Hearns all day, every day.
Hearns is a nightmare matchup for Floyd. Hearns and Henry Armstrong are probably THE 2 most difficult matchups you could dream up for Floyd.

Hearns is everything wrong for Mayweather. He has best defense in history of boxing and i am still not sure if that prevent him from being stopped here

The main thing is there's nothing Mayweather is going to be able to do to beat Tommy. Canelo actually would have a better shot against Tommy than Mayweather would. Even the Canelo that lost thoroughly to Floyd.

To beat the great Tommy Hearns you gotta pressure the fuuuck out of him. That's the only way. You're not going to outbox him. You're not going to outspeed him. And you're not definitely going to beat him to the punch.
The BLUEPRINT to beat The Hitman is on video:
Aaron Pryor, Sugar Ray Leonard, Marvelous, and Iran "The Blade" Barkley. What they had in common? They beat Hearns. And what they did to win? Pressure. Pressure and more pressure. That's the only way.
Would Floyd Mayweather, Jr do that? I don't know. He is very smart to know that he is not going to outbox Tommy. Would he pressure Hearns? That's the question.
Hearns by decision for now at 154lbs...... Is up to Pretty Boy Floyd if he wants to pressure The Hitman.
But, at 154lbs, nobody beats Hearns with probably the exception of the great Mike McCallum or Sugar Ray Robinson. That's it!
