to fight Haye before then end of September or lose the WBC title? How is he going to fight Cunningham and Haye in the same month? Unless he doesn't care about the WBC and will vacate it to Haye then fight the Brit for both the IBF and WBC titles.
