I watched it on youtube and although the quality isn't great and you can't see whether everything is landing, Nunn didn't do enough to win in my...
Well, he had a successful style, quick-moving counterpuncher, using his footwork and handspeed to outbox opponents. The Roldan fight was an...
I hate to admit I thought Hector Camacho, Jr. would win a world title...until the Leija fight.
Yeah, I think that's true about the weight. He was drained against Toney but you have to figure Toney was also drained, so it evened out. He...
Maybe, but he's always had long gaps in his career, the Brewster fight is an all-time great battle that came after a year and a half layoff. It...

I've been going back and watching some of Nunn's fights. Obviously he pitched his career and life away with drug use/dealing and not being able...
Brewster was brutal, but Liakhovich also gained weight after the Briggs loss, a fight he was winning until the knockout. If he's in the 230s I...
Remember all of those. Whatever you say about his personal life, Lamps and Bernstein are the two best boxing commentators for my money.
Money and/or opportunity. Emanuel Augustus is famous for this.
Briggs was no better in 1996 than he was in 2006.
Tyson ko1 is just plain stupid. It's highly unlikely that anyone would ever ko Toney in one round. Iron chin and the ability to slip punches...
I think "top notch boxer with excellent skills" is inaccurate. Tyson was a bob and weave power puncher with no jab speak of and really no plan B...
I've often wondered this myself. You'd still have the potential for 10-8 rounds, etc. factoring in, but particularly in shorter fights, 5 or 7...
Wow, I missed that. Hopefully he overcomes and continues to box should he so choose.
