    Let's not forget Hagler had an excellent chin for a middle weight! Hearns started at Welter and managed to stun Hagler! Hearns brought his power up nicely but, at welter he could bang with the very best. The man flat out put people to sleep with one shot! Cuevas and Duran! Come on! Not just anyone can drop fighters like that, let alone top fighters like Duran!

    Just because you bring up Julian Jackson, doesn't means Hearn is not a great puncher. The same as just because SRL is great doesn't mean Duran is not

    Ok,lets say for instance there is a dvd,tommys greatest ko's
    Who,even approaching great has he knocked out.great bangers reach the elite and keep knocking them out,tommy didnt.
    People go on about how hebrocked the **** out of hagler,well show me where hagler is rubbery legged or trying to clinch or on his toes,he wasnt,he stayed in the pocket,kept throwing and broke his heart when he was still snarling firing away.
    Sorry if that offends people
