His dad didn't take that great a punch either.
It's a pretty tough ask ......... being a boxer who is Tommy Hearns' son. Jesus, have some pity on the guy.
It don't help that his hunger desire and need would not have been as great as his dad. His upbringing would not have been as tough as his dads. Thomas hearns more than likely came from poverty (or close) where as his son would have had a more priveledged upbringing.
Thomas Hearns needed to fight, his son just wants to.
Can't blame him for wanting to be like his dad anyone who is proud of their dad would want to.
If my dad was the hitman i would have tried harder at boxing too :cool:
his name has got him a title shot when perhaps he shouldn't have been there but he still getting punched in the face and facing the same risks as everyone else so fair play to him.
Good post armyash

He should be applauded if anything
Good call Otlety. That's two weeks in a row now you're upset predictions have come to nothing. ;D
I'm on a roll for sure, good way to make some dough cause whatever i pick will lose bigtime...but then again i sense these upsets big time i have just been unlucky...ref stopped Abell really quick and i got blinded by the name Hearns...next time i will get the upset correct, mark my words...lol

A long way to go yet, but his dad was a legend all you'll almost never live up to that, nostalgia alone makes it nearly impossible
Ya but dad was fun to watch, even though I hated him for knocking out Duran. Dad had a something like a chip on his shoulder when he fought, you watched him and is looked like he wanted to absolutely destroy his opponent. His punches had snap and follow though.Quote:

That's great but who's going to be the new Fantana? ;DQuote:

As I said he is the new Sven Ottke.Quote:
