    Hearns, Barkley and his amateur rivals Hill and Littles, as well as Darrin Van Horn. He was verbally promised fights with all of them, apparently.

    Ok then so these said fighters fought people like Marvin Hagler, Roberto Duran, Sugar Ray Leonard, Thomas Hearns, James Toney, Iran Barkley, Michael Nunn, Gianfranco Rosi, RJJ, but were scared of Dan Schommer?????? :lol:

    Schommer was unknown, the others weren't ;)

    Why have a difficult fight with a 'club fighter' ;)

    It's not rocket science :rofl

    Yeah exactly it's not rocket science to know that Schommer was not particularly good and not worth fighting, NOT avoided.

    He showed that to be wrong by beating 40-0-2 (15 world title wins) Chris Eubank by seven rounds.

    Won what? I've just been too busy working to post all day. Dan Schommer was an overweight talentless club fighter who beat nothing but other club fighters. Eubank humiliated himself that night, and lost to the worst fighter he fought since Reginaldo Dos Santos.

    Schommer clearly had fast hands so obviously was not talentless.

    Leroy Hester was an able fighter, I remember seeing him match some top guys as a kind of journeyman-type. He beat Wilford Scypion just after Scypion fought Hagler.
