I personally think that the only advantage Yearns has is speed. Everything else goes to Spinks who would stop Hearns past the 12th Rd for a k.o.

Hearns would leave on a stretcher- knocked out cold and it wouldn't take long.

Spinx would destroy Hearns. First of all, that wasn't the best weight of Hearns, while Spinx was a one of the greatest LHWs ever. Secondly, Hearns' chin was notoriously shaky, while Spinx had all tools to deliver his power.

Jinx by KTFO around 8.

Both great boxers would exchange jabs and right hands in the early rounds, then Spinks would get the better of the Hitman and nail him with his "Spinks Jinx" right hand to KO Hearns in 13 rounds.
