Who would win between Thomas Hearns and Marlon Starling?

Question

In a 15 round bout at 147?

Answer 1

No doubt I believe Hearns in a 7th round KO. His constant jabs and movement would bother M Starling and unsettle him. I believe Starling would lose all of the rounds and start pressing and get careless and get hit with a Hearns counter right coming in. Kind of another Pipino Cuevas KO. Also, not sure if M Starling can take a heavy Hearns right. Between the left jab and the heavy right, Hearns in a walkover in 7 and Hearns will pitch a shutout.

Answer 2

HEARNS - W 61 (KO's 48) TF 67 - W pct 91% - KO pct 72% - wins over Duran, Benitez, V. Hill and Cuevas - KO' ed by Leonard, Hagler and Barkley - #18 ranked puncher - #67 ranked fighter
Much better boxer than given credit for

STARLING - W 45 (KO's 27) TF 53 - W pct 85% - KO pct 51% - wins over F. Mayweather Sr, Honeyghan and Breland - KO'ed by none
Came up short in several bouts (lost by decision to Curry[2], Nunn and Blocker)

I do think that Starling might would be able to withstand Hearns' punches. After Hearns see that he can't KO Marlon, he will box his way into a 15 rd easy unanimous decision.

Answer 3
