hearns was really scrambled by that guy barkley, sittin' there at the end trying to get back in sync with reality. dangerous sport.
-
Barkley. A real Rocky story. Not a fake actor!

torr if you look close youll see that Duran did indeed Beat barkley it was close Ill admit but the knockdown won him the fight, Duran admited later that was one of his toughest fights Duran was a great fighter there was a reason he got the decision...and it wasnt a gift
-
@fischparov He didnt really beat Barkley--it was a gift decision. He knocked him down after taking a beating, which shocked everyone. But watch the fight and you see Barkley won 8 rounds easy.
-
hearns had the power to ko most heavyweights..he was a frightening puncher
-
Hearns. Great fighter, but not very hard chin.
-
@lastruebeliever Sure Hagler was the best and I'm from Newark where Hagler is from. Sugar Ray Leonard didn't win Fighter of the Decade for the 80s for nothing.

im a big fan of the four from the 80s duran hagler hearns & leonard how hearns knocked out duran is not surprising roberto was way to small to fight a hitter like hearns still duran was the the best of the four. how was duran able to beat barkley is just amazing, hagler shouldve went in against leonard going for the knockout & he wouldve gotten it...however durans fight with hagler showed leonard, that hagler could be beat

... that punch was far from a lucky shot. Barkley set that shot up... even though he was getting hit for most of the round, he set Hearns up for that right hand.
Iran Balkley was Hearn's worst nightmare!

Up to the knockout, this was a masterful display of punching by Hearns but Barkley must have thrown every ounce of strength in his entire body into his winning punch.
Hearns was a great fighter, despite this loss. You always get value for money with the Hitman, win, lose or draw.
