I know, right? Before losing his undefeated record to the great Sugar Ray Leonard, his record was 32-0, with 30 knockouts!
And those two that survived and went the distance with him weren't welterweights.
Thomas "The Hitman" Hearns also won all his first 17 bouts by knockout!

I will never forget that right hand missile that he landed on Duran.
Also the way he destroyed Pipino Cuevas.
Belated Happy Birthday, Hitman.
