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...

World ranked cruiserweight BJ Flores is preparing for a busy 2009 as he looks toward battles against either world champion Tomasz Adamek or former champion Wayne Braithwaite.

“Right now we’re in the negotiating stage for two possible fights," said Flores. "Either I go straight to fighting the newly crowned champion Tomasz Adamek for an optional defense or I fight Wayne Braithwaite as part of an elimination process for the IBF title which Adamek just won from Steve Cunningham.

There was a good show at the Sparkassen Arena in Kiel last night with IBF Middleweight Champion Arthur Abraham putting in a dramatic finish to knockout big-hearted American visitor Elvin Ayala in the twelfth and final round to retain his title for the seventh time.

Ayala showed good boxing skills in the early going but began to absorb withering fire by the middle rounds when the champion began to close distance and fine range.

Abraham landed a picture perfect right hand in the fifth to canvas the challenger but could not improve upon his work to end the bout at that time. Ayala battled back but simply didn't have the power to keep Abraham off. More...
