View Full Version : Tommy Hearns vs Nigel Benn BigMKO 11-02-2006, 09:30 AM who wins this awesome matchup? Southpaw Stinger 11-02-2006, 09:40 AM Both guys can bang and could end it with one punch. I'll favour Hearns in this one by an early stoppage but it could easily be the other way around. Would be exciting no matter who wins. OASIS_LAD 11-02-2006, 09:43 AM what a war this would have been, i really dont know who i'd favour my heart would be rooting for benn but my mind would be predicting hearns to possibly tko benn Liaison 11-02-2006, 11:40 AM Man, this is impossible to predict. The match will feature blood and battered faces by the end of it all. The winner would probably finish their opponent with a flurry of hard rights in the 9-11th rounds. This fight definitely wouldn’t go all the way. I’ll go with Benn in a 10th Round stoppage because he’s losing in the pole. GEOFFHAYES 11-02-2006, 12:54 PM Has to be Benn, two or three rounds, rolling and swaying and looking for the big hooks. Southpaw Stinger 11-02-2006, 01:00 PM Has to be Benn, two or three rounds, rolling and swaying and looking for the big hooks. It's a punchers fight. And since Benns chin cannot compare with Haglers then it cannot automaticly be Benn winning. wmute 11-02-2006, 05:11 PM love the hitman but I cannot avoid taking Benn bigger better chin I dont know if skills would me much of a factor with the kind of pressure benn brought to the fight Shanus 11-02-2006, 05:23 PM This would be similar to Hagler/Hearns, but I can see Hearns starting strong but Benn taking him out in devastating fashion, pretty much like most Benn fights (Mclellan, Barkley, just to name a few). hemichromis 11-03-2006, 03:16 AM its difficult hearns was faster but benns bobing and weaving would help it could go either way but i favour benn Bob Anomaly 11-03-2006, 10:48 AM Would it be a factor what weight they fought at? Middleweight was Benns perfect weight, his punches were too fast and powerful. At Supermiddle he was slower and was outboxed by Malinga, who was a tall rangey boxer. But Hearns was KO'd by Barkley. But maybe that wouldnt matter. I lean towards Benn, but both are very fast and dangerous at middleweight. ****, i dont know. Yogi 11-03-2006, 11:17 AM I'm a little bit suprised that Hearns is leading in the voting. BigMKO 11-03-2006, 11:21 AM Benn was the all around harder puncher but I can see him being dropped by one of Hearn's rights and who knows from then? number6 11-03-2006, 04:31 PM This is a great fight,one of the best yet in the fantasy fights section.imo. It could go either way,both were hard punchers and both got rocked alot in fights.Hearns is without doubt an all time great and achieved more than Benn did in his career.But in this fight at middle/super middleweight i would lean towards Benn slightly.I think he would find the spot in a exciting slugfest. Benn ko in 4.

Benn can also get lucky and land the big punch, but Tommy was a much better boxer, so I've to go with Tommy. Bucktown Beast 11-04-2006, 12:02 AM Tommy by late stoppage...too precise with the right which Benn would be taking a few of. Even if Benn withstood the barrage, Tommy could outbox anybody. wmute 11-04-2006, 12:46 AM I'm a little bit suprised that Hearns is leading in the voting. agreed isnt it a bit ridiculous, considering their respective performances at 160 and beyond? looking at the results of this poll i start understanding JuyJuy's crusade to promote Benn and Eubank's memories phallusy 11-04-2006, 02:03 AM benn wins this one. hearns isn't a natural middlweight, benn is. hearns is a better boxer, but benn has more heart. i'd pick benn to win because he ****ed up the g man, who was bigger and stronger than tommy hearns. hearns would be winning on the cards when one of benn's heavy fists landed and knocked him the **** out. vBulletin® v3.7.1, Copyright ©2000-2008, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
