Greater fighter: Thomas Hearns or Wladimir Klitschko

Wow. I can't believe I am the only one that thinks Wlad is the better fighter here. All of you are wrong lol.

 

Hearns would absolutely go to war with you to prove he was the better man and yes that backfired at times. Hearns had that true warrior mentality. Wlad would do absolutely everything and anything to keep it a long range chess match including holding on for dear life no matter how much the fans voiced there disapproval. That's why Hearns is loved and Wlad is not.

 

Top post!

 

I'll vote for Wlad, but that is for longevity and dominance. Hearns never dominated his era like that but he has some big ****ing names on his ledger like Duran, Benitez, Cuevas and arguably Leonard as well.

 

If Hearns was Wlad he would've been draped all over Duran - physically molesting him , sticking to him like a squid , minute after minute.

He'd have never took a fighter of Durans calibre head-on like Hearns did.

 

I was just gonna say something ...

Usually, @Flo_Raiden ’s threads have me stroking my chin as the choices are finely balanced but I didn’t have to even blink on this one.

If Wlad’s a greater fighter than Hearns, I don’t know anything anymore.

The voting in this one suggests I’m not alone.

 

I wouldn't say that

But Hearns was always going to win the poll by a landslide don't think many people were gonna disagree with that.

 

Wow you found one fight. Im so impressed!!! Your a genius!! He did this what in about 5 or less fights out of 67 whereas Wlad did this in what 69 out of 69 fights? You should be commended for your incredible research!!!

 

Don't shoot the messenger

 

Wlad and it's not even that close. At his retirement he had dominated the prestige division in the sport for 8% of its MdQ existence, barely losing a round in the process.

 

Tommy Hearns is Exile On Main St.
Wlad is Dirty Work.

 

Wlad may not be as loved as Hearns but he is more widely respected in the last decade and he does show up in a all time heavyweight list either in or close to the top 10 most the time so it's not to be sniffed at.

 

Hah! Well played, sir. Even if so, so wrong.

For a guy who understands the incoming One World Government you seem uniquely lost on the greatness of Wlad.
