    at 147 SRR ends it in 5...his chin and durability are the key advantages over Hearns, and SRR would make it a slugfest once he realizes Hearns' boxing ability...but at 160 it becomes much harder for SRR, and i'd pick Hearns...

    I say yes, especially if Hearns gets full extension on it. SRR didn't have the world's greatest defense and he's been drpped by far less powerful, less accurate and slower punchers than Hearns.

    It's definitely possible for SSR to go down, but he wouldnt stay down, and that, again is what seperates SSR from just any other pug.

    IT ALL DEPENS ON THE WEIGHT. aT WELTER i like srr mid to late rounds

    But i think light middle-middle tommy (82 to 86) has a great chance

    As highly as I rate ray robinson, he never fought a boxer - puncher with a great reach like Tommy

    I still fancy 'The Greatest' on most nights
