    You have to admit Blocker was a finished fighter by the time Tito destroyed him. Not the same fighter that fought a tough fight against Lloyd Honeyghan.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    The style of Hearns is all wrong for Trinidad. As much as I like Tito he gets absolutely brutalized in this one. Hopkins KO'd Trinidad, Hearns would KO Trinidad. The jab alone would take Trinidad out of the fight.


    I still think Trinidad vs Mosley would have been epic if they met in their primes

    Watching Hearns irritates me. It really does. It almost hurts my eyes to see that languid, loose slackness. I actually Hate it. I'm a tall guy and I can't imaging wanting to be that loose. Nothing is tight about his style.

    It obviously works for him and I'm sure in his mind, he needs to be as loose as possible to get in his 'mode' but it has also been his undoing on a number of occasions, so I can see why he'd be prone to getting bowled over by a Tito onslaught.

    But undeniably, everything else points to Hearns for the win.

    He was definitely a spent shell and shouldn't have been allowed to fight Norris let alone out for the second round. Great frame but I even had Garcia edging him. This early Tito was picking bones for his inaugural strap. Hearns right would have been hellacious on him.
