Re: Middleweights : Thomas Hearns vs. Michael Nunn
Very nice match ! Nunn gets to Hearns late and stops him. Maybe Hearns would win a decision in a ten round bout.

Nobody out boxes hearns, Leonard couldn't Virgil hill couldn't and Nunn couldn't it could be a chess match or a one round blast out but hearns wins.

Both fighters were 6'1" in height. I lean on The Hitman by decision.
Re: Middleweights : Thomas Hearns vs. Michael Nunn
Great match - Hearns wins it. I lean towards points.
Re: Middleweights : Thomas Hearns vs. Michael Nunn
If they fought around 1989, Nunn by SD.
Re: Middleweights : Thomas Hearns vs. Michael Nunn
I think Hearns wins by decision or ko. Hearns was beaten by SRL,(the 1st time 2nd I thought he won),but most of his other losses were against big strong fighters and Nunn isn't that. Hearns was just as fast and equal in reach i think but much harder puncher and I think Hearns takes Nunns punches but Nun cant take his.
Re: Middleweights : Thomas Hearns vs. Michael Nunn
Hearns beats Nunn. Hearns is an ATG so would be expected to beat an elite operator like ‘Second to’.
Re: Middleweights : Thomas Hearns vs. Michael Nunn
If it's 88 Nunn is a bad matchup for Hearns. He's a fast lanky Southpaw with better reflexes than the Hitman by then. Nunn by KO in 4 or 5 rds.

Hearns' middleweight best years were from 1981-87. He fought at middleweight sometimes when he was a Welterweight and Super Super Welterweight.
I still lean with Hearns to beat Nunn by decision. That if is the Hearns of early 80s.
