Does Thomas Hearns KO Floyd or what!

Everybody that fought before Floyd's time KO's him.

Floyd knows how to take care of himself in the ring. If he feels the threat of a KO he would go into a defensive mode. Hearns didn't KO every single welterweight he fought. If Benitez could easily go the distance with Hearns, so could Mayweather.

I've always thought Hearns could knock Mayweather out, his right hand hurt Hagler and Hagler has the best chin ive ever seen. Hearns would rock Mayweather. Right hand and left uppercut were things of beauty especially the one against the Duran.

Hell yeah.

I didn't see Hearns' right hand hurt Hagler, but that doesn't take away from Hearns' power regardless, because as you said Hagler has the ATG chin in boxing.

If Hearns catches Floyd with a quick, snapping right hand it's curtains, but as stated, Floyd is a very defensive oriented fighter and he could easily use his movement and things of that nature to last with Hearns. However, I still think Tommy hurts/KO's him.

I don't know, tough call but i wouldn't be surprised if he did

I disaggree. Im not saying for sure Mayweather will get ko'd. But Benitez from what i've seen on tape of him was a master defensive wizared. While Benitez can stay flat footed and make you miss. Floyd would stay flat footed and try and absorb the shots with his forearms, shoulders etc. Punching down is alot easier then punching up. Hearns would win thats for sure. Floyds defence is over rated, Hatton got to him various times as did others.

Does Thomas Hearns KO Floyd or what!
