    Hearns actually hurt and stunned Ali in that session, bit out of order throwing your goodnight punch if you ask me.

    That's when they all arrived in the Bahamas for the Ali-Berbick fight. Hearns fought Ernie Singletary on the undercard. It was just a couple months after Hearns was stopped by Leonard. Maybe he was trying to impress the reporters snapping pictures by teeing off on the shell of Muhammad Ali?

    Not cool. Then again, that's what happens in boxing when you're an old "name" and you stick around too long. Young fighters try to embarrass you.

    Just goes to show you, Hearns at that weight almost certainly had the power to hurt or knockout certain heavyweights, he caught Ali with a peach.

    Also a shame that no one has any footage of Dokes sparring Holmes, or Shavers, when he was their sparring partner.

    A shame that there's no more footage of Holmes sparring with Ali, that little clip on When We Were Kings looks very tasty indeed.
