Former IBF cruiserweight champ Steve ‘USS’ Cunningham’s dreams of regaining the IBF belt from the man that took his coveted title were shattered on Monday when Main Events boss Kathy Duva announced that Tomasz Adamek had relinquished the crown.

The IBF reacted quickly to Adamek’s resignation by announcing that Matt Godfrey would be the next available for the vacant title and ordered negotiations to start for the fight with Cunningham. More...

Since the convincing victory over former WBC champ Wayne ‘Big Truck’ Braithwaite, at the IBF Cruiserweight title eliminator at Sunrise, Florida on the 11th July, there has been surprisingly little news coming out of Steve ‘USS’ Cunningham’s camp. More...

Former cruiserweight king Steve "USS" Cunningham took a huge leap towards regaining his coveted IBF championship belt when he convincingly outboxed former WBC Champ Wayne "Big Truck" Braithwaite to take a well deserved victory.

By doing so, Cunningham returned to the top of the IBF rankings earning him the right, as mandatory challenger, for the long overdue rematch with current champion Tomasz Adamek, who took his crown by a close split decision victory last December in what has gone down in the annals of boxing history as the greatest cruiserweight fight of all time.

Gone last night at BankAtlantic Center in Sunrise, FL were former fly and super flyweight world champion Vic Darchinyan's usual advantages of height, strength and power as the Aussie hard man moved up to bantam to challenge IBF titlist Joseph Agbeko.

Filling the void was the taller, stronger and bigger punching Agbeko, who had refused to be intimidated by Darchinyan's trash talk during the long media campaign leading up to last night's clash.

Agbeko also refused to be moved a single inch by the force of Darchinyan in the ring, handling the southpaw challenger's bull rushes with good footwork and counters, with a solid chin that held firm whenever the overhand lefts and right hooks of Darchinyan connected. More...

Promoter Don King Productions confirmed that the fight will take place on the undercard of the Joseph Agbeko - Vic Darchinyan IBF Bantamweight title fight at the Bank Atlantic Center, Sunrise, Florida on July 11th. More...

The upcoming battle between two former Cruiserweight World Champions, Steve ‘USS’ Cunningham (IBF) and Wayne ‘Big Truck’ Braithwaite (WBC), is a mouth watering prospect.

WBC Cruiserweight Champion Giacobbe Fragomeni puts his world title belt on the line for the first time when he meets ex-IBF Champ Krzysztof Wlodarczyk at the Gran Teatro tonight in Rome.

Coming off an eighth round technical decision win over previously undefeated Rudolf Kraj for the vacant WBC title last October, former amateur standout Fragomeni, 26-1 (10), is ready for his night in the spotlight.

And at age 39, Fragomeni doesn't have any time to waste.

The Milan based hard man gave European champion David Haye all he could handle in 2006 before a ninth round cuts stoppage and Fragomeni is the favorite to turn back the ambitions of his Polish opponent tonight in Italy's largest city. More...

None other than legendary ex-heavyweight boxing champion of the world Smokin’ Joe Frazier has said of British featherweight Marianne "Golden Girl" Marston, “She’s going to be the Champ.”

Joe's son and former heavyweight contender Marvis Frazier has said of Marston, "Marianne is the hardest working, committed fighter I have seen in a long time. She's very hard for any fighter to deal with. She's strong, fast and accurate, has lots of combinations and punches hard, so hard it's like being hit by a heavyweight."

Ex-middleweight world champion Robert ‘Bam Bam’ Hines said of Marston, “Marianne’s an exciting fighter who’s got it all. One thing for sure she’s ging to be the Champ...soon.”

Former IBF Cruiserweight Champion Steve ‘USS’ Cunningham has been so impressed with Marston that he invited her to be part of his team. More...

A big show takes place tonight at the Erdgas Arena in Riesa with European Cruiserweight Champion Marco Huck placing his belt on the line against hard punching Belgian Geoffrey Battelo in the headlining contest.

Huck, 23-1-1 (18), has been on a roll since dropping an IBF title challenge to Steve Cunningham in December, 2007, winning four straight including a European title winning effort against France's Jean Marc Montrose in September of last year.

The heavy-handed 24 year old from Bielefeld faces Liege based contender Battelo, 18-0 (15), who hasn't lost a bout since turning pro in May, 2005.

Batello has swept through the lower European ranks at cruiser with little difficulty, but he hasn't come close to meeting anyone of Huck's caliber and will definitely go into this title challenge as an underdog.

Unbeaten light middle Alexander Abraham, 23-0-1 (16), defends his EBU-EE crown for the first time when he squares off with 21 year old undefeated Serbian stylist Nikola Stevanovic, 16-0 (6).

IBF International Cruiserweight Champ Enad Licina, 15-1 (9), will look to improve upon his victory over America's Otis Griffin last time out when he faces the challenge of chinny Colombian KO artist Jose Luis Herrera, 16-4 (16).

As IBF Cruiserweight Champion Tomasz ‘Goral’ Adamek has confirmed that his next opponent is to be Johnathon Banks, this decision thwarts the efforts of former cruiserweight king Steve ‘USS’ Cunningham and his team to secure the quick rematch with Adamek they have been campaigning for.

Cunningham took a little time off from training to give his views on Adamek vs Banks. “To me, that fight could go either way," he said. "You know, Johnathon Banks can crack. He had that big fight against Eliseo Castillo and he got hit and took a big shot but came back and finished that guy.

"That’s a good bangers fight. Adamek’s got a pretty good European style with power, so there’ll be some fireworks in that fight. I want the winner! More...
