BOXING LEGEND TOMMY HEARNS ON WILDER-FURY 2, FURY MOVE TO KRONK GYM & WILDER PUNCHING POWER

[@manofbeard]

Back in the day Tommy was a magnificent Boxer. He was a real joy to watch when he was in the ring. He was a part of an era that will never see the like of again.

[@gtrriffs]

What a era.A great time boxing.

[@peterbalac1915]

We were spoiled Epic fights and we got to watch them for free in all the weight divisions. My wife used to say why have you got yr fists clenched when I was watching these fights? 😂 I remember after Tommy lost to hagler after the fight marvin said to Larry merchant THE HITMAN GOT HIT its funny I couldn't tell you what I did yesterday these days.No disrespect to Tommy he was one hell of an exciting boxer and a great champion.

Let's just all show some respect here for this great great legend. From memory he's a 5 weight world champion from welterweight all the way to light heavyweight. Tommy was involved in so many great fights. Complete respect. He was a great in an era with other greats. I urge people to read the book four Kings. Leonard, hagler, hearns and Duran fantastic read. Thank u for the memories tommy

He also had some fights at cruiserweight.

Hearns, Hagler, sugar Ray, Duran. What an era. Some of the most magnificent fights ever seen.

[@matthewmerritt7966]

Tommy Hearns fought everybody. Didn't duck nobody. He instilled fear and concern in his opponents; especially when he was a freak of nature at Welterweight. It was unheard of at the time in the late 70s and early 80s to see a Welterweight at 6'1", 78" Reach, and a could throw every punch in the book with KO written on it. Mainly that devastating right hand. As a teen and later a young adult, I always looked forward to a Hearns fight. Action packed and exciting! The Showdown against SRL (9/16/81) and The Fight against Hagler (4/15/85) are my favorites but I also enjoyed his matches against Duran & Benitez too.

Boxing sure takes a toll on the fighters. I am a big Hearns fan and it hurts seeing him this way. Then I remember how fortunate I am to be from that era that had fighters like Hearns, Leonard, Hager, Camacho, Duran, and other boxing legends in the ring giving it all they had. It was the golden age of boxing. I doubt if the sport will ever be as talent laced as it was then. And in my mind there was no one better than the Hit Man.

I will never forget when Tuesday night fights did a twelve days of Christmas song where fighters would sing and Tommy Hearns sang a small part (5 golden rings). You couldn't understand anything that he was saying and the only way that you knew was because you knew the song and knew what he was supposed to sing. Tommy Hearns an all time legend and one of the greatest to ever lace up the gloves. He reminds all the fans just how dangerous and damaging the sport can be on the fighters who fight the fight.
