Michael "Second to" Nunn vs Sugar Ray Leonard at 160lbs

Could the Leonard that beat Hagler beaten a Prime Michael Nunn?

I think not.

Nunn by decision.

 

Gotta agree with you here, Sly. Probably pretty clear, too.

 

Nunn by clear UD.

 

I also like Nunn, but I think the reverence aspect is in play here. He's needlessly cautious in the early going, gives away a round here or there, & the judges do their best to be impressed by Leonard's flashy spurts.

Nunn, closer than you guys are projecting.

 

I think they meant in what actually occus. (minus judges giving Leonard rounds out of "appreciation")

One judge scored Norris-Leonard 116-110 ::

 

I'm saying I think Nunn contributes to the fight being closer as well, not just the judges doing their utmost to take it from him.
