Right... Hearns couldn't hurt Hagler, a small Middleweight who clung to the division his whole career... Or Barkley, who's chin was accessible - and who lost to a lot of other Middleweights and got stopped several times... So Tommy was no wonder puncher at Middleweight or above... He got shittcanned by tough guys who could walk through him...

He's certainly not going to hurt a Heavyweight with a solid chin... I could take a big shot from Heavyweights... I boxed with a lot of Light Heavyweights as well, and you can't feel their punches.. If you hit them with anything big they'll never work with you again.. They're great for speed work but you have to pull your punches like crazy..

I've seen Heavyweights spar with Lightweights.. One day Howard Smith boxed several rounds with Monroe Brooks like there was nothing to it.. Brooks was close to a world class boxer and super fast.. Smith just worked to Brooks's weight and hit him with quick feather punches, but he did sting him with one shot.

I have no idea why you say all of that as though anyone is going to believe you, rather than laugh at you.

I’ve found it’s 60/40 on folk who believe his shite. I’ve been appalled at how many take his opinion as anything other than insanity.

Kill Hearns with a punch :bow: Charlie Zelenoff you have been usurped!

You idiot, Hearns could knock out a million men who are heavyweight sized, and if you're actually heavyweight sized, you'd be one of them, and everyone knows it. Some internet heavyweight like you'd get knocked out every time dumbass, because you're nobody, and nobody believes your insane made up stories.

Toney didn't beat Sam Peter at all -- much less comfortably, you lying pile of cow manure....

He also weighed 217 to 250 plus when he fought Heavyweights... That MAKES him a Heavyweight fart-for-brains.

Toney also had the greatest chin ever for a Middleweight... Toney didn't get FLATTENED by Iran Barkley for instance....he beat the crude swinging target up and stopped him... Hearns couldn't do that... The Thinman got knocked unconscious....

A sorry sight indeed... Poor Tommy couldn't defend anything like Toney ..... a master craftsman.

You're a damned liar for saying Toney beat Sam Peter comfortably when he couldn't beat him in 2 tries... And everyone weighs 160 before they weigh 240.... If you weigh well over 200 you're a Heavyweight and don't qualify as a Middleweight... Your punching power doesn't change that dramatically just because you add a lot of muscle and bulk to a small frame... Like Michael Spinks vs Mike Tyson. He didn't make a dent.. Any Heavyweight with a really good chin will take your punch unless he's old or wasn't a real Heavyweight to begin with.

Roy Jones didn't go Heavyweight without hiring strength trainer Mackie Shilstone to slap 25lbs of muscle on him... He picked the perfect opponent and became the 1st Middleweight Champ in 103 years to win the Heavyweight Title.

I never claimed Brooks and Smith were world class... They were close... They beat some name fighters, but couldn't get over the hump against the top ranked guys... They did better than most ham-n-eggers so they're okay with it.
