    List for me how many times this freak with a suspect chin was stopped at 147 or 154.

    Then, list for me how many brutal KO's Mayweather has delivered at Welter out of all his fights.

    He also did pretty well then with his limited IQ and suspect chin to win world titles at light heavy, nearly 30 pounds north of where he won his first world title.

    Amen brother.

    Hearns knocks Floyd the hell out, Floyd trying to hide behind the shoulder on Hearns will get him KTFO and Ray would beat Floyd as bad as he did his daddy.

    Obviously Hearns and Leonard are above Pac and Mayweather but I don't think theres and ENORMOUS gulf in class like most are saying. The main issue is the natural weight differences rather than skills. BTW I don't think Hearns would necessarily KO Floyd. If Benitez hung in there, then I'm sure Floyd is at least capable of making it out alive.

    No, you're right really. You've got Floyd and Pac who have moved quite a way UP to welter, and 2 guys that went up super middle/light heavy.

    Interesting to see what Leonard and Hearns could have weighed in at with the previous day weigh in rule in place, could they have made 140?

    Floyd never shows his Heart until he gets Hit. As long as Pac is winning he looks unbeatable we dont know if Hearns is going to break Pac spirit we dont if SRL is going to Rock Floyd to make him open up.
    For all we Know Floyd Slows Ray down like he did everybody else
    Pac Overwhelms Hearns like everone else
    Hearn and Ray were great because of there heart. They put it all in the fight. The fighters today are more reserved which in result makes us not see greatness. Pac isnt Reserved however. If this article is after he started training cotto I understand his fustration but he cant act like that he knows cotto dosent want to fight no moe.

    Hearns was a much better boxer than Corrales. Taller and stronger. He would've knocked mayweather into oblivion.

    I think Sugar Ray and Hearns would be cream of the crop right now. I think Mayweather would hang and maybe even win. Sugar Ray had problems with FMS and he was not as tight defensively AND took the fight on short notice. Hearns, much like Paul Williams, is a problem for any WW in any era.

    Manny stands no chance so isn't worth mentioning.

    I know it is right.

    Like all *******s your sorry butt has nothing to say about the actual facts of the situation. All of which are true.

    Pac wouldn't hang. Roach knows it. Anyone who knows anything about boxing knows it. That is why the easiest way to get a fight with Pac is to get knocked out. He is a fraud.

    SRL, TH, or FMJ. Hell FMS for that matter. Pac can't hang with any of those guys.

    The fact that FMS fought SRL.

    Pac is the fraud. That is why he is beating on more dead horses. Cotto or Margarito. Real tough Pac. Real tough. Pac is a joke.

    So your sayin Tommy and Ray were great because of their heart, therefore Floyd and Manny have superior skill? Nice try, but I don't think so. Floyd is obviously the most defensively successful, that is obvious, that doesn't mean because of his style he's automatically doing to Hearns, (who had similar speed to Mayweather, had a longer jab, had more power than Mosley, and was also hard to hit), what Floyd did to Corrales. Hearns was beating Leonard and eventually got stopped by Leonard, who was a harder puncher than Floyd. You could say Floyd was the better defensive fighter, but Leonard was the better offensive fighter. Floyd doesn't have the height or reach advantage that Hearns had to be outboxing Leonard. Manny would probably have similar success Duran had, but because he also has a good defense, his chin hasn't really been tested yet.
