Chris Eubank vs Thomas Hearns at 160lbs.

Sure I do. Mainly because of the scene in 'Coming to America', which cracks me up every time I see it. Besides, Clay changed is name for religious reasons. That's perfectly understandable. Eubanks never really changed his name - he just stopped calling himself by his real name because he's a bit mad.

MTF ::

 

Aye, that's the same thing.

MTF

 

no it's not. I can see changing it, if you don't like it, but for religious reasons, that's just religiolous.

 

Great word.

MTF :bears:

You can't talk to Limeys about any of these chaps

 

I hope you guy talk about a Joseph Barrow, Walker Smith and Arnold cream as well. ;)

 

:l2:

 

hahaha. Y'all underrate "limeys" that's the problem...hence why no American on this board seems to realize how good Joe Calzaghe was for example (the same lot that probably picked Lacy to knock him out).

 

You guys think Mike Watson was a "great" fighter... Can't be trusted

 

I'll never forget the old-time arguments about who was better between Beryl David Rosofsky and Benjamin Leiner

 

Actually that is a good point about Benn's power. He could really fucking thump at 160. Hearns certainly didn't hit harder than Benn, but of course had longer reach, faster hands, and was just better.

 

Who said Michael Watson was a great fighter?

 

Sure.

 

#pwned

 

No-one. Ever. He was a very good fighter, though.

MTF

 

Agreed, I don't recall anyone saying that.

He was a good one though, with a lot of ability.

 

Hearns can't stop him and Eubank was dangerous for 12. I can see Eubanks take him out, honestly.

 

:: Yep.

 

Who says Hearns needs to stop him to win?

Eubank was outboxed by far INFERIOR technicians than Hearns.

 

No. He was out fought by guys at 168 and 190.

 

word.

 

Hearns is like waaay better than anybody Eubank fought

 

Eubanks would take Hearns while Eubank would lose a decision

 

It matters not.

Tyson was waaay better than anyone Buster Douglas had fought, Frazier was waaaay better than anyone George Foreman had fought...you get where I'm going with this.

Eubank(s) had CHIN, HEART and POWER....three things in combination that Hearns would be vulnerable to. Plus Eubank had decent height reach and boxing skills. You need to look at more Eubank fights at 160lbs....dude was a beast!

 

hearn would thrash eubanks

 

:: :bears:

 

Sly would pick Peter Quillin to beat Hearns.

 

Lol. I don't know who Peter Quillin is...but Peter Quill would smash Hearns. The Hitman is no match for Star Lord.

 

Sly's reverse hard on for Hearns is a little perplexing.

Seems like the kind of fighter he'd like, highly skilled, fast, classic boxing style, powerful, etc etc.
