mayweather vs Thomas Hearns at 147 both in their prime

[The Big Dunn]

Floyd ducked Keith Thurman

Manny ducked Zab Judah and zahir raheem. Is what it is.

[djtmal]

Hearns never fought below 154 after he turned 24.

Don't matter he and Floyd campaigned at welterweight and nobody picks Floyd to beat him at welterweight.

[djtmal]

Where did I say that?

.

You don't have to. You keep making it about size when its clear that Hearns and Floyd both campaigned at welterweight.

Ok. The reason they dont is size. Which is fine.

[djtmal]

I, like other rational and knowledgeable fans in this thread, know size is why Hearns wins.

The rest of the world knows Hearns could just as easily outbox Floyd regardless of size.

Floyd never beat anybody comparable nor ever tried to

One guy began his career there. The other guy ended his career there.

Like asking about who would win between McCallum v Manny at 154.

No they dont. That opinion has been cited by one irrational manny nut gobbler.

There is no one comparable to Hearns during the era in terms of style.

Now in terms of p4p ATG, there were 3; ODH , shane, Manny. He beat all 3.

[djtmal]

One guy began his career there. The other guy ended his career there.

Yeah but in the middle there is a large window where both guys were prime there and were welterweights.


I don't see you don't get that.

Surely there has to be one instance where Floyd isn't too small

[djtmal]

No they dont.

Yes they do

Do another poll for the umpteenth time. Floyd vs Hearns prime and see what happens.

You would just presume the fight takes place at welterweight and Hearns beats him based on skill.
