    No doubt i'd make Hearns a solid favourite over Curry. Id make him about a 70/30 favourite over Tito aswel.

    What i mean is even though he would start favourite against all of them he's liable to get upset along the way.

    I think overall, Hoya would've been the most likely to beat him. I wouldn't make him the favorite, but I think he'd be the livest dog out of the bunch.

    Yeah when you get to the top level anything can happen in a fight really. That is why the undefeated thing in boxing is not that impressive to me. I always thought if a guy fights them all and loses, at least he fought them all. Yeah I agree. Tito or Curry have a chance. They were that good.

    I am not sure. If I had to pick a tougher guy I think Tito would be. He came to fight and I think Tommy would beat him since he was quicker and had the right hand, but Tito came to fight more than Oscar, and that type of guy beats Hearns more than the guy who jabs and sits back and counters like Oscar. Ray and Hagler and Barkley all came to Hearns and made the punches land and took chances. Ray was desperate actually and I give him credit for coming on. Oscar would not have come to Hearns and then add to that Hearns jab landing, I see Oscar a bad style matchup for Tommy.

    I've always thought Tito would have a good chance against Hearns - but I'd still have him as an underdog.
    I wouldn't give anyone in the last 15 years more than a 50/50 chance against the Hitman.

    No one. He beats everyone on that list with Pea and PBf giving him the most problems because of their defense.

    Out of the choices you provided I'd say Tito would have the best shot

    Hearns was a bully fighting at 147. He had a joke of a chin. He's over-rated. I'd favor Oscar.

    Get back at you? wtf are we, 14? Hearns was a bully and had a glass jaw. Those are facts. If he had a good chin, he would be top 10 of all time.

    DLH can beat Hearns. When was DLH ever really hurt to the chin. DLH left hook can be lights out for Hearns. And Hearns at 160 against Jones a toss up? Come on. Roy Jones KOs Hearns.
