    You know who's tight?

    Steve USS Cunningham

    I have never seen anyone who seems to care less about where a fight takes place.

    Early in his career, as an undefeated prospect, he went to South Africa to fight Sebastiaan Rothmann in his backyard.

    Then he gets a shot at a vacant title against Krzysztof Wlodarczyk in Poland and loses a decision (is this decision controversial? I heard it was, but I'm not sure, I haven't seen it).

    Then he takes a rematch against Krzysztof Wlodarczyk and goes back to Poland to do it. He wins on points.

    In his first defense, he goes to Germany to fight undefeated Marco Huck in his backyard as well.

    Finally, he fights Tomasz Adamek in New Jersey, in front of a huge Polish crowd...

    This guy really is a road warrior, and seems to give it his all when he fights.

    Boxing needs more guys like this.

    I like Cunningham. It's too bad the guy has zero power. The fight with Adamek was crazy. I'd like to see it again.

        He has more power than people think... he did hurt Adamek who has an iron chin. It did take a million shots, but...

        He also KO'd Marco Huck, who isn't a bad fighter at all.

        He's definitely not a lights out puncher though.

          I became a fan of Cunningham in the Adamek fight. He deserves much respect.

            wow didn't know that - theres only a handful of fighters who have travelled a much as him (winky and kess spring to mind). the fight with adamek was a thriller just a shame that they didn't have a rematch.

                The three of those fighters can't really steer the cruiserweight division wrong in any way. All 3 are class acts.

                  I could see him beatin Adamek in a rematch. If Adamek don't fight Bhop, they need to scrap again.

                    Cunningham and B-Hop both wanted a fight in Philadelphia or AC for a little while, but then the Adamek win took over that possibility. Maybe that fight still happens, Bernard did discuss the possibility of fighting at least 2 more times.

                    But then again that probably won't happen unless Cunningham fights for one of the straps very soon. Or at least fights somebody! Too old to be fighting once a year.
