How would a phone Tommy Hearns do against a guy like Jermell Charlo

[Carpe Diem]

A phone Thomas Hearns would dial him up to sleep.

This.

His tablet? Maybe.

But his phone? Hell no.

I don't even think they could touch Tommy's Newton

[_Rexy_]

Lubin is an a level fighter

in his current weight class today, I don't even think he's ranked top 10.


But to go back to Tommy's era, Lubin can't carry the gym bags of Hagler, Hearns, Benetiz, Leonard, Duran....I could go on

[Sugar Adam Ali]

Tommy would box his ears off..

Purely technical boxing, hearns is top 5 all time. Nobody ever outboxed hearns.


Charlo would have a puncher’s chance

[alexguiness]

Hearns would beat him bloody.

jesus christ the hype about these charlos is something else. the best opponent theyve beat between them got beat a whole lot worse by hurd and lara.

[suffolkbull3]

what is going on with all this damn charlo praise around here?!? they have not been in the ring against anybody and yet u wanna compare him to tommy hearns?!!! thats sooo disrespectful my god!! can we see them fight a couple somebodies first before u give them the goat title?!? jacobs would smack the ish outta charlo!

[Chrismart]

He'd beat him soundly.

Both are clearly talented fighters with solid futures. I don't see greatness though but I think both can make their mark. I agree on the resumes though. Far more accomplished and talented fighters with far better resumes have been *****ted on by the same folks claiming these guys are the second coming.

Hearns iced a still excellent Duran and outpointed the extremely great Benitez at 154. Conventional wisdom says he's having it his way with either Charlo.

[The Big Dunn]

The hard part about judging Tommy in mythical fights above 147 is his chin. He is a FAR superior fighter to Charlo IMO but if Charlo lands on Tommy's chin its very likely Tommy doesn't recover.

I will pick Tommy by KO because I respect his talent and skill over someone relatively untested like Charlo.
