    Run a search - there was a thread on this like a week ago. He's not that good though - just has no fluidity, and he probably took up the sport too late to ever do real damage.

    C-level is probably being a little harsh. It will be interesting to see how he does against Yorgey. Probably the toughest he's been in. He's definitely athletic, just needs to continue working on the technique as he steps up the ladder.

    Hearns has an excellent jab and very good power in his right hand. Hes also a very good body puncher. Ive sparred probably 100 rounds with him. To say hes C-class is an insult

    Put him in against Jamie Moore,he`s just beat a slightly faded Michele Piccorrilo in 2 rds,Jamie Moore would be a test for Hearns at this stage.

    If telling you that John Duddy would beat the brakes off of Ronny helps you then I did my job.

    He's not good enough to compete with top tier competition...But he is able enough to be competitive and possibly beat every1 below that level and if he does that he'll find himself in a HUGE blockbuster match vs a big name guy....Being undefeated and the son of Thomas Hearns helps ur case in getting a blockbuster match vs big name guys.
