Welterweights: Luis Manuel Rodriguez vs Thomas Hearns
Who wins between two great all time welterweights and pound per pound boxers ever. Both to me, are top 100 greatest pound per pound fighters ever
Re: Welterweights: Luis Manuel Rodriguez vs Thomas Hearns
Hearns by close UD
Re: Welterweights: Luis Manuel Rodriguez vs Thomas Hearns
The Hitman by decision in a classic bout behind his longer jabs, right hands and combinations.

Re: Welterweights: Luis Manuel Rodriguez vs Thomas Hearns
If Tommy does not stop El Feo in the first 5 rounds, I see El Feo winning by unanimous decision. He will work inside with body punches in volumes to do it. He will pressure The Hitman. And I think that he has a very good chin to withstand Tommy's right hand.
But at 154lbs and above, I see Tommy winning by a clear cut decision a la Wilfred Benitez' fight.

I'd take Rodriguez at any weight.

I would lean towards Hearns. He could take out Rodriquez, thought it probably would go the distance. Would probably have been a great fight.
