I'm a Floyd guy. Since the 96 Olympics.
I've probably seen him been in real trouble in a few fights.
Thought Chop Chop caught him in the earlier rounds. Judah. Mosley. That's what makes him a pretty solid first ballot hall of famer.
That's not my point, bud.
If Hearns caught him, it would be a little different.
We will agree to disagree.

the day that floyd mayweather jr., reverts to old philly style boxing, and is taking two or three shots, to get one in, like the way meldrick taylor took shots from terry norris, is the day that floyd mayweather jr. retires from boxing...

Man, imagine trying to roll one of Hearn's bombs? suicidal.
Floyds' Philly shell would be a hard style to win against Hearns . "The Hitman" can fire from a comfortable distance with his reach advantage so he'll be difficult for Floyd to counter clean, and with his punching power, it would be hard for Mayweather to catch so many shots from such a big puncher, especially for his weight class.
I see Floyd trying the shell, then deciding to fight him from the outside in spurts.trying to make Hearns reach so he can time him. Hearns wouldn't hesitate to come in when he wanted to, and land some hard shots. It will have to be a really active fight for Floyd, more than what he's used too for sure.
Interesting match up, but if i was to put money on someone, it would be Hearns.

I would like to see how Floyd would adjust his style to fight someone like Hearns. I doubt he would stand in the pocket and fight off the ropes the way he has in his 147-154 career. One can only imagine.
But if I were to play "Create the Perfect Fighter to defeat Floyd Mayweather", Tommy Hearns would be that perfect fighter.
