La scie téléspectateurs que Cunningham contrôlé le combat et a atterri sur Vyacheslav Glazkov dans huit des douze rounds avec jabs étant pratiquement même et Cunningham atterrissage plus de coups de puissance de l'ordre de 123-84.
En tout, Cunningham sur jeta par Glazkov 208 coups de poing et à lui atterri 180-144 au cours des douze bataille ronde.
“Les numéros, la perception, la vidéo, rien de cela réside,” a déclaré M. Cunningham.
“Regardez les stats. Regardez son visage. The man spit out his mouthpiece three times because he really had no answer for what I was doing to him. I was hurting him to the body. His corner even pleaded with him that he needed a knockout in the final round to beat me. Somehow two judges gave him eight rounds and another gave him seven. Why bother fighting if this stuff is going to happen? I outworked him, à lui atterri et le battre dans tous les sens possible. He was considered the puncher coming into the fight but as the fight progressed it was me walking him down trying to make him fight.
“Quand les fans se lasser de toutes ces mauvaises décisions? What can the fighters do about that? It has to be the fans that pay the money. Look at my rematch with Tomasz Adamek and now this fight. Maintenant, Je devrais être un challenger obligatoire de se battre pour le championnat poids lourd du monde, mais à cause de ces terribles juges, Je dois réfléchir à mon prochain déménagement.”
