Is there a More Overrated Boxer in a WeightClass than Tommy Hearns?

Thank you taan, I doubt a lot of these posters know who Shields and Espada were. Tough journeymen type fighters. Cuevas was a decent win but that doesn't make an ATG welterweight.

Mate, I still feel that your post was designed antagonistic even though you do raise a good point.

But maybe that's what it takes to get a response on this 'celebrity' boxing led site.

Holy man. Everywhere I look he is considered a top 5-10 welterweight EVER. He really just beat up on street sweepers in Detroit.

Espada? Cuevas? Shields? His claim to fame there is giving Leonard a tough fight, and people say he is an unbeatable guy at the weight?

Hell, Duran has better wins at welterweight and he is hardly mentioned.

One of the dumbest threads this week, and surprise surprise....its by a floydiot.

He really beat Leonard in fight no. 2, but it was scored a draw....i realise this was at a diff weight.

Also a big part of his WW status was the first outing with SRL.
