This past weekend, former WBO cruiserweight titlist Enzo Maccarinelli made comments in the media that he was interested in taking on IBF cruiserweight king Steve ‘USS’ Cunningham this summer in a bid to reclaim some glory lost when he was pounded by David Haye in March.

Cunningham read the comments and issued a statement of his own.

“Enzo’s people know that my promoter Don King and Frank Warren already had some preliminary discussions. Some complications happened to slow things up.

“Frank Warren is going into the Hall of Fame this weekend so he knows what it will take for a classy champion like myself to get me over to United Kingdom.

“I just want to make the biggest and best fight possible in the Cruiserweight division.”
