    Who wins? Nunn was a tall, quick, rangy southpaw who could give Golovkin trouble.

    Great fight.

    Nunn is going to make GGG look clueless in there at times.

    If Nunn doesn't switch off, he gets a TKO, IMHO. His skill-set is as fine as you could get on his best day.

    Great fight...Nunn on points but if you had the fight ten times if pick GGG to win at least a few times by ko ....as a one off fight it'd be down to the wire

    I think G’s pressure has the huge middleweight Nunn tired and taking shots late for a tko win. Nunn was as smooth as anything, beautiful to watch but I think G’s style shows up Nunns frailty

    As Eubanks Snr said when asked if he'll be fighting Nunn replied "Who needs a slick awkward 6'2" southpaw"

    Please. Nunn would put the clown suit on GG. Only question is whether or not GG could land a lucky punch

    Nunn is a fighter that had the talent to beat ANY middleweight in history but if Toney can catch him in 11 with his cement feet GGG like Hagler walks him down if he enters the ring in the same condition

    The issue with Nunn was never his in ring ability he was A+ it was his out of ring debauchery

    Ahh at last a man with Boxing Knowledge...
    NB: The fight I would have loved would be Toney v GGG.....has to be Toney, close but again as long as GGG is not allowed to get at Toneys body he is slick & capable enough to withstand GGG pressure ...whereas I doubt that Nunn could keep him off..

    Another good post. I see G folding him in half late but as Rich said, I wouldn’t be surprised if Nunn beat anyone ever if he was serious

    All I know is that Nigel benn & Chris Eubanks Snr both avoided Nunn when they held their belts...also include Toney...
