Whilst I think Nunn SHOULD win and get himself a decision, GGG could put pressure on him and get himself a ko late. I think it's Second to Nunn s fight to win.. Or lose. I yo?
Nunn is certainly a level above anyone Golovkin beat, I think Nunn has the speed and slickness to win a decision. Although theres always a danger of Golovkin catching him late on, but I don't think Golovkin is as skilled as Toney was.
My first thought was Nunn could take a decision here, but I keep seeing Nunn getting blasted out by Toney so there's this nagging suspicion Golovkin might do the same thing. A prime GGG would apply more pressure also
Definitely that danger in this one. We know what G can do, as I said, Nunn should win it but he's in with a massive puncher.
There are TWO NUNNS - the cautious boxer that was hard to hit that operated behind a southpaw style and then the Nunn that didn't move as much trying to be more entertaining. Nunn was matched up with Mike Tinley a very soild pro who had beaten Robbie Simms twice and lost a disputed decision to Iran Barkley. This was Nunns first real test and it was on ESPN. Nunn EASILY Outboxed Tinley. Latter Nunn was matched up with Darnell Knox a Kronk boxer with a 27-1 record. Was on the under card of a super fight. Nunn actually brawled and looked horrible winning in the process. Frank Tate was Nunns last complete performance. After that with exception of Kalambay which lasted less then a round Nunn was just sloppy at times electing not to move as much and getting hit alot more. So if GGG was to meet Nunn at his best there is of course a punchers chance for GGG but that's about it. He isn't going to match Nunn in speed,movement or overall boxing ability. Your talking about a 6''1 southpaw with blazing foot AND hand speed with a Massive 77 inch reach.
Nunn had an excellent chin.Only stopped once in 60 fights and 3 weight classes. And that was a sunday punch
