I prefer 15 rounds and anyways, the Hitman would get the better of Benvenuti with his longer jabs and nailing him with sharp right hands and combinations to either decision or KO him in the late rounds.

Ain't nobody beating the great Thomas Hearns at 154lbs unless you are Mike McCallum or Sugar Ray Robinson.

Hearns by any route.

Benvenuti was great at 154 but Hearns has too many physical advantages here. Unless he gets hit with a lucky left hook from Nino, Hearns UD12
