    The 88-89 Nunn vs the 93-94 G-man. IMO G-man has a pretty good punncher's chance, but I'd tend to favor Nunn to clearly outbox him to a UD.

    Id favour a Mclellan ko I dont think Nunn could take his punches through all the fight and Mccdlellan has some good boxing skills himself

    I agree. Nunn was a combination puncher, that would present openings for Mclellans bombs and he would probably knock him out. Nunn was a better fighter but the style matchup would favor Mclellan in this one.

    If the fight lasts rounds, the McClellan express would run out of gas in my opinion. He would have to get the job done inside 6 rounds, and somehow I struggle to imagine him doing that.

    I'd lean toward Nunn being extremely cautious and respectful of McClellan's power and outboxing him to a decision. Not a fight I'd bet on though, McClellan certainly was capable of one punch destruction. But I don't think McClellan had the mobility to hang with Nunn in general.

    .......I mean the mobillity to cut off the ring against Nunn. Think he'd be chasing all night.

    Could you believe that McClellan actually once lost to Dennis Milton?
