Jabandmove Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 At welterweight, Floyd v Tommy - WHO WINS? For me, Hearns wins by KO somewhere around the 6th round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grapevine241 Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Hearns by KO as soon as Floyd stops running. Floyd's shoulder roll isn't gonna help him. If Floyd can stick and move the whole fight, then he could win a decision i guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McBride Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Tommy all day long, because just like Williams, his reach, coupled with his handspeed allows him to pick Mayweather off from range. The shoulder roll / Philly shell doesn't come into play in either fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WelshDevilRob Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Thomas Hearns by Ko. All the physical attributes with Tommy. Height and reach too much for Floyd to deal with. Hearns was also a devastating puncher at the weight and had fast hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jabandmove Posted October 17, 2009 Author Share Posted October 17, 2009 Surprised nobody can find an arguement for Floyd, he is one of the greatest fighter of this generation but most seem to not give him a hope against Hearns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faulks Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Im a massive fan of PBF the boxer Jab. The guy just doesnt get hit very often. Though Hearns was very big at the weight, a little like willams. PBF is not a huge Welter.. Infact id go as far as to say Floyd would never of took the fight as he isnt the bigger man mlol/ Floyd Would havge to be on the very very top of his hame to beat Tommy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ironjab Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 i think pbf wouldve desicioned hearns, hes great defensively, he just doesnt get hit, hearns would have to land before he got tired, its an awesome idea though, but as was said pbf wouldnt take a fight against a bigger man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheelchair Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 mayweather by close decision. How is he going to outbox, Hearns? NO chance of that. Even Leonard couldn't outbox Hearns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obama Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Never pick a fighter that's never been KOed or remotely close to KOed, to be KOed. Especially a fighter that's simultaneously a defensive genius. Best defensive fighter Hearns ever faced was probably Benitez. He went the distance. He goes the distance with Floyd.

razzledaz Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 the fight never would have happened if they fought in the same era....Floyd only takes on opponents he knows he,s going to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
londoner Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 Hearns wins by mid round KO. Hearns was awesome in his prime. He knocked out Eddie Gazo in 1 round, Pipino Cuevas in 2, Roberto Duran in 2 and Juan Domingo Roldan in 4. He also beat plenty of other legends. Floyd hasn't beaten anyone even close to Hearns' calibre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James McKnight83 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Re: Floyd Mayweather Jnr v Thomas Hearns @147lbs I agree with the majority on here. Hearns by KO. His height and reach and speed would have given Floyd fits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thedarkdragon11 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Re: Floyd Mayweather Jnr v Thomas Hearns @147lbs There's no way Mayweather could win against Hearns, or any of the 4 horsemen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
