Tate's career was perfect until he fought Nunn. He was technically very sound but Nunn and Virgil Hill were just a "bit better"

He was a pretty good fighter actually. Most of the fights that I've seen him in were losses though. I remember him being outboxed by a middleweight who most probably don't remember by the name of Lindell Holmes ( no relation to Larry .) I think I also may have seen his fight with Virgil Hill at lightheavyweight.
