We Love you Tommy Hearns!!!

The eighties was a great year for him... Tommy, it was a great year for the fans too. In his prime everyone feared him. Glad to see he and Ray are friends now. The Hitman Thomas Hearns will live forever in the books as one of the very best. In his natural prime, he was one of the greatest fighters in history. He came along in a time of greats like Hagler, Leonard and Durna. He always came to go to war. It served him well against a smaller Duran and not so well against a bigger Hagler. Tommy's wars with Leonard were an honor to witness live as it happened. He fought in a time where fighters were not so greedy and he fought for honor and the sport. Today's fighters (or at least many) fight for things. Tyson Furry has brought dishonor to himself and his fans, not to mention the sport. He is a greedy braggart who harm boxing in general and embarrasses his fans , of which i used to be one. Usyk is the only true heavyweight Champion. Tyson calls him a middle weight while all the time making up reasons to avoid fighting him. Furry's titles should be taken. He hurts all of boxing with his antics.

Amazing boxer, tough as nails but what a sad thing to see. He is only 64 but looks and sounds like my 90 year old grandpa. Those guys took so much damage.. Sugar Ray in comparion is much more preserved, physicaly and mentaly.

The Hitman. Fierce Legend

The Hitman still got the smoke if you want some! Respect!

Although I have always been a fan of Ray, I will always love Tommy as well. He will always be the hit-man. That's who he was as a fighter, he didn't care who you were, you had to show him you were able to dodge his hit. Tommy, Ray and Alexis were just master boxers. You had to show them you were better and they would fight you to the end. I think overconfidence gave them their loses. They got caught up in the fight. I think drugs were involve in the Alexis vs Prior fight. It seems Tommy is slurring more, due to the shots hes taken during his career. He fought with heart and soul, just like the great ones and I will never forget what they left in the ring. As a boxing fan, I would just like to thank all boxers for their sacrifices to the sport and all of the great memories they've given me. RIP for those who aren't here.

I miss ALL of them THE FABULOUS FOUR were the KINGS of Boxing !!!!! I have to include Wilfredo Benitez also He became Boxing's youngest Champion at just 17 years old.

Shaq, james toney, Thomas Hearn. Trash talkers 😂funny,funny, funny! A 4th fight between Lenard,and Hearn 😮

I remember in a video (a few years back) the interviewer told Hearns that Spence said his dream fight is to face the Fab 4. Hearns told him Spence is a good fighter, but going against them is something altogether different. In other words, he'd be in over his head. To me. he would have a shot at beating Duran because of the size difference, but would lose to the other 3.

@edwardlee9817

Жыл бұрын

I believe spence would handily lose to all of the 4 kings. Spence would have a hard time controlling distance with durans almost frenetic pressure and if they did fight in the pocket Duran had an almost preternatural ability to ride punches and create space to slip in punches. Duran was relatively small but he was able to lift the strap from Iran Barkley at middleweight and play around with Nigel Benn when he was already fat and past his prime. Unfortunately boxers aren’t active enough today, it’s going to be hard to gauge how they perform against the greats of yesteryear

Motor City Cobra is a living legend. Much respect to one of the GOATS. That said, Hitman probably ain’t paying much attention to this new breed. He don’t know who Bud and Errol are.

Sugar Ray was the reason I started doing back flip

Boxing was kill or be killed back in the day they didn't stop the fight because have too many headshots this also happened to Muhammad Ali very sad to see that's why I hate to hear people talking about may weather being great it's a disrespect to the old boxers who weren't afraid to stand toe-to-toe and fight not run,

Them two look like they know how to take a man through a war

So many will watch this, reminisce about the "gladiators" and talk bad about fighters who wont stand still and punch each other for 12 rounds. Why would they?
