It appears that Lamotta is becoming more fatigued than hearns at this point. Coming into round 7 I woulod have to say, unofficialy, that hearns is way ahead on the cards. There have been a few close rounds so it may be closer than I suspect.
Round 7
They meet ring center, diging the body and jockeying for position. Lamotta diga an uppercut into hearns but hearns is quick to retaliate and lamotta slow to get out as Tommy fires 4 straight shots down the poipe on lamotta. Lamotta, amazingly still unfazed jumps on hearns, landing a right hand and making hearns miss while landing a glancing uppercut. Hearns would back away, again using the ring. His right hand was not even seen by lamotta as it smashes into his face. Hearns quickly doubles it up and finishes with a hook as he again dances to saftey. Lamotta seems just to be following hearns unaware of what waits in the very near future... Hearns jams a quick 1-2, snapping the bulls head backwards and touches lamotta with a jab. Lamotta jumps forward touching hearbs with a jab at the bell.

The cuts have not factored into the match but thomas hearns reach and straight punches have. he has been catching lamotta coming in, however when lamotta is able to get in he has been working well to the hit mans body and possibly slowing him down.
