Great fight. Big ups to both men. Barkley fought like a warrior and pounded Hearns like no man had ever been pounded before, and Hearns kept coming after him. He got knocked down in Round 4, yet kept coming back for more. Although Hearns lost the fight, he earned the respect of Barkley and anyone who steps between the ropes after this fight. Mad respect to both competitors!

Tommy is the classiest of them all by the way he accepts whatever the decision! For that reason alone Tommy is a great example to all of how to work and respect each other!! In 2021 we need more honest hard working people!! TY Tommy!!! I met him once at a boat show as we were both leaving early in the day and wish I would have told him how proud I was of him, This was in '93 or ''94 probably!! TY Tommy!!

Duran was a quitter...period. he should've taken his Midol before Sugar vs Duran 2...he lost to Wilfredo Benitez...got out into another world by Tommy and Sugar painted a masterpiece in " Uno Mas" and the things Duran did in Montreal were disgraceful. But then again not much education or brains. The only guy who didn't beat him was Hagler.... unfortunately. Duran was a disgrace to boxing.

​@@mechagojira6951in uno mas,while it may he a good fight for Leonard both fighter was clearly just coming for the money, Duràn didn't look as sharp as the one who fought The Blade,and Leonard was like,carrying Duràn a ton too. Then Marvin arguably beat all 3 and Duràn was the only one who came at him when he's still at his prime. Nobody looks good vs Benitez, especially with how Benitez trained for the Duràn fight. Leonard's team thought Duràn was just a cheap stepping stone for their star and set a plan to take out Duràn early inside 4 or 5,yet he survived and gave them their own medicine.

I'll add my 3 cents since this is a much debated question. Tommy didn't have a glass jaw or he wouldn't have won so many fights at so many different weights, but he did have maybe a copper jaw which made him vulnerable at higher weights. Barkley had more of an iron jaw; against Duran he was probably really tired[no discredit to Duran, who fought with incredible skill].

Duran would turn with the punch and it was very difficult for Barkley who punched wide to land a solid shot on him. Duran was never given credit for his defense. Tommy also fought the wrong fight against Barkley. Hearns had great boxing skills and either by choice or be default he got into a close quarter brawl with Barkley. playing right into his hands.

I think Hearns chose the wrong strategy for this fight. He should have consistently moved and out-boxed Barkley from a distance, rather than going for all this close in fighting. I think he would have won the fight if he had done that. It's the same reason Leonard lost his first fight against Duran, but won the second.

⁠@@timpenfield5 I don’t think Hearns was robbed since in the first fight he was clearly out of the feet and was still fighting the in welterweight before moving up to super welterweight / light middleweight. I don’t think Leonard would lose a rematch against a more experienced and more battle hardened Hearns. In their 1981 fight, Leonard and Hearns have the same amount of experience. I have either Leonard winning a UD in a close fight or Leonard winning a TKO in a close fight or Hearns slightly above in points. A rematch between a Prime Leonard vs Prime Hearns 12-15 round fight in the super welterweight / light middleweight or middleweight division with Hearns who is now more experienced and battle hardened would be a great fight, but I still see Leonard winning a TKO slightly above points or Hearns above points or a UD slightly above Hearns in points. Remember Leonard came out of his three year retirement who did not train properly during his hiatus to fight Hagler in 1987, so Hearns has more advantage than the ring-rusted and now father-time and slower Leonard (Leonard is still faster than Hearns but lost speed since the first retirement) in their 1989 rematch. Leonard is more out of his prime than Hagler was. Prime Leonard (before the detached retina if he reaches middleweight) vs Prime Hagler would be a great fight to watch, but I see Leonard winning a UD and almost getting knocked down by Hagler.

Yeah. I always say each fighter has their natural weight and each time they go above it, they face an uphill battle, and Tommy seemed almost unbeatable at welter. I think you can see that here: Barkley is a naturally bigger man than Hearns and had more potential to damage. But Hearns fought a smart fight with unmatched determination--which he showed also in Leonard II--and hurt Barkley many times but just couldn't quite put him down.

