    Hearns the better fighter overall but would that save him?

    Hearns by commanding UD. Eubank was a counterpuncher, which wouldn't bode well for him here. And you can bet your ass that while Hearns wouldn't stop Eubank, he'd hurt him badly enough to make him gun shy.

    Eubank has a puncher's chance, but not a very good one IMO.

    Hearns' jab/right hand controls this fight.

    Benn hit like a motherfucker and didn't make Eubanks gunshy. Watson had him out on his feet and Eubanks still got up and near killed him.

    Hearns is a much better fighter P4P than Eubanks but this would be a tough fight to call. Eubanks was capable of taking the incoming and hurting Tommy. No doubt about that.

    Yes, Benn showed that Eubank would just keep coming and Benn hit as hard as Hearns. I pick Eubank to catch Hearns late. TKO 10
