    Nunn. He was nearly as fast, much slicker, much rangier, much busier and never off-balance.

    Hard fight to figure. I have to go with the guy who proved more in his career. Roy. Roy by SD like someone else said.

    Nunn . Just as much as left handed as Tarver , at least as tall and quicker than Tarver . Nunn would have outpointed James Toney if he wasn't as drained as he was against him . Nunn outgrew 160 but didn't move up in weight in time . If he had , it was possible that he'd have remained unstopped 2 this day .

    The Nunn that fought Frank Tate would be very tough for Roy Jones to deal with, but I suspect Jones would find a way to win. He could edge Nunn by a point or 2.
