Good action fight
I've got a shitty stream for this, Cunningham down twice in the 4th round, but he's coming back to make a fight out of it, except for the KD's in the 4th, it's a fairly even fight after 8 rounds, Cunningham coming on.
I went back and forth before this fight thinking that Hernandez was either going to KO Cunningham early or get UD'd by a wide margin because of his stamina problems. Looks like I'm wrong even when I hedge my bets :p.
Was Cunningham down in the 1st as well ?
Whole lot of close rounds...couldnt argue with it going either way...
Hard to score fight, i've got Cunningham up by a point after 11 rounds, but the Judges might have Hernandez ahead because of the 2 KD's in the 4th rd. Last round, then the decision.
Oh, it's a Sauerland promotion? My prediction is 118-108 Hernandez on at least two cards then. Most corrupt entity in the most corrupt sport in the world.
was going to give the 12th for uss thought pablo was leavin to much on the table but then went all out and had uss on the brink...so perhaps lean more to pablo gettin the nod
Either guy better not scream robbery or anything cause that was a hell of a close fight...never mind those scores are pretty ridicelous but I guess pablo got all the close ones
Damn good fight, Hernandez retains his Crusierweight title by scores of 116-110, 116-110, and 116-111 a UD. I thought it was a much closer fight.
These guys on boxnation are pretty intresting
Ain't that the truth.Quote:

Congrats to Hernandez! I wouldn't mind seeing a 3rd meeting
I have only seen the last round of the fight and have yet to watch all of it but the last round was awesome. Steve will never get the decision if it was close which is unfair. Hope Cunningham keeps going, he reminds me of a young Holyfield, incredibly fit and a heart of a lion.
There will be no way they will put Hernadez in with Steve again.
Steve is 35. Frankly, it was a tough loss for his career. Steve needs a win over a guy like Lebedev or a rematch with Huck in Germany and another win to remain relevant.Quote:

I'm wondering who either of them fight next. Antonio Tarver? (wouldn't be surprised)
Yes if he beat those guys then he can get a 3rd fight with Hernandez, I got a feeling Steve can come back and win.Quote:

Masternak, Warsaw, Poland, also looks pretty good so far. I'm not too high on Lateef Kayode. Huck departed for the heavyweight division. El Diablo, although I'm somewhat a fan, is passed his best. I'm sure you're familiar with Lebedev.Quote:
