Can Steve Cunningham move up from cruiser weight and challenge the heavyweight champion?

there are a lot better cruiser to heavy prospects than cunningham, USS is a finesse boxer and wouldnt bring excitement or KO power to the heavyweight ranks. plus he regularly weighs in 7 or 8 pounds under the cruiser limit, which means physically he wouldnt be suited to go above 200.
johnathon banks will be a heavy eventually and he can easily carry 220 pounds, if there is an american to watch for in this regard it is him, not cunningham -
I would like Cunningham to move up but he lacks punching power. Has a descent chin in cruiser, but most likely would get knockdown/out if he fights a top 15 heavy fighter.Comment

Exactly my thoughts, although he could fight at HW if he wanted to, just not such a good idea for him.there are a lot better cruiser to heavy prospects than cunningham, USS is a finesse boxer and wouldnt bring excitement or KO power to the heavyweight ranks. plus he regularly weighs in 7 or 8 pounds under the cruiser limit, which means physically he wouldnt be suited to go above 200.
