    Damn i just noticed 4 typo's as i cross threaded some lines. Looks like that detailed analysis on these non heavyweights is going to be needed!

    8.5 is generous for a fighter with a 28% stoppage win ratio, who fought aggressively, took punches in order to deliver his own and punched in high volume.

    To me, Hearns is an 8-10, the 10 being the perfectly placed right hand, other than that he's between 8 and 9.
