    Not saying Nunn was big like Leonard, but Jones wasn't bigger than him - he was hidden away on PPV and in Pensacola, and lacked charisma (as did Nunn).

    Umm hate to tell you but I thought Nunn beat Liles.
    And it was a close fight.

    I think I scored it a draw. Nunn found a second wind at 175 it was looking like. He said he was weight-drained at 168.

    Yes Hamed was a huge star, but Jones has 365,934 views for his bout v Calzaghe while Nunn has only 448 views for his title defense v Starling on youtube.

    That`s not what McCallum said when giving his prediction for the first Watson fight and Mike really needed a big money fight.

    What did McCallum say then? Because Eubank was unknown in April 1990 and Hearn wasn't going to pay Mike what he wanted because he brought nothing to the table - no TV, no fans.

    Kids today know what a legendary fight that was, kids who weren't even born for decades after that.

    Forget Nunn, Starling, Jones and Calzaghe - Hagler & Hearns are the greats!

    I think the vast majority clicking on Calzaghe-Jones are Calzaghe fans. This thread is regarding Nunn v Jones at their bests

    Your posts simply never make sense
