    Hearns is one of the toughest style match-ups for either Floyd or Pacquiao. Leonard and Hearns both give Floyd and Pacquiao nine shades of hell at 147lbs.

    I dont think Manny would beat a prime Morales so hes not beating a prime Hearns. Great jab, great right hand, and in their prime is Pacmans worst nightmare.

    He'd be laying on the floor like Dwyane Wade at the end of Game 2

    Not only was Hearns great, he was at his weight without touching weights. A natural 154 pounder has edge over guy who slowly works up to that weight.

    Everyone here knows that it 50% chance for both. Both skilled and can finish. We will never find out.

    Pac doesn't do that to guys he knows can hurt him with a punch. Like Oscar and Mosley.

    There is no way Manny would fight the same fight against Hearns. He fought that way because he bashed him during the fight and he started show boating too much. He would move around the ring more like he did against Del a Hoya.

    IF Hearns boxed properly at range then he would win a UD or late stoppage. If his pride took hold of him and he decided to blast Pac out there, then i can see Pac possibily stopping him. Strange saying that especially against a 6ft 1 fighter, but his chin was rather suspect at times and Pac has shown a very solid one moving up, taking solid shots against Cotto, Margo, Clottey and Mosley.

    I can also see Hearns beating Floyd in a UD too with that big reach and speed.
