What I’m saying, is that you’re just comparing stats. Yes, Roy got knocked out more than Nunn did. But that doesn’t automatically mean that Nunn had the better chin does it. Roy got knocked out because he was incredibly vulnerable. In some of his losses, he was defenceless against big power punches. Nunn was taken out by Toney at MW. So imagine if he’d been smashed by that shot that Tarver landed at LHW. Imagine him being hit flush by Denis Lebedev and Enzo Mac, shot, in his 40’s, up at CW. That’s the point I’m making. I wouldn’t say that Roy had a glass jaw or that Nunn had a better chin. Nunn just kept himself out of harms way. He retired before he was shot. He didn’t fight big punching LHW’s and CW’s who clipped him.
Nunn did stand right in front of Toney instead of moving. Jones bounced around the outskirts, whereas Nunn just held ring centre and dominated
He did. However, I saw Roy take a few decent shots when he was younger. I don’t think that we can automatically claim that Nunn had the better chin, just on the grounds that Roy got knocked out more. It’s not as simple as that. If Nunn couldn’t take what Toney gave him, then he was never surviving the shots which knocked Roy out.
Tough to say. 160 was Nunn’s very best weight while Jones was just getting started there. Probably a good fight but I wouldn’t be surprised to see Nunn get a decision under those circumstances
Roy damn near clowns him. Nunn was a paint by the numbers fighter with good, not great, talent. Roy was a Rubik's Cube formed around generational talent. Nunn can't answer Roy's questions because no one he met before has ever been good enough to ask them.
In this one Roy is - 200 .... Meaning .. get your cash out and put up the 2 grand .. make your $1000, collect the 3, and call it a day
