    Hey Larry is there anyone you dont think Floyd would beat? maybe that is a better yard stick for you, because you dont seem to be able to separate biased from commonsense that last couple of days.

    Im all for the idea that old fighters are not always the best fghters and you dont have to fight in black and white to be a great fighter, but come on.

    The last two days you have said Floyd would box circles around Duran and beat Whitaker badly and embarrass Hearns. I always thought you were an unbiased Floyd fan, but the last few days you have shown what true fanboy you are.

      Hearns just might be the only one. And quite frankly, you can make an EXTREMELY strong case that he should be.

        Can't believe I read that a prime Pernell Whitaker would get stopped by Floyd.

            No way in hell. Gotta love Tommy, but he is simply not in that league.

                  I always though Floyd-Hearns would be interesting because for Floyd to win Floyd would have to fight on the inside to win. Hearns is a lot bigger then Floyd though so if he could even pull off that plan is suspect, but it is a better option as opposed to getting killed on the outside. Still interesting fight though.

                    I would say his best shot to counter would be on the inside.
