A big what if: Thomas Hearns with an iron chin

Post by jezzamundo »

How would Thomas Hearns career have been different had he had an excellent chin? Would he be rated up there with Sugar Ray Robinson? Would he have ever lost? How would his big fights (in particular losses) have turned out differently?

He'd have beaten Leonard in their first fight. he'd have been big enough to grant him arematch and he'd have beaten him again. Then he moves up to Jr Mid where he beats Duran. He unifies the Jr Mid title before fighting Hagler. Hagler's superior stamina wins him that fight.
