That was a rare one.

Yeah I have this fight on tape, used to a pretty rare diamond in my collection til YouTube came along. Hearns didn't have much physical strength as an amatuer, nor did he have a big punch, Steward really set about refining his style for the pros and all of a sudden he started starching people with that right and wearing guys out by leanin on em and pushing them around. Pryor was a beast in this fight, like an Energizer bunny

hearns looked very sloppy there! even his right was sloppy, not like the sharp hard right we're used too! i would love to have seen a 22 yearold hearns against pryor!

Yep. Tito Trinidad is another guy who wasn't really a puncher in the amateurs but was a big puncher as a professional.
