PHILADELPHIA – Standing next to each other, it was like a wide receiver against a nose tackle. That was the eye-test disparity between Steve Cunningham, the sleek 205-pound receiver in this case, and Natu Visinia, the rotund 278-pound nose tackle.

Size has never mattered to Cunningham, though. The 38-year-old former two-time IBF cruiserweight world champion would take on Godzilla if they could find gloves large enough. Visinia wasn’t exactly Godzilla, but he did have a glossy 10-0 record with eight knockouts against a who’s who of nobodies, along with a rock-hard head and granite chin.
