By the way, I think I'd give Cunningham a better than even chance to beat the following members of my top 10: Povetkin (Huck basically did it, and I think Cunningham is definitely better than Huck and has a better style to trouble Povetkin), Chisora, and Solis (especially if Solis' knee slows him down like it appeared to against Airich).
Cunningham doesn't have knockout power at heavyweight by any means, but Adamek doesn't either at a decent level of opposition, and until last night he had been a fixture in the top 5. Povetkin and Chambers don't really either, and Pulev and Chisora only barely do. At this point, it's hard not to view Cunningham as a top 5 heavyweight, even if he doesn't necessarily match up well against a lot of his peers.
