SHOWTIME Summer Sizzler Undercard Results

[JakeNDaBox]

I think that is incorrect. Aydin is the mandatory challenger to the winner(after his win of Bonsu today), the Kirpa fight I believe was not a final eliminator

you're correct, I was given bad info. Kirpa is now the #2 challenger.

thanks for the Cunningham updates
wish it was on TV

[JakeNDaBox]

Sorry for the lack of updates, inconsistent connection:

Braithwaite came back in round three, forcing an inside fight and landing enough right hands to convince Steve to clinch and clear his head. More of the same in round four, though the round could've went either way.

Round five was a good one for Cunningham, now willing to exchange in a brawl, landing a right hand along the ropes late in the round and also working the body.

Both fighters had their moments in rounds six and seven, but Braithwaite's efforts to force a fast-paced brawl backfire. He's exhausted heading into the eighth, which is all Cunningham, landing 1-2s and wicked right hands to the body.

Heading into round nine, but Big Truck looking less and less confident with each passing round.

Go USS!
Sounds like he should have it on the cards

[JakeNDaBox]

Braithwaite willing in spirit but lacking in energy. Cunningham keeps it conservative in a decisive ninth,

I took under 10.5
but I won't be greedy
just would love Cunningham to win it anyway he can

[JakeNDaBox]

Braithwaite digging deep in the tenth, but Cunningham fights behind the jab and offers enough lateral movement to avoid getting caught with anything crazy. Good action fight through ten, though with USS seemingly enjoying a comfortable lead.

[JakeNDaBox]

Big 11th round for Braithwaite, who landed plenty of leather early and late in the round. First round in which Cunningham wasn't able to get by on youth and athleticism.

Good two way action to close the 12th and the fight. In the end, the judges more impressed with Cunnigham's activity and overall effectiveness, winning 119-109, 118-110 and 117-111.
