    I love Hearns, but that chin is going to be a liability for him against any big puncher. It was distinctly average. Leonard is actually harder to beat on a head to head because his chin is insane, and though his attack isn't as good as Hearns its amazingly awesome too. Pac and Floyd wouldn't be doing too good against Sugar Ray.

    remember how Barkley stopped Hearns and then Duran showed how it was done putting it on Barkley in an awesome fight as an old fat man? Well I think Hearns could lose to lesser fighters.

    After seeing Mosley go down from a Pac shot, I think there's actually a fluke chance that Pac lands on that chin. Its just extremely unlikely. but Hearns could easily lose to a lower skilled guy like Julian Jackson (ie - anyone with a deadly punch) and there are stranger things happening than a sneaky fast Pac shot catching someone who might be chinny.

    ask yourself who has a better chin and punch resistance: mosley or Hearns.
