    Watching Hearns vs Roldan now and see how the wild swinging Roldan had him hurt.

    HE was swinging at Tommy like he caught Tommy messing with his daughter or something. Lol.

    Hearns by ko, mugabi has the power but not the skills to take hearns out, mugabi was completely steam rolled by Norris who was also weak chinned, imagine what hearns would do

    I totally agree. Mugabi met some good men in Green, Fletcher, and Curtis Parker, but none of them was anything near the challenge Hagler was.

    I don't know how u do it. You always have the moderate, logical opinion and never criticized. You're one of the best posters on here.

    I do not see a shoot out between these two John The Beast Mugabi was doing well against champion Marvelous Marvin Hagler in 1986, until he ran out of gas and was stopped.Thomas The Hitman Hearns has big advantages going into a fight like this, he has height, reach, and he brings his punch with him, he rattled Hagler briefly in their short 1985 war. Emmanuel Steward is not going to have his fighter slug it out with The Beast, but instead box him until his well runs dry,Thomas by KO 11. This fight will not look like a fictional Rocky Balboa knock em down match in the least, Mugabi lacks in the stamina department.

    I think Tommy wins this fight early in one or two. I honestly do. I think getting hit by Hagler is different than being hit by Hearns.
