I would go as far to say that Hearns in his prime swats harder than Chuck Liddell. Boxers spend there lives training to do only three things. To deliver a punch, to take a punch and to aviod a punch. All of the other training can fall into that area. I love laughing at these guys swinging with both hands chins hanging out not using the front to jab not using the back throw a power punch. This is why boxers have to wear pillows on there hand as some jackass newbe said. Put it this way. Would you feel more comfortable taking on on the chin from a prime Tito Ortiz or would you feel more safe taking on on the chin From a prime Mike Tyson. Both wearing no gloves.
