  • IBF Middleweight Title (5th defense by Nunn)



Michael Nunn overpowered Donald Curry with a storm of blows and then floored the challenger in the 10th round last night to retain his International Boxing Federation middleweight title in Paris. Nunn caught the tiring Curry in a corner with a flurry of 15 blows without a reply. Curry dropped to his knees and Referee Denny Nelson ended the fight. Nunn, who won the title from Frank Tate two years ago, is unbeaten in 36 fights. Curry, 29, slipped to 33-4-0. (Associated Press)
