      Talk about the totally irrelevant, Leonard knocked hearns out so it is irrelevant and to say if Leonard couldn't outbox him (obviously Hearns didn't box well enough anyway) is just an opinion and it ignores the fact that there have been many many many great welterweights some of the very greatest we have no film of like Jack Britton and the incredible Tommy Ryan. Hearns chin was not great so many of the great welters beat him more than Hearns beats them. I am far from saying Hearns wasn't a great fighter, he was but he was very beatable, I am sure Robinson beats him, even fighters with half of Tommy's talent are capable of knocking Tommy out like Tony DeMarco who if he lands one of his bombs just once on Tommys jaw it's instant lights out (well that would be the case with many fighters facing Tony who was maybe the hardest hitter the division ever had).
