Thomas "The Hitman" Hearns had everything

[SorceryatCaesar]

he lacked two pounds in the first leonard fight.

weighed in at 145.

two pounds he needed when his legs went in the 13th and 14th.

The only thing he REALLY lacked is inside fighting and a great chin. He was brilliant and everything else

False, tommy's legs were fine going into the 13th & 14th rounds. Tommy & Emmanuel both addressed this in the jan 1982 The Ring magazine. Tommy was winning the 13th round until he got caught. Hmmmmm he got caught in the 6th & 7th round too, was that due to his legs being shot.

^^^i agree..
he did not have everything
his inside skills were subpar...his chin was very suspsect..and tired very easily...let him sit back and box and he was a beast...put pressure on him and he's KO'd.

all those guys would get starched by hearns very quickly




hearns was a great fighter and excellent to watch, but he was no where near as good as those 3 you mentioned!!

hearns had a **** chin and his stamina started getting worse and worse as he moved up in weight!!

I rate Hearns higher than Ali and Louis
