      I have a feeling Mansour knocks out chinny Cunningham.

              it will be interesting as Mansour has looked good at times but when he fought Maurice harris he had moments he looked vulnerable against a boxer. Cunningham is faster then harris. It's hard to pick a winner because Mansour has good power but Cunningham can box & has lots of experience. i'd actually have to pick USS. Mansour is in his 40s & is the one stepping up. both will be in good shape & the loser is probably done.

                  I had to do a double-take when Cunningham referred to himself in the third person. I never figured him as the sort of guy who does that.

                  This is an interesting fight to analyze and handicap, but ultimately it doesn't matter that much. Well, I suppose if Mansour wins, he will get to fight someone in the Top 10, so it's relevant in that sense. But Mansour probably won't win, if Cunningham relies on his superior boxing skills (deteriorated though they might me) and doesn't get ******. Quickness-wise, Mansour is not a 19-y.o. Tyson

                      Cunningham wasted too many of his prime years as CW titlist fighting once a year, every ten months, etc. His promoter (whomever it was) had him on the shelf too much. But I guess that relative inactivity is extending the tail end of his career...

                      Speaking of promoters, Kathy Duva seems to be ubiquitous lately.
