Hearns vs McClellan

I've not seen this before but it may have already been posted. It's from around 1990 and Hearns looks extremely good!

Hearns was extremely good :)

If they would of fought in pros at Middleweight i would of picked Gerald.

It was 1989.

I thought his powers would have been on the decline by then. Was thinking the same tactics might have been put to better use in the Hagler fight rather than standing and trading. Would have like to have seen McClellan Hagler even more!

Hearns had the boxing ability to use his height and reach against Leonard and Hagler but he had power in his right hand (and not a bad left hook) similar to McClellan. Hearns had hear and determination and was my favourite of the fab four and he would have beaten McClellan at his best.

I think he could have beaten McClellan at that point.
