Comments Thread For: Steve Cunningham: I Expect a Better Version of Glazkov

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

As the 38-year old USBA Heavyweight Champion and two-time former cruiserweight world champion Steve "USS" Cunningham (28-6, 13 KOs) prepares to defend his title against Vyacheslav "Czar" Glazkov (19-0-1, 12 KOs) and fight for the mandatory position in the IBF, he does it a little differently than he has in the past, but with a newfound level of strength and courage he gained from an unlikely source, his nine-year old daughter Kennedy.

For the first time in almost five years, Cunningham will be away from his family while he trains in Philadelphia with his trainer, the legendary Brother Naazim Richardson. He is staying alone in a dorm-like room at his gym, but is not bothered by it as a Veteran of the United States Navy: "I was in the Navy for four years so I lived in crowded rooms with 80 guys before; so this is alright with me," explained Cunningham.

I believe that Glazkov caught Adamek at the right time. With that said I believe Glazkov will win but, I also would not be surprised in the slightest if Steve is victorious.

This is a tough fight to call. Cunningham has skills, speed & a big heart but he isn't the biggest guy, he lacks HW one punch power & his chin can be suspect at times. Cunningham also has a tendency to be easily winning a round & then get dropped hard. Is it his concentration or his opponent setting him up? It happens in many of his fights but he usually gets off the canvas. You never know what Glazkov is going to show up. Will it be the Glazkov that beat adamek or the Glazkov who narrowly beat rossy & escaped with a draw vs Malik Scott? This is a big fight for both guys. Glazkov has time on his side but Cunningham doesn't. It's do or die for Steve...
