    Steve, you should have knocked the man out and removed the judges from the equation..but wait, you aren't much of a puncher. You are an undersized heavyweight. I watched your fight with Glazkov, and while you were moving around a lot you didn't do anything to win that fight. In fact both of you were stinkers and the fight should have been called a draw.

      why are people screaming robbery? i had Cunningham winning by a round. He faded late and was getting caught with clean punches. Although Cunningham was pressing the fight he failed to land anything significant towards the end of the fight.

        I agree with the last 2 posts. I personally didn't think he got robbed. A robbery is when you clearly win a fight and still not get the decision, for example Cave vs Escandon. In this case the fight was close, and i think a draw would have been more satisfying. I thought Cunningham was doing okay in the early portion of the fight, but as the fight progressed he slowed down and Glazkov was landing the harder shots, probably even stunning Cunningham. Glazkov finished the fight strong. Perhaps there were some rounds where Cunningham slighty outlanded Glazkov, but Glazkov maybe landed the harder shots, and the judges might have given the round to Glazkov due to that reason, in reference to the compubox stats that indicate Cunningham outlanding Glazkov.

          Steve has an incredible story and would love to see him get a payday, but neither guy should be fighting Klitschko. Fight was horrendous.

            Cunningham deserves every robbery he gets. Does anyone remember when Troy Ross dropped him and was winning the fight easily, and was the mandatory and Cunningham ran around the ring and raised him arms like he won he fight, over a cut caused by a thumb poke? Then he never granted Troy a rematch. Cunningham is a clown

              How about his last fight vs Mansour??? Mansour got robbed of the KO victory. Cunningham was out for more than 10 seconds and Smoger gave him like a 15 count.

                Didn't watch this fight. It looked boring as *** so I can't comment on whether it was a bad decision or not.

                Fans have become so tired of bad decision that they've become apathetic to them. We can't even be arsed to get outraged any more.

                  And Amir Mansour knocked him out, but shady old Steve Smoger gave Cunningham a long count and helped him survive the round.

                  Cunningham has been helped by the officials, but whenever he loses a close decision, he whines and whines about it.

                  He's a poor sport and a crybaby.

                    yea,,,,Im not getting the robbery thing either. I thought steve won but it was fairly close and both guys looked lousy. now the glzkov/scott fight was indeed a robbery. scott clearly won that fight by a good margin

                      Both Glazkov and Cunning ham have no future in the heavyweight division so I could care less.
