    How do you pick Nunn when he lost at SMW to a 21-13-2 fighter at SMW?

    What were Nunns big SMW wins?

    What were Nunns big wins in any division where it wasnt a fighter who had come up from a lower weight?

    Why do you pick Nunn when looking at the form line below in that Nunn
    - lost to Toney who lost to Jones who Calzaghe beat
    - lost to Rocchigiani who lost to Eubank who Calzaghe beat
    - lost to Liles who lost to Mitchell who Calzaghe beat
    - lost to 21-13-2 Little who lost to Liles who lost to Mitchell who Calzaghe beat ???

    Exactly how I see it. If Calzaghe wanted these fights badly enough he would have chased them like Moore did Marciano and Johnson did Burns. He would have shamed them into fighting him; but Joe wanted no part of them. If Calzaghe fought the best in their primes, he would have at least 3 losses on his record.

    I am not ducking, unlike Joe.
    Styles make fights and I think Nunn could out slick Joe.

    Your form line is silly because it overlooks the time when Joe beat certain fighters.

    He chased all those fights until he got to the airport than his fear of flying took over :D

    There only was 1 title back then.

    Those guys straight ducked Calzaghe.

    Think about it, who was the only unified champ?
    That right there answers your question.

    Nunn wasn't quite the same post-Toney.

    The '88 version and the one who fought Curry and Toney was as good as anything I've ever seen.
