Nah he would've gotten slept if he took a right hand from Joe Smith Jr. Hearns has many attributes but a good chin is not one.
That chin thing is a little overrated. It is not a black or white thing. Hearns would still have to be hit clean, and someone has to hit him clean and not get hit, regardless of weight. It matters which Hearns it is, but your comment sort of show that you are partial to fighters of today.. which is fine..
I just don't see Hearns surviving the round if he got tagged with a flush shot by Joe Smith at light heavyweight. I've seen Hearns hurt too many times at the lower weights. But that isn't to say Hearns isn't a good LHW. I think he'd beat Bivol more often than not
He had a glass chin. Beterbiev would have to find it though. I just do not think much of Beterbiev a a fighter.
Hearns was shaken to his boots by tiny Roldan and KTFO by crude Barkley. Beterbiev is an amateur world champ who fought at 200 lbs. Hearns would be lucky to make it to round 6.
nothing more to be said than. Bivol is an all time great after his win over Canelo.. That is all it took.
Unless Hearns wins early (which is definitely possible), it's Bivol with a 8/10 stoppage. So I'm split !
