Part 11: Boxer Michael Nunn: If Mike Tyson Does What He Does, He's Going to Obliterate Jake Paul
Part 1: Michael Nunn on Boxers Hating Trevor Berbick for Beating Up Muhammad Ali
--------
Former boxing champion Michael Nunn shared his thoughts on the greatest boxers of all time. While many might point to Floyd Mayweather’s impeccable 50-0 record, Nunn respectfully places other legends like Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Robinson, and Sugar Ray Leonard on a higher pedestal, indicating his old-school preferences. However, Nunn did acknowledge Mayweather as one of the finest fighters in recent decades and revealed that he is also one of Mayweather's favorite fighters.
When discussing a hypothetical bout between prime Muhammad Ali and prime Mike Tyson, Nunn gave the edge to Ali, provided the iconic heavyweight could avoid Tyson’s power-packed punches. Reflecting on Tyson's prowess and his shocking loss to Buster Douglas, Nunn emphasized Tyson’s defeats often stemmed from underestimation and complacency. Nonetheless, Nunn valued the legendary status of both Tyson and Ali, appreciating their enduring impact on the sport.
