Hell of a fight between Bivins and Hearns, Bivins puts him down 3 times but Hearns manages to hold on for a Majority Decision win. The fight reminded me of Sam Peter vs Wlad Klitschko. I believe the deciding factor in the decision was the 6th round where Bivins did nothing and the judges gave Hearns a 10-8 score. I'd like to see a rematch in the future.

A great fight between Archie Moore and Carlos Monzon would like to see a rematch at some point.
