    hmmmm....i think pete would be the one to engage between the two...the one to make the fight.

    the guy would go toe to toe for prolonged periods just because he was that damn ****y. duva's blood pressure was probably at an all-time high when he was walking down mcgirt and was trading at close range with paez.

            Am I the only person that laughed at that post?

            Speed may kill, but so does Hearns' overhand right, ask Roberto Duran.

              Which Hearns? The one that started his career at 147 or the one who eventually fought at Cruiserweight? Which Mayweather would be beat? The one who started at 130 or the one who won a belt at Light Middle weighing 148-150? Would it be too much of a stretch to say that Hagler would KO Hatton in spectaculor fashion too? Would Tyson KO Calzaghe? C'mon dude, if you're gonna compare guys from different generations at least compare them to guys at the same weight.

                I dont see any way Mayweather beats Hearns. He might not get knocked out, but it doesnt matter. Hearns was a good enough boxer to win by decision.

                  roberto duran is not floyd mayweather. hearns couldnt get a decision over leonard, but hes gonna KO floyd??? sorry bro but that wouldnt happen.

                    What are you saying, that Floyd is a better fighter than Leonard?

                    Because that's debatable, and most would disagree.

                    Infact I bet 90% would disagree.

                    And I honestly don't know if Hearns would KO Floyd, but Hearns had the best jab in boxing history as far as I'm concerned, and we all saw how much trouble Oscar's jab gave lil Floyd, so I'd hate to imagine what Hearns would do.

                      No one can say for sure who would win, otherwise, no one would pick Lacy to beat Joe, and Miranda to beat Pavlik, and no one would pick Wlad to beat Sanders
                      opinions do not make facts. I think boxing is too global now to let Americans feel comfortable anymore.....wake up and live with it.
