    Would last longer than 3 rounds yeah. More competitive too.

    A few extra pounds though won't cure Tommy's chin and stamina issues and MH will still be able take TH's punches, walk him down constantly and get a stoppage.

    Hagler was too big for Hearns at MW.

    Let hem both put on a stone of muscle and Hagler is still too big for Hearns.

    Hearns has bigger frame, i doubt that 147-154 pounds was his natural weight because he was skin and bone, at that weight he was drained but he could carry more weight than hagler being effective. At lhw hearns wins vs a beach ball hagler. Actually i think that 168-175 was the natural weight of hearns, simply he had to cut weight to be especial with his size advantage in lower weight classes.just like ricky hatton was actually a natural stocky 175 pounder( himself said it), his frame was very robust, simply he was too short
