Maybe De la Hoya or Mosely could have taken that power for a bit, but I am thinking that even those guys (who had really solid chins) would wither under those shots
Arguello was a powerful hitter. I wouldn't put that to Pryor's discredit quite too much.

Interesting enough that you referred to a professional Hearns as "all growed up." Jogged my memory I bit. Hearns barely got any knockouts as an Amatuer. He used his boxing skills to beat everybody in the beginning. He didn't develop his punch until he got into the professional game.

Hearns was certainly fantastic. If the guy had an iron chin, he'd have been unstoppable. Imagine how much of a monster he would have been with an iron chin and excellent skills on the inside.

My imagination is running away from me. I apologize.