Hearns did continue boxing after this match. After this match Hearns won 11 bouts and lost only once in his third before last bout to Uriah Grant I think. Barkley after this fight won 14 bouts and lost 12 with one draw and he lost the last six fights of his career before retiring. Barkley won his next fight after this fight. Then lost the title to James Toney and became champ one more time in 1997.

Hearns did everything he could to win that fight, but it didn't matter. Barkley never really slowed down much, and was in phenomenal shape physically. The only guys Hearns had problems with were guys who had magnificent chins, iron heads, and stayed low. Hearns couldn't keep them off of him, especially as he moved up in weight. Hearns was a very underrated inside fighter, but going up against a prime Barkley was draining for anybody no matter how skilled they were. It cracks me up sometimes to hear corner men, and trainers saying things like, "you are making this fight difficult", "you can make this easy by using your jab on the outside". It's pretty obvious that Hearns tried that approach several times, but it didn't have an effect of Barkley's chin, and when a guy doesn't stop coming forward, and cuts the ring off well, there is nothing else you can do other than try to win the fight on the inside hoping that he tires out, or gets stunned by a punch. Hearns fought a great fight, and he showed he had a great guard in this fight, but Barkley was just one of those guys who was a Joe Frazier type of fighter, and we all know Joe Frazier took years off of Ali in the ring. The difference is that Barkley was a little bit quicker with his feet, and he could cut the ring off a little bit better. Frazier's preferred style of footwork was a little bit different, although he did change his footwork against certain opponents that he had trouble with by using a more traditional style of footwork like in his second fight against Foreman. That gave him more mobility, but it wasn't his natural style. Barkley was like a combination of Frazier, and Foreman as far as his style.

great counterpunch Barkley knocked Hearns down with round 4 . flash knockdown, caught Hearns off balance. announcer full of b.s. saying hearns was hurt by it . this fight goes the distance, with both fighters receiving and punishing each other . lot of cumulative damage to both

Tommy had a weak chin? I always thought people exaggerated. After seeing this one again - i know they were. He had a good chin. Not solid brass - but absolutely not a glass one.

It reminds some of Amir Khan. Tommy backs up with hands down and gets hit a lot flusher than most elite fighters. Most fighters don't get hit with those shots. When Tommy sees the punch coming, he's a lot more durable.

Here's that discussion again. See my 3 cents in the other one. I put Tommy at 'copper', not glass. Great point at how flush he gets hit though. That may apply to virtually any fighter, if you get hit completely unaware like that, it may rock you.

If you notice most boxers who show mental effects of getting hit too much used to be the most exciting boxers in the sport,no matter the era. Barkley was one of those fighters, can't really understand his speech nowadays. And for Tommy as well. Great fighters though but both took alot of punishment upstairs.

Hell of a proud performance by Hearns, he had options to check out in that fight but in true Hitman style he beat the count every time & looked to get straight back out there bounty hunting. 6 rds Barkley with a 10-08, Tommy 1,2 & 8 going into the 9th. Barkley 9, Hearns 10, 11, 12 Barkley was a nightmare, a warrior, the most under rated 3 x weight World Champ in history. Was rd 4 a 10-08? Did Tommy do enough to bring it back to 10-09? Why didn't Barkley lose a point for all the low blows he was landing? That fight could easily have gone Hearns' way. They say Hill was Hearns last great performance but much like Mugabai showed the true essence of WHO Hagler was, this fight showed the true essence of Hearns. Barkley obliterated him in their first meeting, & now 5 years later Hearns is without Emanuel Steward who wanted him to retire, & he knows he is a fading fighter. So what does he do? Does he make 5 soft defenses against fighters ranked 10-15 n milk the title for what cash he can get out of it? No, this is THE HITMAN we are talking about so he seeks out his bogeyman, his last available nightmare n has a showdown with him looking to settle the score. He did more than that, it was an iconic display of will, self belief, courage & Hope. It was almost everything that underpins what is GREAT about boxing. Tommy Hearns was something else. 🥊

Barkley's just one of those fighters who defies logic. Hearns was and always will be the more talented fighter for me yet he lost twice to Barkley. The first one could be argued as a lucky punch from nowhere but the second time was no luck at all, Barkley just roughed him up and stuck to the task for 12 rounds. Punishing fight.
