    My thoughts exactly! Besides, by 1991, there's no way Tyson would have been able to get anywhere near 200lbs. Most I reckon he could have got doen to was 210lbs, not a lb more!

    He weighed 216lbs for Ruddock 2 & looked ripped to shreads, in great shape! He could not lose much more weight without it effectig his performance.

    Hearns must have been drunk at the very least when stating his intentions of such a bout!

    Tyson did not have the mental makeup to overcome the psychological advantages Hearns had -- who always delivered when it mattered most.

    I agree,Danny. There is no way that Tyson could get as low as 200 lbs.

    I guess that's pretty much what Hearns figured too.

    Kidding aside. I wonder how tyson would hold up if he was connected by a right hand from Hearns that just happened to be the best punch he ever threw,that would even rival the one that connected with Duran? outside of that Tyson would feast on him quickly.

    "Myke" would win by a knockout a few seconds after the ref says "let's have a clean fight..touch gloves".

    Pound for pound Tommy Hearns is a greater fighter than Tyson -- if they weigh the same, I don't see why Tommy doesn't win.

    Hearns chin shatters the first time Tyson lands flush on it, regardless of weight.

    Wow! never knew that!

    Hearns may have a better chance than people think seeing Tyson losing all that solid weight would make him so weak it would be incredible! but probably Tyson.
