As much as I love Tito, I think Floyd neutralizes his left hook and outboxes him to a UD.

There's very few fighters off the top of my head that I'd pick H2H against Floyd. But Tito ain't one of them. He'd have a better chance at 154, but not 147

vernon forrest?

I love Tito but I think hes being a little overrated when it come to defeating Floyd. Money wins this fight at 147&154, all I see is what Tito does and not how he would win, he's not out boxing Floyd so lets get that out of the way, the ONLY way he wins is by KO and I've never seen Floyd KO'd or even dropped for a second....but I've seen Tito go down. What defense would Tito use for Floyd's counter punching and footwork? Tito is my dude but he won't win. Vernon? This isPrime Floyd we're talking about right? Not today's 37 year old slow Floyd. The only one I can see beating PRIME Floyd is Leonard.

Hearns has a better chance of beating prime Floyd than Leonard

Bigger, stronger, better boxer, has an excellent jab and a monster right. Leonard has great power, but Hearns had even more. Hearns never struggled with boxers, it was always brawlers/hard punchers that gave him trouble. Floyd would have an extremely hard time boxing Hearns due to the size and strength. He's gonna get hit, and it's gonna be hard to generate anything of his own. I think Leonard would beat Floyd too, but he had alot more trouble with skilled boxers than Hearns did.

In your initial line, who are you comparing Hearns to, Sugar or Floyd? Because I don't see him as a better boxer than either. Hearns was TKO'd by Sugar, correct? So where does him being bigger, stronger and a better boxer work for him vs. Sugar? Hearns struggled with Sugar. Anyway, Floyd would seemingly have a hard time boxing Hearns, but what about the hard time Hearns would have boxing Floyd? Yes Floyd will get hit, and? Floyd has show his incredible beard over his whole career and I've yet to see him drop, I've seen Tommy get the daylights beat out of him by Blade and Marvin, I say this because we know Hearns hits like a heavy but let's not act like some boxers didn't eat his punches like Scooby Snacks either. His jab would pose a threat to Floyd, it was long and hard (no @Tuaminator ) but I think Floyd counters that jab as the fight wears on and as the water gets deeper. In the end I think Floyd's defense is too good for Tommy. Interesting fight nevertheless.

Hearns did not struggle with Leonard. In the 1st fight he got KO'd, but he was outboxing Ray the whole fight and was winning on all cards. Leonard had to pull one out of his ass to get that W. Not to mention he beat Ray in the rematch but Leonard was given a gift draw.

Floyd has a chin yes, but we've never seen him up against somebody with the power that Hearns possesses. And the size would put Floyd at an incredible disadvantage, because he can't just dodge all Hearns punches and pot shot him. He'd have to open up and throw, which would leave him right in the line of fire to get hit with some brutal shots. Plus Floyd doesn't have the power that Leonard, Hagler, and Barkley have.

Hearns went up against Wilfred Benitez, one of the greatest defensive fighters of all time. And beat him. I see a fight with Floyd being similar to that
