Cunningham, a true patriot and so proud to have served his country, said of the opportunity to broadcast to American servicemen and women around the globe, "I'm really looking forward to talking with Michael from Philadelphia Boxing Report again. I have such an admiration for the young men and women serving our country. Many already know, that I started boxing in the Navy, so any opportunity to get to connect with those enlisted, I jump at the chance. I hope to visit some bases in the future, but being able to reach out via radio is a great start and truly an honor." Cunningham is in good company. Past guests on the Philadelphia Boxing Report show include: Vladimir Klitschko, Burt Sugar, Al Bernstein, Larry Merchant, Evander Holyfield, Roy Jones, Ray Boom Boom Mancini, Manny Stewart, Lou DiBella, Tim Witherspoon, Chazz Witherspoon, Bernard Hopkins, Bob Arum and many many more. Mike Cassell, the host of the Philadelphia Boxing Report, spoke briefly about the show, saying, “The show is my way of giving back after the death of my cousin during the 911 attacks. I do it for the men and women who love freedom and serve our country, and for those who love boxing like I do.
