      this right heere. He smokes under 154 including Floyd and manny. floyd would get kept at bay with his jab and gets stopped late while manny walks into something big and gets ktfo160-175 he beats a lot of guys but those weren't his best weight classes, especially 175. Kovalev, Ward, especially and also GGG could give him some problems

        Somewhere along the line he's gonna get caught vy a big punch and get KOed, the man didn't have the best chin and that is a very serious weakness.

          He was only stopped by ATGs Leonard (14th round, after outboxing SRL most of the fight mind you) and Hagler (absolute war) and a very good fighter in Iran Barkley. He also went all the way up to Cruiserweight to snatch a belt. I think it's an exaggerated notion that he had a "weak" chin.

            never rocked, never down, never even slightly hurt

            cant say the same about shaky chinned Hearns

            GGG TKO's the frail Hearns and Kovalev puts him in a coma
            GGG has fought nobody lol. Hearns would have KO'd everybody on GGG's resume in a few rounds and in better fashion. Hearns' chin is shaky because he was stopped by ATGs SRL and Hagler? Lol both those guys would have annihilated Bumlovkin.

              Hearns was great at 154 and 147 but only good at 160 and ok but certainly beatable at 175. Remember Barkley beat him twice and Barkley lost to lots of guys. I think GGG KOs him. Ward might outpoint him and Kovalev surely KOs him. Stevenson is probably too big and hits too hard for Hearns.

                Thoughts????????
                At 147 and 154, most definitely.

                At 160? Against GGG I doubt it, Hearns chin would not hold up. At 168 against DeGale, Jack, Groves...I dunno, pretty much toss up fights. At 175 he gets battered by kKova and Stevenson

                    Unproven - does not mean bad or mediocre fighter. Nobody "annihilates" Golovkin. I'm not even sure that Hearns can outbox GGG - guy has GREAT timing; boxing from outside may end in catching a well-timed bomb. And inside - it was not Tommy's strength due to his anatomy.

                      Even Froch could present problems - the way Barkley did. Not to mention other fighters - Ward, Kovalev, GGG, Beterbiev. Prime Calzaghe is an interesting matchup. Could go either way. If Calzaghe survives early, he could tire Tommy out. And Calzaghe always got up after being KD.
