    Hearns Rejects Offer to Fight Nunn : Arum Says Fighter Spurned $2 Million
    February 26, 1988 | STEVE SPRINGER, Times Staff Writer
    Thomas Hearns, the World Boxing Council middleweight champion and the only man to win four world titles, has turned down a $2 million offer to fight unbeaten middleweight Michael Nunn, according to promoter Bob Arum. "After I made the offer," Arum said from his Las Vegas headquarters, "I was told that for no money would Thomas Hearns fight Michael Nunn. Tommy always has problems with left-handers." That, according to Hearns' camp, is not the problem.
