Hearns vs Duran - June 1984

[Mars_ax]

Good quality full fight video of Thomas Hearns vs. Roberto Duran, I can't ever recall Tommy looking sharper then he was in this fight, it was man against boy @154 for Hearns' WBC Jr. Middleweight title. Someone forgot to tell Tommy that Duran was a legend and an all-time great, holding his own but losing a decision to Marvin Hagler for the Middleweight title in his last fight. To Duran's credit he wasn't afraid to fight anyone and everyone, but Hearns was like a fukin' buzz saw that night.

Don't have time to watch it right now but that is one of the best ko's i've ever seen.

Tommy was great that night , id have loved him to fight a prime Julian Jackson at LMW ,
bombs away.

Yeah, Jackson was hell when he was well, too bad he didn't stay in the game a little longer. I believe if Ray Leonard had fought this sharper, stronger version of Hearns that we see in his fight with Duran, Leonard vs Hearns I, would have seen an entirely different outcome. Tommy looked drained at WW, but great @154.

I think that it's an underrated win considering that Duran took Haggler the distance and fought on for many more years even after that.

Hearns is really unappreciated he was a great fighter who just happened to lose to the second greatest welterweight ever and possibly the greatest middleweight ever. Hearns was a monster puncher and all action. My favourite form the fab four.
