    Besides the Hagler fight ... :good

    Don't act you ever seen it happen ... don't talk like this is something new to the boxing public. Against Barkley, SRL II, Duran, and Hagler ...

    Don't take what i'm saying as disrespect to Hearns because he is an ATG ... but stylistically - he doesn't match up well with Floyd.

    He was stiff and robotic ... he had stamina issues ... he had problems with his endurance.

    this is not zab, sharmba, dlh, hatton or baldomir. we are talking about tommy hearns.

    you keep saying what pbf won't allow, but give no explanation as to how he wil avoid it

    If Hearns is robotic **** knows what a mover looks like. The guy was an unreal athlete. To even say this makes you look very stupid.

    Who the **** has Floyd ever beaten in 147 to say he has a chance with ANY of the elite's 147 fighters?

    even if this were the case it's not going to be a problem with floyd at 147 as floyd only fights in spurts at the higher weights. he is not a 3 minute a round fighter.

    as for robotic........:rofl

    U DUMB!

    I'm not comparing Floyd to any of Hearns' opponents why compare Hearns to PBF's opposition?

    Your arguement makes no sense ... this has nothing to do with opponents because these guys are from different eras of boxing.

    Floyd will keep his distance ... stay low ... and show love to the body ... He doesn't have to block it all the time -- even though he will pick off alot of his jabs and come over the top with the right ... but keeping enough distance will take some of the steam off of Hearns Jab. Have you seen PBF fight? ... he's knows how to pick off a jab.

    If you sole arguement is that Hearns will win off his jab is ridiculous ... Floyd would take Hearns into deep waters and drown him ...

    Hearns who was a power puncher at WW only having 1 fight go the distance. He had the mentality of a power puncher at WW ... thats how he got stopped in the 14th against Leonard ... his lone loss at WW.

    this is the problem with you pbf nuthuggers, you know **** about boxing, or anyone else other than pbf.

    tommy was one of the most fluid boxers in the game, far from stiff. but unfortunately you will never be able to see past pbf's nuts in order to learn that.

    Hearns first 2 losses were partly due to preparation (over preparation)

    If i were you i wouldn't draw comparisons either. Because all of those fighters would be favourites against Mayweather.:deal

    Athleticism doesn't equal great movement ... it doesn't mean that he wasn't a stand up - come forward fighter ... he might've moved at higher weights but we're talking about at WW.

    He didn't know how to tie up ... he didn't have any defense ... he was very hittable ... and do I have to keep mentioning the stamina issues?

    The speed of Floyd is far superior than Hearns ...

    How would Hearns adjust to Floyd making it a thinking mans game?

    Quick reactions, quick adjustments, offset rhythm, hitting on the move?

    Floyd doesn't have to be planted to land something effective ...

    Are we forgetting Floyd's defensive mindset?

    Just because Hearns did was he did didn't mean that he couldn't have lost to PBF. He did lose before ... and he had been knocked out a total of 4 times.

    hearns was a master boxer with power. but you 13 year olds only look at the ko ratio and think he went in to blow out his oponnent. if you actually looked at the fights rather than boxrec, you would see that most of those ko came at distance behind the jab.

    stop posting stupidity and learn smething about a fighter rather than continue looking like a fool
