we are talking about a fight at middleweight.

what about if mcllelan moved down welter which is were hearns was best at.

Fair enough....Cant Fathom Gerald Going down to 147 since he was a natural Middleweight

I have a sparring match from 1990 where Tommy Hearns is sparring Gerald McClelland. ... Good matchup. Atlantic City.

Can you post a link....I would appreciate it ;)

give me a few weeks. I might try and make an account on youtube since alot of fights are on there. The matched was taped at a far enough away distance, and both Tommy and Gerald are announced. I think it is 3 rounds.

Well shit welcome anyway even if it is your 10th time or whatever......

cool thanks. As far as McClelland vs. Hearns. Problem with this fight is timing. By the time Gerald was fighting, Hearns was on the downside. Hearns would have had trouble with McClelland. I will try and get that sparring session on. although I am not sure what it shows as far as who would win. What I remember is Gerald trying to get Tommy on the ropes and landing occasionally and Hearns boxing and jabbing and landing occasional right hands. It was from April 1990 when Tommy was preparing for Michael Olajide

In their respective primes Hearns wins because he catches G-Man early with a HARDER punch and doesn't stop til Gerald is TKO'd

I'm not trying to be a dik but have you ever seen Gerald McClellan fight....Do you know how many 1st round KO's the man had??? Tommy would be lured into a slugfest about 15 seconds into the fight instead of Boxing Gerald....Gerald was a freak and when the bell rang he only had 1 speed and that was 10000000mph..The bombs he hit Benn with would of destroyed Tommy period....Dont let what happened against Benn fool anyone Nigel got some big time homecookin, Nigel Benn was getting pounded while he was hung up on the ropes and wasnt able to intelligently able to defend himself he got TKO'd....BUT!!!! A crooked referee let the fight continue and Held Gerald back on 2 occasions during the 1st round to let Benn get his witts back....The truth is Gerald was a Murderous puncher and could KO hearns in a gunfight...If not convinced of the outcome go watch the Hagler fight...Hagler could punch but not nearly as hard as Gerald McClellan...in a shoot out Gerald would KO Tommy Hearns..

---

Hagler fight isn't a good comparison imo, because I don't think McClellan could have stood up to the barrage that Marvin did, not in any way.

I think the fight would have had to happen at 154 or 160 and that would be both of their primes
