I'd go with a 4' mower for a Cub. I have a 5' on my Super A and if I force it hard the mowing looks like someone had their hair cut with a broad axe. I've never seen my Super A starved for power on my mower, however in 6" to 8" grass it will warm the engine as much as any work I do with my tractors. I find if the mower gets a bit dull this is worse plus it will warm up belt and pullies on the mower drive. Having said the above, and knowing the Cub only has 10 hp. Bear in mind also if you live in a area with annual rainfall under 20" your grass will not be as thick and lush as we get with 40" of rain. I know in a dry spell in this clay ground we have, Super A would probably run a 12' mower. If your in a low annual rainfall area, the Cub will probably do ok on a 5 or 6 foot mower.
