9th to Cunningham. The announcers are influenced by the crowd IMO. There will be 1-2 rounds more for Cunningham then they think.
Cunningham can´t take a step backwards. Adamek can´t fight really well going backwards. But he needs to cover up or hold, when Adamek attacks.
I have a feeling Cunninghma will hurt Adamek with a combination very soon. Seemed like Adamek felt his punches a bit more in the 10th.
I started watching in the 6th and I thought USS controlled every round other than the one he went down. How did you guys have it early?
Adamek by a couple. No fucing way did Steve control barely any rounds. He may have won a few, but control? No way.
Samartino (Rhode Island) 114-112 Cunningham (boo'd) Stewart (New Jersey) 116-110 Adamek Rashada (New Jersey) 115 -111 Adamek
.......on boxpicks on facebook i had Cuningham by decision cos i mistook Adamek for the guy Cunigham has already fought twice......:doh: very good fight.....one of those that surprises you cos expectations aren't so high beforehand....i guess some credit has to go to Cuningham for that although his game plan should've been different.......dunno if it quite made fight of the year......but it is right up there
yeah, it'll have to be....and why not....there isn't a great deal of other fights out there at cruiser anyway......i think these may be the best two
:: you think cunningham would've been knocked down? no fricken way. cunningham obviously has fragile hands and pulls his punches - his glove of coice is proof of that.
Too bad this didn't happen 4-5 years ago, a fight betwen Adamek and Vassiliy Jirov would have been an all-time classic.
B.J. Flores is the IBF's #2. Huck, Wlodarczyk, Braithwaite, Drozd, Tokarev, Alexeev behind him. There's some good fights in there.
ironically, i think if cunnigham tries to box more he gets knocked out. adamek can't fight going backwards. if he's allowed to stalk cunningham at his own pace we'll see something like pavlik/taylor.
Shaun George. BTW, it looked like Byrd was there tonight in the ring with Cunningham. I don't think Mormeck has fought since the Haye fight.
:: and there's some guys at heavyweight who could make 200 and be successful imo. for example, minto. toney.
