    They'd be comparable if Floyd lost twice to Maidana, once by knockout.

    No they'd be comparable if Floyd had the ***** to fight GGG. But he doesn't so they're not.

    Hearns.

    Wins over:

    Duran
    Leonard (rematch robbery)
    Benitez
    Hill
    Cuevas
    Curry
    Shuler

    Are better than:

    Pacquiao
    De La Hoya
    Cotto
    Corrales
    Castillo
    Hatton
    Canelo



    His losses don't take away from that gap in achievement, especially when 2 of them were to a level of fighter Floyd simply never faced. It's not a huge gap, but it's there. Hearns's wins shine brighter. He was greater.

    Hearns. He put it on the line, with Mayweather you are stuck with,"what ifs".

    Hearns' looks better with rose colored glasses. But where is the evidence. What prime ATG did he beat?

    It's Floyd, and it's not relatively close.

    It's interesting that he accomplished this plus a guy like Canelo to add but many still don't think it's enough

    I will say that Floyd didn't really have the comp Hearns had floating around his weight area

    Damn right it is close. Hearns' wins are better, but then he also has losses. So do we go with the undefeated record or the better wins with losses? To me PBF edges ahead - in terms of resume. H2H, Hearns wins all day long.

    I've never watched a Floyd fight and then afterwards sat in awe witnessing greatness.

    I've done that after a couple Hearns fights.

    Never after watching a Floyd fight.
