Tommy Hearns vs Oscar De La Hoya @ 147

[street bully]

the punches were hurting him but he never really looked that "stunned" if you know what i'm trying to say

He would have been Koed if he didn't pull a Cintron.

I mean, not really. He looked a pasteurized fish.
Whatever that means.

Hopkins dominated and KOed him without even breaking a sweat or trying hard to begin with. Hears would KO him rather easily, styles make fights, and Hears is all wrong for fish nets.

I still say Fishnets took a dive in that fight, once he realized Hopkins was going to beat on him for the rest of the fight.

Pwn.

i have the exact same look on Fridays at my desk....my mind is already somewhere else and i feel beat up

[rizkybizness]

what about when he gave birth in the middle of the hopkins fight...the way he was rolling around tryin to push that baby out

don't blame DLH for taking a liver shot when he was trying to defend and looking out for those lead heat butts

i was just kidding...everyone knows he took a dive

[IMDAZED]

Is this a serious question?

exactly!

?

no, it's obviously outside the realm of possibility due to the lack of a time machine

Oscar won't be stopped. I think either Hearns or De La Hoya wins a close decision. It would be interesting to see who wins the battle of the jabs. Both guys have great jabs. Hearns uses his height more and has longer reach. Oscar can surely hurt hurns with his left hook but i don't know if he would get an opportunity to land it.

DLH could theoretically hurt Hearns with a left hook and then follow up and finish him, but I would highly doubt that would happen.

This would be one of the rare occasions where DLH doesn't have a better jab or a hand speed advantage over his opponent. He's going up against a taller, rangier fighter whom not only is terrific at boxing from the outside, but had a monster right hand and excellent left hook to the body. I remember DLH saying after the Quartey fight that the reason he was so tenative for much of the fight was because he was nervous of Ike's punching power. Well Hearns's right cross is arguably the greatest ever in the history of the sport.
