i think if you go back and count all the rounds up, you give it to hearns cause of the knockdowns, but the fight itself still feels close, cause ray hurt hearns just as many times as hearns hurt him, and might have hurt him more. a lot of people, myself included, feel that hearns was lucky it was a 12 round fight, on the account that hearns looked like he was going to get knocked out again the way ray had him staggering all over the ring late in the fight same way he did in the first fight. you can watch the last round of that fight again and tell me if you think hearns would have lasted through three more rounds of that.

It's one of the rare draw scores I can agree with.
Durability was always a factor between those two because no matter how bad Ray would look he always turned it around and hurt Hearns even worst. Throughout the fight it felt like Ray was always a punch or two away from brutally stopping Tommy.

Definitely agree that if it was 15 rds, then Hearns is outta there like the first fight.

Y'all can shyt on my logic or whatever but i'm going to keep it real, I wouldn't give Crawford a undisputed fight if I was the 3 belt holder on PBC until Crawford either comes over to PBC or he steps up his opposition and earn it.

No way in hell is it fair for the PBC champ to fight 4 welterweights who would rank as Crawford best opponent while Crawford can chill on Top Rank and fight bums I feel Adrien Broner would probably beat.

First time I've heard bivol's name in a minute. Depends on if it's the bivol we saw show out against Barrera, or the boring af fighter since then
