Comments Thread For: Cunningham-Mansour Finalized For April 4, NBC Sports

This is a HW match up I've been looking forward to. Mansour gets his last big chance at world level.

Interesting fight. Fast light boxer against big puncher. The only thing that goes for Mansour is power and weight but Cunningham is chinny so it will be interesting to see if Cunningham can avoid getting hit. Mansour by KO or Cunningham by points.

I was thinking the same things as you point out. I'd go for Cunningham on points, but if Mansour catches him it's probably 'night 'night....

If Mansour wins, I honestly wouldn't mind Wladimir giving him a title shot, if Mansour is allowed to leave the US.

this is a very good fight and i can see the winner fighting adamek vs Glazkov

adamek/glazkov vs mansour/cunningham = voluntary wlad tite shot

Mansour finally stepping it up! Somewhat.. I think Cunningham will be a good test but he's definitely seen better days! Putting Delaware on the map!

Yes, because the gateway to the hw elite is through blown up cw USS Cuningham....

Hell yeah,, this will be a great fight, and will show how good or legit mansour is.. I dont think mansour is that good,, he is too slow and crude for top level, but he does have a good chance at stopping cunningham

Really? I'd figure you'd like Mansour. I think he has underrated speed and we already know about his heavy hands, I like how composed he is in the ring as well. I'm picking Mansour in this one, I just don't think Cunningham has enough to keep Amir off of him, also Cunningham has been gassing a lot lately. I expect Mansour to stop him around 8.

Sad that his biggest fight has to he vs a man from the gym he attends.

Philli fighters get shafted.

Where you got that funny Broner-Avatar from? I want that picture in big!

Another KO victim lined up for Mansour, LMFAO !!!!

Seriously though, Cunningham has skills, but Mansour will make it very uncomfortable for him with the bell to bell pressure. Cunningham's chin is suspect too.

I laughed when I was watching the Price fight and the pre-fight interviewer made sure that Mansour knew that his opponent was 6'7". Mansour goes, where I'm from...it doesn't matter whether someone is bigger than you .

Mansour went out and pummeled Price worse than Wilder. Richardson will have Cunningham well prepared, but I just dont think he can go in a street fight with Mansour for more than a few rounds.
