Duran went 15 close rounds with a fully fledged MW in Hagler but got battered at LM by Hearns.

Tito's a very good fighter but Hearns would have KO'd him. He knew how to jump on a guy and Tito's chin was there to be hit.
Lol... You mention tito's chin ..

What about hearn's

Frankly tito has a very good chin.. the only time he was ever stopped obv hopkins who broke him down and gave him a boxing lesson..

it took a long hard time to actually hurt tito.. And he was still up at nine..

hearns however didnt have a terrible chin..But it wasnt strong..

Basically hearns is a great boxer and i think he could mix his boxing and power punch his way to keeping tito off him for long enough.. But no way he stops tito.. There wouldnt be enough method to hearns taking the rounds...He would have to be prepared to take shots to get his off over the long run as he is no defensive master as hopkins is..

It would be tito ko within 5 or hearns by decision..

But i stand by hearns decision.. As he was a great boxer and i think alytough possibly rocked he at least equals titos hight as not many do and he makes it a boxing match early

Talk about a fighht between tall welters of all time :P
