They both had great power at WW...but Hearns has to be p4p one of the greatest punchers in the history of the sport. As far as all around skill...Tommy was a much better boxer. He had a tremendous jab. His problem was that he could easily be lulled into a brawl and abandon using his great all around skill. Both of them had iffy chins...but i just have a hard time betting against Hearns at Welterweight.
I think with Tito going down frequently in his fights. I would see a quick K.O. for Hearns. Withing 3 rounds.Anothe rgood question would be if Oscar fought Hearns I believe Oscar would probably stop him late like Ray Leonard did.
IT's funny how much people rate Tito Low after his fight with B-hop at 160

I think the comment's are fair bro, Tito was down a lot in the early rounds, and if Hearns put him on the canvas he wouldn't get up. I respect Tito he is great fighter and took a hell of a beating against Hopkins while being way above his weight class. But imo Hearns is a little too much for Tito but thats nothing to be ashamed of because Hearns is too much for most Welterweights.Originally Posted by Puya
Tito as well was too much for most Welterweights with mad power too. So you see at this time both fighters had their legacy at 147 and is written in the history books as the baddest MOFOS of the WW.Originally Posted by Ricardo "Finito" Lopez
So for me it would have been a classic fight without rating any of them low. It's a shame how people forgets TITO's legacy at 147 just because he got outclassed by no other than B-Hop at 160.

Hearns and "tito" weren't in the same league. And from what I can see you agree.Originally Posted by Puya
I'd rather watch tito - Benitez. Watch tito hit air all night long.
You claim he knows nothing about boxing.Originally Posted by Nejo
You then continue by judging potential boxing contests by using countries of origin as a measure of a fighter's worth...

First I am gonna say Hearns, Rd4. Not much different with a few other guys. Tito, out of his range, was not effective (like the way DLH worked him over).
Hearns was so dangerous inside the first 5 rounds, if you couldn't counter and stop him from getting off 100+ knockout intended punches a round... You weren't surviving. And Tito didn't really beat anyone who was a more natural heavier opponents (eg. Hopkins). Let's not forget Hearns went all the way up to Cruiserweight.
also:
I don't think Hearns stayed on the outside and picked Duran apart. as Far as I could see he swung like a bushwhacker on FFW and had him hurt within a minute and out cold within 4 minutes.Yeah, a while back, I think I started a thread like this also. Its a great match, but you gotta go with Hearns. He had equal or greater power to Tito, AND was a so much better boxer. Not to mention his height and reach, he could just stay on the outside and pick Tito apart and do the same to Trinidad as he did to the shorter Duran.
