    LOL at you... It means both

          For sure Hopkins wins this one, but Hearns would be the best middleweight he ever faced, I don't see Hop knocking him out.

            OMG

            I cant believe this. This much DISRESPECT for the Hitman??


            I would pick Thomas Hearns to beat Hopkins.


            1. Hearns is the most undereated boxers of all time. Outboxes SRL, Benitez and Vigil Hill. He's a great boxer!


            2. 1 hit KO at all weight. Hopkins is safe from that right hand? no way to find out but i dont think so.


            3. Jermain ****ING Taylor has 2 Victories over Hopkins. so what does that tell us?


            4. Hearns : Wins over Duran, Benitez, Cuevas, Hill and losses againts SRL, Hagler and Barkley VS Hopkins Wins over DelaHoya, Trinidad, Tarver , GlenJ and Pascal and losses to JTaylor and Pascal





            I can see how other people are picking Hopkins specially with the size advantage but i cant understand how they are so certain that the Hitmen would surely lose.

              He beat a prime Virgil Hill at 175. He was definitely good. Hearns was at his best at 154. Above there his chin was more of a problem. Hops did lose to Jermain Taylor, a guy who at least has a similar style to Hearns.

                  Has Hopkins become this overated? Or is Hearns being that underrated?

                  I can see arguments to both fighters winning but I don't get how people speak like it's a given Hopkins beats the Hearns??

                  Speed and the jab gives Hopkins problems and Hearns had both!

                    OOOOOOOOKKKKKKKK B-Hop. Let's stop gassing ourselves up now. You may have probably been able to beat Hearns, I'll give you that much. But knock him out? Not buying it man.
