Hearns was also fast but not as quick as Floyd.
I am not familiar with Hearns at all. Never seen him fight don't know his record but I think your brief description of his style makes sense that Floyd would do well against that particular style. I think after the Maidana fight we got a taste of what can beat Floyd.
Well I was only a little kid when he was prominent but based on what I have seen, namely his famous fights, he was very very good, one of the best. But does get widely overrated as most famous boxers both past and current do. But Floyd is Floyd.

I would say that Floyd is the undisputed greatest wanker in history of the sport too if it weren't for his little brother Adrien Broner lol
