Hearns vs mayweather @ 147 or 154?

Hearns loss to lesser fighters than Mayweather Hearns was never outboxed in his prime. His only loss at welterweight was SRL, where he was stopped while ahead on cards in round 14. His other prime losses were stoppages at middleweight. Is mayweather stopping him with his brittle hands?

Hearns was like Williams but with speed, power and 5 times the skill. Mayweather wouldn't have risked fighting Tommy. Prime Hearns is better than any fighter Mayweather has ever faced, and better than Mayweather. Hearns loss to lesser fighters than Mayweather

Hearns = Paul Williams And Floyd ducked Williams. Hearns was like Williams but with speed, power and 5 times the skill. Mayweather wouldn't have risked fighting Tommy. Prime Hearns is better than any fighter Mayweather has ever faced, and better than Mayweather.

"Fantasy fights" we not just talking Hearns Ok so start some threads with guys like Whitaker, Duran, Chavez Sr. @ 135, anybody ever do Aaron Pryor@ 140?

Because in Hearns case, he was never a lightweight. What kind of logical sense does that make. The thread parameters are realistic weights that the two could have ever fought at. "Fantasy fights" we not just talking Hearns

Why in fantasy fights does Floyd always have to face opponents at their best weight instead of his? Because in Hearns case, he was never a lightweight. What kind of logical sense does that make. The thread parameters are realistic weights that the two could have ever fought at.

Anything to keep Floyd from losing huh. Why in fantasy fights does Floyd always have to face opponents at their best weight instead of his?

Pretty cool. Almost everybody agrees

bad style matchup for Floyd. Hearns is harder than SRL or duran for floyd. I think floyd gets outboxed, hearns had very fast hands a huge reach and height and a great jab and right hand. He can box floyd on the outside and floyd doesnt have the power at 147+ to hurt hearns either early or late in the fight. I dont think floyd gets stopped though, he doesnt even have a proper knockdown his whole career, his chin is iron, his defense impregnable and you know he is going to be super cautious with hearns. That cautiousness will make it hard for him to win rounds too. Floyd dont have the power to rough him up on the inside, he will probably box on the outside and hearns has too much reach and speed for floyd to try to pull counter him, hearns can land from far away without over extending himself. Floyd almost always has the reach advantage. You saw how awkward it was for floyd with mcgreggor who had a longer reach. Hearns outboxed SRL both fights. He lost the first in the late rounds when he was tired and SRL had no choice but to go for the kill because he was behind in the fight.

This ^ Hearns jab too long, too quick, too powerful, would keep Mayweather at bay all night long. Hearns decision every time HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Dunn is taking the mick, don't worry he's messing about Who would you favour out of mayweather vs pernell? I'd probably go with Floyd.

This is the one fight where I can see Floyd get dominated. I think Floyd would also lose to Sugar Ray and Duran, but those fights would still be close, Floyd would be a tough fight for both. But Hearns would dominate him for 12 rounds, that's if he doesn't stop him. Hearns had too much size and is a bad style match up for Floyd. At 147, Hearns wins a wide decision. At 154, Hearns knocks out Floyd. Yeah, this is about how I see it. Floyd never wanted it with tall guys going back to Vivian Harris and Paul Williams How about Floyd v. Hearns at 135, which is closer to Floyd's best weight instead of Tommy's I think 140 would be fair and I'd actually have Floyd beating a weight drained Hearns at that weight. He'd take him deep and drown him by UD

Hearn's had a great jab and was much busier with his combos. And when he lands that long right.... Mayweather would be doing well to see the final bell, but he doesn't have the activity to get any kind of decision here.

Let me tell you, Hearns was a BAAD Mutha-......shut your mouth! Yes he was badder than Shaft! Ohhh...many of you guys don't know who shaft was... I guess we can forget about Dolemite as well. Lol

At 154, Hearns knocks out Floyd. The problem with Floyd is he doesnt fight an inside fight mid ring so he cannot use an inside fight plan and getting to the inside means walking into very powerful punches and that leaves him being set up by the piston jab by Hearns and when the right hand connects, Floyd is crushed. When Floyd fights off the ropes, it is against much smaller fighters. Floyd cannot turn puncher because his power cannot turn a fight around. Hearns would maintain distance and keep unloading on Floyd while Floyd retreats to the ropes. There is no game for Floyd, no safe haven that would work against the freak of nature that Hearns was. And Hearns had lightning speed that makes those power punches even more difficult to avoid. This ^ Hearns jab too long, too quick, too powerful, would keep Mayweather at bay all night long. Hearns decision every time That's it. Stand by your man. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Dunn is taking the mick, don't worry he's messing about Every Mayweather fantasy fight has been done to death and no matter if its Hearns or Torrecampo, the other guy is the consensus choice. Who would you favour out of mayweather vs pernell?

Stupid comparison. How are they alike when one knows how to use range and the other doesnt? I hated the comparison when Williams was active. Him and Hearns are nothing alike. I never liked the Hearns comparison either.

Every Mayweather fantasy fight has been done to death and no matter if its Hearns or Torrecampo, the other guy is the consensus choice. Yeah because it's no way for you to crow about the other guy doing the ducking

Hearns by decision. Though he would have the best chance to KO Floyd at 154 because he was a beast at that weight.

Every Mayweather fantasy fight has been done to death and no matter if its Hearns or Torrecampo, the other guy is the consensus choice. Yo I'd give floyd the nod over a prime Greg Haugen

Topic has been done to death and the consensus is that Hearns wins big Every Mayweather fantasy fight has been done to death and no matter if its Hearns or Torrecampo, the other guy is the consensus choice.
