    Great video. Hearns is one of my all time favourites. I just wished he had a chin like granite and he'd be the top of the list. Still, he did more than well with the skills he had. You don't like Hearns? You don't like boxing:D

    That phrase is inaccurate most of the time it is used, but in this case, it's likely true. This truly was one of the greatest punches of all time. I remember it like it was yesterday.

    no fighter has everything tops. That is what makes boxing great. Can a fighter get to the other fighters weakness. With Hearns it was always a matter of can the other fighter take Hearns punch to land his own. It was tough .

    I'm with Zak on this. I detest the use of the phrase, "that punch woulda KOed anybody", but there are a handful that just might have. Marciano/Walcott and Robinson/Fullmer are two more.

    When it transitions to the Hagler bout, best part of the whole video.

    I gave this some thought and I stand corrected on this statement because the right hand was a continuation of the body shot, making it a combo and not a one punch knock out as originally stated by me.:bbb

    My favorite KO of all time, great job iceveins. By the way I really enjoy your boxing highlights.

    And for those who say that slowing down a video captured by old cameras always looks blurry :

    Its easier to see in the original footy.
    If you are slowing it down extract the frames and rebuild.
