    I actually went out to a couple of what seemed like yuppy bars, real good looking people...I was in a cafe that was part cafe part club with blarring music-everyone was very nice looking in this place-cold as **** outside damn!

    Sorry I missed you.


    Do you remember the names of any of the bars you hit ?

      Watch the Darnell Knox KO and tell me he couldn't punch. He hit Knox with a left hand out of nowhere, Knox thought the referee had hit him.

      Nunn wasn't a consistently hard hitter and didn't possess heavy hands, so may not of been great at keeping an opponent off him with punches (not that he needed to, he just schooled them - for every second of all 15 rounds if need be, probably), but he could punch.

        Michael nunn is better than guys like graziano, pender, turpin etc. He is a legend for sure, i heard roy jones jr. ducked this guy nicely.

            Why not? He accomplished alot more than many middleweight champs. If you were thier during the era of tony zale, rocky graziano and jake lamotta, you would criticize them even more. Jake has that win over robinson, other than that nunn has a better resume. Nunn is easily a legend, its ****** to say he isnt.

              There's nothing legendary about a guy like Nunn. He was never a big name, he never overcame adversity, and he was a coke head.

                  No. Graziano is not in that class. But you won't find a film being made on Michael Nunn.

                    he is a top 20 of all times at middleweight. Everyone thinks the 1950's was the golden era of middleweights, it wasnt. The fact that a 40 year old blown up welterweight was beating everyone, shows how weak that era truly was. Jake lamotta, randy turpin, and paul pender basically made thier name off the fact that they beat robinson, other than that they arent that great either.
