Nunn in his prime was being matched for 8 rounds in a boxing match with a shot and outsized Donald Curry. He took straight right after right. Granted he was outboxing Toney and beat the magnificent Marlon Starling of the late 80's in a chess match but there's too much inconsistency. He brilliantly spots a weakness in a great technician Kalambay but the next fight somewhat labours to outpoint Barkley in a close fight where he just couldnt be bothered. With Hagler you can bet he would be made to bother, and by round 6 or 7 he would be led to deep waters and than Marvin issues a slow systematic beating before stopping him in 10 or 11.
This thread reminds me of the tender, yet playful and ribald, score to 1983's Fanny Hill, starring Shelley Winters, during the scene in which Lisa Foster's nubile body is explored by the eager Phoebe, as boldly portrayed by Maria Harper. Mostly of the part with the nipple. This thread-your thread-is a perfect nipple, waiting to be hungrily mouthed, but in this instance, also literally consumed, because obviously Hagler will destroy Michael "Second To The Marvelous One" Nunn.
Did I pick Hagler already? Well, I'm picking Hagler. If Nunn thought that lazybones Toney was too much in the late rounds, well, this is Hagler in the late rounds: This content is protected
