    I think Fury stops him late. USS doesn't sit down on his shots enough and I don't think he'll get Furys respect.

        This will be the first good Saturday afternoon for boxing we've had in many weeks.

        Fury-Cunningham (NBC, Channel 5)
        Szpilka-*****ko (PolSat)
        Cleverly-Krasniqi (BoxNation)

        And a couple of fringe contenders coming back after a loss:

        Chisora-Avila (BoxNation)
        Ustinov-Perkovic (INTER)

        Chisora says he wants to fight David Price later this year.

          Cunningham will be pulled out by his corner after taking a beating at the hands of a much bigger man.

              Fury winning via decision with the fight looking like his against Johnson just Cunningham having a lot more success.

                And NBC commentator Benjamin "BJ" Flores scoring it for Cunningham and creating controversy.

                  I think it could be a fight where the rounds are kinda close depending on what fight Fury fights. I was originally going to put some money on Cunningham but he was robbed in his hometown against Adamek, so a draw is the better option.

                  I'd like to see Ustinov-Fury next, I don't rate Ustinov highly at all but it's an interesting style match-up.

                    I think Cunningham's movement will see him have some early sucess. He doesn't carry much power though so sooner or later Furys pressure will catch up to him due to Fury being a much bigger guy.

                      No, this fight will resemble anything but the Johnson fight. Cunningham is not defensive savy as Kev Johnson and he'll be there to win rather than merely an 'opponent.' Also, there's added pressure on Fury to impress the American television audience as this is his debut on U.S. tv.

                      I think it plays out with Fury using his superior size and reach advantage to wear the much smaller and lighter hitting Cunningham down enroute to a mid-to-late round stoppage. I think Steve lands some clean crisp shots on Fury but I think the size advantage is much for him to negotiate.
