    IMO,..Duran’s most impressive win.

    Way smaller, fighting a strong beast like Barkley.

    Iran is literally two weight classes heavier..and probably 3-4 classes bigger

    The fuck? Barkley was getting completely fucked up in the first fight before he pulled out that hail mary. The fight was going the way everybody thought it would go.

    Maybe I need to watch it again, and I'll happily take it back if I'm wrong, but I remember Barkley being cut to fuck, beat up, and a round or so away from being stopped.

    You Recall Correctly...

    REED Just Rewatched it Himself (& Posted It)...Left Eye Badly Cut, Mouf' Bleeding...Thing Is, Barkley Fought Off his Backfoot a LOT More Than Usual, vs. Hearns...More than he Did vs. Duran, Unquestionably...

    Hearns Visibly Hurt Barkley in the 3rd w/a Series of VICOUS Bodyshots that Nearly Folded His Ass in Half, a Minute or So Before Iran Lowered the Boom...

    Hearns didn’t hurt Barkley to the head but he hurt him to the body. Hearns had a wicked left hook downstairs.

    Barkley was being folded in two with body shots by Hearns when he landed the Hail Mary from hell ... he was getting his ass kicked
