    I think it is experience. Tommy Hearns lived his life for boxing and Ronald Hearns wanted to do it just to see what he could do. Different motivation. For Tommy Hearns it was life and death and boxing was his life. Ronald wants to do well but how can it be the same for Ronald as for Thomas?

    Hearns was supposed to have an easy fight, but did not.

    I felt sorry for Tommy Hearns because I like him, he was a nice person and a true warrior in the fight. He was exciting.

    Are you talking about Ronald or Tommy?

    It really broke my heart to see Hearns Jr. KO'd like that, Thomas Hearns is an all-time favorite of mine. Seeing his son dropped like that was as heart breaking as Hearns' loss to Leonard, Hagler and Barkley.

    I know. At least he knew to take the 10 count. He does not need this sport. IMO, you truly have to be born a fighter to succeed in this sport.
