    I've always went on record stating how i just don't see Hearns winning this. Robinson' attack is too good imo. Hearns' attack is amazing as well, but at 147 he's wild with it, and he' never had a great defence. Robinson by stoppage for me every time. I don't see any scenario wherein Hearns puts on a clinic and wins via that route.

    Just watched the Dykes fight and it is a great showcase of Robinsons inside fighting and body punching as duodenum said. On a sidenote is it just me or does Robinson throw his right hands to the body with his fist inverted? I've never seen any other fighter throw it like that.
