Amir Mansour vs Steve Cunningham on NBC April 4th !!

[Dark Lord Al]

Cunningham is a good cruiser weight fighter , lose 6 pounds and he could give it a go at CW.

I agree but he is at the end of his career and wants to make some big money.

True, but he could be champ at CW , even he knows he cant punch with the biggest of HW'S also he showed in the fury fight he has little power and gets mauled , and tires as he is only 206lbs.He doesn't stop people at HW he hasn't got the power.
At CW he would be a force.

I think he makes more money losing at heavyweight than he does as champion at Cruiserweight. At the lower weight he had to travel at heavyweight he can stay at home.

Pretty much nailed on buddy , however it isn't good for his health getting knocked down at HW.

That is true but I see him as having speed, being brave, a lot of heart and great fitness .

If you were in his position you would want to look back at your career and say at least I tried at heavyweight and failed than stayed at cruiser weight and do what he has already done.

He has better resiliance at heavy than he did at cruiser. Adamek couldnt knock him down at heavy but could hurt Arreola.

What about Adamek v Cunningham - the rematch.

I think Cunningham would make a good first defence for the WBC title and he would have a genuine chance of winning it too!

Mansour had to win this one. Just had to. Because now the door is left open for Wilder to bomb Cunningham out and make a fight with Mansour null and void for Wilder- and hence, Wilder escapes a real HW test.

Mansour is back at the middle pack of the contenders in America. He has to fight BIG now- BIG as in another HW top flight guy. No other way this can turn up for him within the next year or so if he wants a title shot.

Can Mansour honestly be deemed a legit test when he just came up short and one dimensional in his own. He should fight a guy like Gerald washington but hes not in the top contender mix now. He's as wild as the iceman thawed swinging clubs but Wilder would have deeper issues with some experience and actual boxing ability though it would be fun to see how he reacts when a guy steps forward in the ring, any fighter for that matter.

I'd pick Wilder to KO Mansour as he ran in wildly winging wide punches.

Say that five times fast.

I thought Adamek was considering retirement after his last defeat?

It will be a competitive match.

I've felt for a while that Adamek has been fortunate to stay a top contender after contentious wins of Cunningham and Chambers. How far do you think Cunningham can go in the heavyweight scene Master? Bearing in mind he's 37.
