Roy Jones Jr vs Michael Nunn

When Jones asked Levin to contact Barry Hearn to try and face Chris Eubank, all through 1991 and 92 with the offer that NBC would televise from London and launch Eubank in America if he won, Eubank finally replied around July92 with 'tell him to fight Tim Littles(WBO mandatory)'.

"Chris gets nothing from me. When I was coming up, trying to make a name for myself, he wouldn't give me a shot. Oh but now he's at the end of his career he thinks he can make some money off Roy? I don't think so."

-RJJ 96

 

I don't think Nunn would have been able to do much against Jones. Jones by KO.

 

Wow

 

Too many fights back then just never happened. We're still arguing whose fault it was 25 years later.

How many times was Nunn KOD? How many times was Roy KOD? enough said

 

Great article.

The problem was, he was still in the same place 2 years later.

 

He’s obviously exaggerated, but Roy could have knocked Nunn out.

What happened to Roy later in his career isn’t really relevant here.

Yes, Nunn didn’t get knocked out. But then he didn’t face world class LHW’s and CW’s in his late 30’s and 40’s.

 

I think TBooze would like this thread

 

Thats a rare clip...eubanks stated on several other clips i saw back in the 1990s that he wouldnt fight nunn and toney..but i greatly respect u putting this clip up...its,a,suprise to some of us but the video doesnt lie!

 

This one could happen yet. Mike got out of prison. I read he is signing for a kickboxing match against another geezer.

 

That's the Mayweather fan ill informed way of thinking. Unless you're trolling the guy, this particular way of defeat doesn't even come close to formulating the outcome to a hypothetical fight!!
