Cunningham should stop whining, I don't care if he got forearmed into the corner or not, the ref didn't call it, play carried on and he got smashed.

Nothing to do with becoming exhausted and trying to fend off a huge fella that's mauling you? That's complete garbage.

Yeah had absolutely nothing to do with psychology and everything to do with physicality. For what it's worth, you know that a man of Fury's size is always going to exploit his height and weight in whatever way he can, so Cunningham should have been ready for that. Nonetheless, it was a brave effort so to have an amateur-hour dj disrespecting him like that after the event has got him understandably angry.

The interview would have been far more entertaining if they were in the same studio. Oh, hang on, no it wouldn't, because the bloke wouldn't have had the temerity to speak to him like that.

The forearm was weird. Fury clearly did it but I wondered why Cunningham wasn’t moving away from the arm then…it was all over…

Thats what i thought but Cunningham was clearly hurt and tired and hence too dazed to move he was on his way out the US commemtator said he thought Cunningham was finished literally a second before Fury caught him with the right.

The interviewer was a disrepectful dick ed. But it was funny to listen to. To say Fury got in his head like the interviewer did is completely different. Fighters expect other fighters to bad mouth and especially with Fury, it's tounge in cheek. The interviewer was just being a twat

The interviewer is Rufus Defibaugh, and is a journeyman

To be fair to him though atleast he has had a pro fight! Whilst he's pretty atrocious he wasnt just being an armchair fan.

worse than an armchair fan. If anything he should have had more respect. Cunningham should have been more selective than to get involved with a 2-cent production like this. This moron is getting publicity of the back of Steve Cunningham's good nature, which isn't right. Professional fighter? He's been about as close to being in Cunningham's bracket as my nan, the tosser.

Fury's arm-raise looked even worse in slow motion, it certainly wasn't a legal boxing manoeuvre. I wouldn't be surprised if we haven't heard the end about that. And that dick on the radio, not sure whether it was Rupert Dickhead or the other guy couldn't even correctly identify which hand he hit him with.

I think it was the upercut to the body about 15 seconds before the knockdown that finished Cunningham. he took a huge one to the gut, then one to the noggin on the ropes, then the forearm strangler.

Gotta give it to Fury, he is in some great fights. I really hope he gets the winner of Price v Thompson.

There was a rumour kicking about that he was going for a rematch with Matthew Ellis, the first billion dollar athlete.

I get the point you're making and its very valid. I was talking in the sense that he's been in the ring so he's experienced how tough boxing is. Its true though actually that he should understand even more so Cunninghams predicament because of that.

He posts on here, right? BOTP and CS...

for me it was an illegal move blinding steve with the forearm then hitting him with the right hook,pushing all fight long leaning all fight long he was using illegal moves to get the win. im with cunningham on this one.

He doesn't just post on here, he's the OP of this thread.

I once saw a delibrate head butt in a fight. Honest.
Lennox Lewis forearmed Bruno's head ready for a finishing uppercut. Should be made a NC.

Almost makes you a better man than Cunningham really doesn't it.

Match? Please.

You had no amateur experience and, as I recall, you obtained a 'licence' through the post just by filling in a form and sending it in with some dollars.

You are as much a pro boxer as Charlie Zelenoff is.

But weirder.

Seems that Steve USS Cunningham is more than a tad upset with having lost to Fury, and is more than irate if anyone so much as says Fury beats him fair and square. This is a clip from one of the biggest meltdowns in Internet boxing radio history which happened last night. BTW, Cunningham is also filing a lawsuit and petition to the New York State Athletic Commission to over turn the decision (as he claims Fury used many illegal tactics in the fight) and is wanting the referee to be punished.

You made a complete and utter fool of yourself there Rufus. If you'd have been face to face with Steve you'd have been kissing his arse.

Real fighters like USS Cunningham deserve respect

It was all in show on my end. It was part of an act, and some of it was real. My opinions were real, but the tone, the attitude, etc was the act. Had we all just sang koombaya and held hands and kissed Steve's ass it would have made for a boring interview. Out of this, we get to see a side of Steve Cunningham I dont think anyone else has ever seen. Don't take it too personal, I was originally in the pro wrestling business and was just playing the heel. HOWEVER, I think what I proved in a sense, is if a little nothing peon like myself could get Cunningham infuriated, its really no wonder how Fury got inside his head and eventually knocked him out.

I didnt realise that was you.
