Steve Cunningham goes crazy on ATG radio after being disrespected (EPIC AUDIO !!!!!)

[THE REED]

The funniest thing is the guy who called him out has had a pro fight (not successful, but he's been in there) so that USS insult goes out the window.

No it doesn't.... he said who are you to tell me? He's still a nobody. Who'd you beat? Nobody. When was your last knockout? Never. What have you accomplished in this sport? Nothing.

Rufus just wanted his 5 seconds of (questionable) fame.
As for Tyson Fury vs Cunningham: when I watched it the first time, I didn't think anything was illegal, but of course I understand what Cunningham says. Of course you can make a case for the knockout being somehow illegal, but then again, Fury wasn't elbowing him in the face. You can go to any Ricky Hatton, John Ruiz, Wlad Klitschko (leaning, clinching) or Hopkins fight and make a case for disqualifying them for clinching. Those kind of fouls are illegal and they happen all the time, basically in every fight.
I think Cunningham was winning the Fury fight and then Fury started leaning on him and within 2 rounds all of Cunningham's energy was gone. Fury was tiring him out with those tactics; was it illegal? Yes. On the other hand, Wlad Klitschko and many other boxers do the same thing all the time.
Even the Rigondeaux-Donaire knockdown would be illegal somehow: Donaire pushed him away and then landed the left hook which knocked Rigo down. I mean, you can go through every fight and find 30 illegal things.

90% of fights are stop start ****fests because fighters get away with breaking the basic rules of boxing constantly. There's more wrestling in boxing than in the WWE.

He was definitely fouled and I can understand why he is upset about it, especially after having a win taken away from him in his last fight.

I do not think anything will come of it though. We have seen lots of stuff like that taking place over the years. Sometimes weird stuff happens in a fight.

[Dr Rumack]

Agreed.

Steve whinged post-fight and he got called out on it and didn't like the truth.

Fact is, he was hurt from a Fury bodyshot and was getting KO'd anyway. Ref helped him enough as it is, took a point off Fury and wouldn't let him work the inside.

The funniest thing is the guy who called him out has had a pro fight (not successful, but he's been in there) so that USS insult goes out the window.

Him and his trainer are whining like hell. You'd have to be pretty deluded to dispute that.

[Weltschmerz]

Cunningham is obviously too butt hurt to just take his defeat like a man and admit he's got no business in the HW division. Truth hurts.

RA Rugged Man disrespecting Floyd Mayweather
Now this guy disrespecting Cunningham.

Little trend here.

Rugged came at Floyd hard and it wasn't cool to jump on him like that as soon as he got on the phone, but he did point out some facts and basically implied, 'Floyd you're great enough to beat these guys, just fight them.' He should've went about it in a kinder way tho.

This guy was just disrespectful. Illegal tactics are illegal, there is no sugar coating it.

The truth is fighters like the one in your avatar use illegal tactics constantly to give them an advantage.

[FlatLine]

There's a difference between a reason and an excuse.

Now, not to say USS wasn't on the way out soon anyways, however, what Tyson did was definitely an illegal foul to setup a knockout blow.

It depends on your point of view - everybody's reason for a loss could be called an excuse - and vice versa. I'm just surprised Steve is complaining since ****m trains Hopkins who has been accused of "dirty tactics" for the majority of his career.

The forearm was illegal but the actual knockout shot was perfectly legal and I don't think the forearm was responsible for the fight ending in a KO - I think it would have happened eventually either way.

So because his trainer trains a "dirty" fighter he shouldn't complain when he is a victim to one? Would Fury have landed that punch without the illegal forearm? It's doesn't matter what you think might have happened only what did.

Was that the pr1ck himself who answered ''got knocked out by J'Leon Love'' so proudly to USS asking him what he had achieved to question him ?
