Yea but the threads asking for defensive fighters that hit hard, I thought nunn hit pretty hard when he committed to punches
He wasn’t featherfisted at all, he had above average power and dropped super middleweight world champion whilst he (Graham) was washed, so he was above his natural weight class and 38 years old and still dropped the best super middleweight at the time in Charles Brewer
Yeah, but if he had no power at all he would not have made a dent in Brewer and wouldn’t‘ve dropped him at all
Well his upper body/ head movement was extreme, and it took very good fighters to land many meaningful punches on him. But I would admit he was known more for his flamboyant style, heavy punching and ko's than his defensive skills I guess.
Not really. He was caught hard and often. But yeah it was wild and he’d try to evade punches by a foot rather than skilfully slip inside or outside them
I've not re-watched his fights as I'm not a particular fan of his, so this is by memory from when it was on live mainly, but I can definitely remember him staying in the pocket quite often, slipping a punch and coming back with his own, normally harder uppercuts, hooks etc. Can't remember him getting beat up too much, like sustaining much facial damage, maybe in the Barrera fight? I could be wrong on that last point though. Also, I'm pretty sure any knockdowns he suffered were of the flash variety.
