Fantasy matchup: Hearns vs Trinidad
Two big welterweight punchers from different eras. Who wins?
Give as much detail as you’d like.

Re: Fantasy matchup: Hearns vs Trinidad
I feel like Tommy wins this fight more often than not. Obviously Tito is a big enough puncher that you can't count him out, but Hearns is an even bigger puncher, and is a far superior boxer.
As long as he doesn't fight foolishly, and uses the best of his abilities, I honestly think Hearns should be able to make this one look easy.

Tommy would wreck Trinidad, anything is possible in this game on paper but I wonder who gives Tito a shot.

I don’t think this would be close at all...
Hearns does everything better...

Only thing Trinidad has here is better stamina. Doubtful he gets the chance to use it.
Re: Fantasy matchup: Hearns vs Trinidad
Hearns...bigger puncher and Tito didn't have the best chin. Tito more compact on the inside and trading sequences so Hearns jab and straight punch arsenal would be key imo

It would still be interesting, though, because Tito can always unload a big shot and Tommy could be wobbled.
I think that Tommy's length and boxing abilities would be way too much for Trinidad without the equalizer, though. It is one of those fights, however, where I wouldn't count Tito out until he was on the mat or the final bell had rung.

This one is over, and completely one sided by everyone’s vote. On to the next one.

Re: Fantasy matchup: Hearns vs Trinidad
I did by accident. Hearns would box his way to a unanimous decision. Tommy would have to be careful though, if he gets Trindad in trouble Trindad had tendency to foul and the last thing you do against Trindad is leave your chin exposed leaning over because of a low blow.

Ya Tommy was taking shots south of the border from Hagler and look what that did to him,ForceFed_231 wrote: ↑Sun May 24, 2020 5:14 pmI did by accident.

Re: Fantasy matchup: Hearns vs Trinidad
Two of my all time favorites. Hearn had too many tools. He could fight long and out jab Tito and pivot all day. Tito's chance would be to goad Hit into a war, bang to the body and clip him with the lead hook, needing to finish. Have to go with Kronk here.
