      i do believe that many people havent seen nunn when he was the best pound for pound in the world. to say roy or anyobe else beats him so easy , like by a wide 120-108 decision is wild!!! there was nobody at the middleweight classs other than roy that was like nunn. at middleweight, like when roy jones fougth hopkins, i think nunn beats em. matter of fact, you dont think that nunn that beat sumbu and tate would easily beat hopkins at 160?

        Roy Jones always had problem with southpaw and Nunn is a good southpaw that will cause Roy Jones into trouble.

          JuyJUy.........i wanna say fist off that I was ahuge Michael" Second to " Nunn fan whe i was like 12-13 watching boxing as a yound dude. i stil have a few fights on tape. He was really rangy with good movement and I think that a lot of people overlook his great timing and placement of punches. catching people on the end of his jab. All that being said, Roy in his prme really blew me away with his speed, power and anticpation that allowed him to really hurt people if he chose too. I think that this is far froma a blowout but I do give ro the slight edge by no more than three rounds. Would have been a very cautious fight for roy but I see him doing enough to get the Win. Clearly you think Nunn wins this but I am giving this analysis just so that you can see that I have actualy seen Nunn fight. I am a fan. Can you see my rationale even if you dont agree with it?

                    Nunn was a great fighter no doubt about that but I agree with the poster that said Roy in his prime would've boxed a cautious fight in route to a UD. I see the fight being a chess match like he fought against Hopkins. I still believe that Roy didn't peak at middleweight but at super middle. I saw on the poll that Ice Man thinks that Nunn would've won. Scully's sparred with Roy & fought Nunn as a pro; wow!!!! Ice Man you have to explain your pick!!!!

                      Nunn at his best would have been very competitive with RJJ. I agree 100%. A tall rangy guy with great movement. He could've hurt Jones. ON the flip side I think RJJ was a freak at Middleweight. I don't know if Nunn could contain RJJ. RJJ's speed was a blur at this weight.
                      I see this fight breaking down to a type of "fencing contest" to see who could lead off and then counter the counter. At times Nunn would match RJJ but ultimately RJJ would belt him with the left hook.
                      I think Nunn would get hit with the left hook and go down for the entire count. But it would be very entertaining while it lasted.

                      You have to go all the way back to Hagler to find a Middleweight conqueror to RJJ.
