Ronald Hearns - Whats your opinion on him?

He's been improving, but I still don't see him as more than a future contender. He just doesn't seem very physically gifted and is relatively uncoordinated. If his last name wasn't Hearns, nobody would be paying attention to him.

 

Very interesting division were the current elite tend to be boxers (eg Martinez, Williams, Santos and Forrest) but with some great young sluggers ala Julio, Kirkland and Angulo. Has shown poer knocking out cans but i doubt he'd be able to dent the better fighters and can see them simply outboxing him. Woulden't mind seeing him against a C+/B- fighter like Ishe Smith or Sergio Mora.

 

That's the way to do it. Attack people for not coming in and storming the thread twenty to thirty minutes after you make it.

Intelligent.

 

I want to see him succeed, but I'm not all too hopeful.

 

I haven't been able to find any clips of his fights on youtube but for the most part he's doing well since he's undefeated. Though I think he should step up teh quality of opposition he's facing

 

So far, all I could say is, he's a better prospect than Chavez Jr.

 

I've been watching him all I can. I find him quite exciting, and he'll have his critics...especially being the son of a legend. The few times I've gotten to watch him, he blasts dudes out so fast I don't get much chance to see what all he's got. Good thread.

 

Damn straight, me too. I think he can atleast hold a title one day, myself.

 

It would make for a hell of a Bill Board, huh?

But IMO, Hearns would **** up Chavez Jr..:yep

 

He's a gatekeeper material. The Daniel Judah type.

He's C level.

 

There's a ton of upside with this kid.

It's not easy being the son of legend like Tommy Hearns but he seems to handling it well. I like his prospects.
