    Has anyone heard about this - a source of mine said there has been talks about hearns himself saying he wants one more fight and emanuel steward to train him.

    Please let me know.

    And if this were true and he does come back whats the best name out there you think he could beat at this point? (I heard itd be another cruiserweight bout, possibly lh)

    I hope he stays retired man, he's a great man and was a great athlete and proved everything. He's a little bit punchy now. Yes the rumor is true, but Manny Steward doesn't want to train him there was a news on the scene of boxing about that

    He's been with Manny for years, I can't see him going ahead with Steward in his corner, and Manny definately won't train him.

    Not to mention nobody will give him a shot, nor would it be sanctioned.

    No ****. Thats cool he would want steward to train him, but i agree with stewards decision, with not wanting a part of it.

    But i have to admit, theres something about hearns coming back, and actually winning against someone half decent, that my imagination would enjoy, if that makes any sense.

    Thats for the info fellas

    I read an article where Tommy himself had said he wanted one more fight and wants Manny to train him. Manny has said recently he doesnt think Tommy should and didnt say he would train him, although Tommy said with or without Manny he will try to get 1 more "Title Shot" he didnt specify what weight.

    Ohh, I was just told of him having 1 more fight, but nothin about him wanting to have a title shot. Ehh i dunno, he might be able to beat a halfway decent journeyman at this point but for an actual belt, even the worst any of the belt holders could crush him. He's 50 or so wtf

    What about Enzo. He can redeem himself with a celebrity win or lose and become a HS gym teacher.

    I'm a Hearns fan . . . he's now 51 . . . so forget it.

    If he wants to fight one more time . . . give him a six rounder exibition fight. :yep

    No Point to this at all, look at Riddick Bowe, Holyfield, Hell even Jones, their all making their previous records look like complete crap by fighting on and embarressing themselves in the ring.
