Just turned on surprise to see a tickle under the ribs can sink a pro fighter nowadays.

That reminds me of a time when boxing was good.

As an impressionable lad I was in awe of the footage coming from a Thomas 'The Hitman' Hearns training camp.
Tommy H was laying on the floor.
His trainer was kneeling next to him.
The trainer was lifting a medicine ball above his head, and throwing it down on Tommy's stomach.
Hearns doubled up all but headbutting his knees.
This continued all the time the camera was on him.




A couple of weeks later Marvelous Marvin beat The Hitman, predominately with body shots.

Fury v Fury, who would win?

I dont think that they would ever fight but should it happen I would say that Hughie is by far the better boxer but not sure that he would have the strength to beat Tyson. I also think that against AJ he wouldnt have the height and reach advantage that he had against Sexton so would expect AJ to beat him but not as easily as he will beat Tyson Fury.
