Could Hearns realistically KO Tyson circa 1990-91

I've struck a nerve here i can see.

 

So you don't think Hearns had the power to knockout Tyson, you're wrong shaggy.

 

Not really

But your posts can be so bad that the only conclusion can be that you are a troll trying to strike a nerve.

 

No I don't. At least not until he hit him with 99,999 flush right hands

 

He would only need one perfectly placed shot.

 

Hearns couldn't stop the following guys:

Murray Sutherland at 160 lbs
Luigi Minchillo at 154 lbs
Alfonzo Hayman at 147 lbs
Earnie Singletary at 160 lbs

Mike Tyson is a natural 220 lb fighter with a good chin and very good punching power.

Thomas Hearns was kod at 147 lbs and 160 lbs.

There is a 99.99 chance Mike Tyson kos Thomas Hearns most likely in the first few rounds.

 

I can't help it if you have Tyson beating every fighter that ever lived.

 

I second that.

 

How do you think a beefed up Alexis Arguello would go against Tyson wass? He had that big right hand and Tyson would have never been in with such a great body puncher.

 

I am a big Hearns fan but I don't think he could stop Tyson. Then you figure this was 1991 when Hearns was an old fighter. I don't seem him having a chance against Tyson.

 

Good question, he did knock Tyson's trainer into bolivion. It seems the peek-a-boo style was custom made for Alexis........

 

Jimmy Wilde was supposed to have the punch of a heavyweight too. He could be the lightest fighter that would get over peak Tyson provided he attacked and wasn't scared.

 

They have weight divisions in boxing for a reason.

I don't doubt Hearn could lay out some very poor heavies. Tyson is arguably a top ten heavyweight of all time. Even post 1990 he would be a dangerous challenger to anyone.

His fight with Tommy does not go past 3 rounds. I reckon Tommy would get rendered unconscious.

 

In no universe can Hearns KO Tyson.

A prime, slick footed Hearns on his motorbike might possibly outpoint an old Tyson.

FFS guys, there are weight divisions for a reason.

Next up: Mayweather vs Ali.

 

It is unclear what this thread is about.

If it is about a mythical matchup between Tyson and Hearns, it is obvious that Tyson would destroy Hearns Inside 3 rounds.This is nonsense anyway cause Hearns never fought at heavyweight.

If this is about pure power, I think if Hearns hits Tyson on the bottom with full force, he would not stop him. Hearns was a terrifying puncher in the welterweight divisions but did not have the same power in the higher weight classes.
