    Nunn UD 8-4 just too big and too slick for Eubank.

    If both were at their very best I'd favour Eubank.

    Nunn , Eubank was hopeless on the front foot.

    I'm sorry, but Eubank doesn't stand a hope in hell. He'll have to go looking for Nunn. And he fought fighters he'd have to go looking for. Reasons for this? See the Eubank/Schommer fight.

    Nunn would outbox, too slick and too big. He had a sizeable reach and would outbox the iron-chinned Eubank.

    Never seen Nunn fight but a peak eubank who beat a ferocious benn and a good boxer like watson he might win a decision. Unfortunately never seen nunn so thats pure speculation it might be bollocks but thats my answer.

    Michael Nunn with his head screwed on straight and his nose clean could KO Ali, Ray Robinson, Koki Kameda and a transvestite prostitute with down syndrome...in the same night with one eye closed and his right hand tied behind his back.

    Have I overstated Nunn's greatness? Perhaps I'm reaching a bit. But Nunn was GREAT and could have stayed great if he had his **** together. They didn't call him "second to Nunn" for no reason.

    Nunn, plagued terribly out of the ring. Inside the ring with everything 100% and Eubanks 100%.

    I would clearly take Nunn here in a lopsided decision.
