Could Any Great Welter Of The Last Decade Beat Tommy Hearns?

[winky's right]

out of that list, i give shane the best chance of victory.

De La hoya has a great chance if he boxes like he did the first 8 rounds against tito.
Trinidad would be a war and i Trinidad has the punch to KO hearns which i think Hearns gets him 1st.
Mosley has a good chin and if its the Mosley from the 1st De la hoya fight then its a Competitive fight with Hearns Decision.
Pacquiao against hearns would be a great fight but Hearns might be a little to tall for Pac to hit the head and Hearns throws an excellent jab so pac would be the underdog but you never could say never with Pacs speed but i'd still favor hearns.

Welcome to Boxingscene

I've been here long enough to know what boxingscene consists of, bro.

It still comes as a shock some of the abserd comments.

And the Floyd 'fans' and Pacquaio 'fans' seem worse than ever at the moment.

sarcasm? hope so, but its hard to tell on the internet.

Definitely sarcasm. Sorry.

[bojangles1987]

wow

Total sarcasm, I don't mean it at all.

he's not a WW but he fought a lot of the guys on the list so i'm throwin him out there.

i'd say Winky would have the chin and the style and physical strength to go the distance with hearns at 54

and lose by a good and sturdy margin

Interesting, but he doesn't have the style or power to beat Hearns. I'd want to see it though.

Trust, I know, I know. Hopefully they watch more of Hearns.

so because i presented an argument, unlike you, it's haha all of a sudden huh? that's the real haha--i've always said floyd would beat hearns--check out my older posts--same argument i used here---now, you can believe what you want, but i know hearns style and people keep brining up srl, which is so dumb when comparing him to floyd because ray leanord is nowhere near floyd in terms of styles--different styles--srl had more pop to his punches but not better defense, and timing than floyd---floyd's counterpunching isn't just textbook counterpunching, it's a more modern type of style that hearns never faced--i didn't use n'dou to compare to hearns--hell, i could have very well used tony pep rather than n'dou but pep's style is nowhere near hearns either---how can your little dumbass arguement about fantasy fights be taken as anymore than repeated nonsense-
what would you call this fight? what would you call this thread--why not take your little ***** argument and use them against the threadstarter you ****ing dork-lol----people on here kill me with their logic---it's so easy for me to argue against people on here--you would think that after all of these years being apart of this forum, i would have a person who could potentially present at least a decent argument against me---it has yet to happen-lol--
kudos to you though for making this easy for me once again--

your first post was so ridiculous as are your other arguments. I don't argue with wack jobs. Here you are going on about how terrible the srl-Floyd comparisons are when you just used the n'dou fight as a barometer for what would happen in Floyd vs hearns.

Reality is floyd has fought no one at 147 that has any relation to hearns whatsoever. Srl, benetiz and so on and so forth are legitimate topics for discussion as they are world class hof type boxers that hearns faced in their prime. You have your opinion-fine but your reasoning is flimsy, biased, and transparent. Why argue with that when your agenda shines through so
clearly?

I'd rather laugh about it.

Floyd? Hmm, doubt it, Tommy's boxing skills were insane, even when he was hurt.

But Floyd definitely has a better chance than Forrest. Remember, V.Forrest got taken out by a Mayorga right hand, and lost in a rematch too. I can only imagine what hearns would do to him

I have to disagree. A tall jabber (Oscar) was pretty accurate with his jab against Floyd and Floyd couldn't take control until Oscar did his signature late round fade. Hearns is taller than Oscar, was an even more consistent jabber and was fundamentally a lot better IMO. Mayweather has absolutely no way to get inside of Hearns nor the firepower to **** him out late (ie Leonard) Forrest almost matches Hearns in height and is pretty powerful himself. I think the Mayorga fight had more to do with him being arkward than anything else. He would definitely lose to Hearns but he would have moments and would do better than the rest IMO.
