This man went from 147 to Cruiser. He was a champ in 6 weight classes and nobody talks about it.

This guy sparred Muhammad Ali, and Ali literally said that he hits damn hard. Imagine what boxers of his weight have felt. The original Hitman for sure.

'The man who rules his left, rules the world.' Such a mastery of left hand and with the chopping right, he was one of the most feared fighter of all time.

The fact that he won so many titles and only lost against two legends says it all about his ferocius determination.

I love the fact that Tommy was willing to fight anyone,unlike the boxers these days.
What a real boxing legend who deserves so much respect for what he brought to the gane

Thomas Hearns doesn't get nearly the respect he deserves.  This documentary was awesome!

Finally. Literally the only Thomas Hearns documentary on youtube.

I'm so glad he made one on this man. He was truly an amazing boxer.

Tommy's punches were like lightning strikes. DEADLY. LEGEND.

Thomas Hearns as a welterweight is almost unfair lol. His unicornish build at that weight, with an INSANE reach, hand speed, while having that kind of power is something you just never see.

Had he played it smart, instead of being the warrior he was, he never would have lost in that division.

Such a great fighter, and was a problem for almost every fighter he ever faced, in MULTIPLE divisions.

One of the coolest nicknames too.

I once saw tommy walked passed me  through a casino, I said “tommy” he stopped looked at me smiled put his hand out and I shook it. THAT MANS HAND FELT LIKE A FUCKING BRICK MAN.

My main man Thomas “Hitman” Hearns finally recognised. I still love him to death, stay blessed Champ. I once traveled from Sweden to Detroit to meet him in the Kronks gym and had a chance to talk to him on phone a couple of times, of which I thank the Hitman for giving me that chance. I truly love him dearly.

I grew up on the east side of Detroit and watched most of these fights on TV as a kid. I ran around the room cheering when Tommy won and cried when he lost. I had an Incredible Hulk inflatable punching bag and would pretend I was Tommy Hearns exacting his revenge on Sugar Ray. Then one day, decades later, he walked into my Wizards of the Coast retail store to buy booster boxes of Pokemon cards for his son. On a whim I asked him for a fist bump with the hand he broke over Hagler's head and he smiled and laughed and quickly obliged. Thanks for the memories, Tommy.

When all is said and done Thomas "The Hitman Hearns" is the all-around GOAT

The incomparable Motor City Cobra; Tommy looked like the perfect fighter, slim, muscular w/an impossible reach. His fights w/Hagler, Leonard & Duran were era defining. I watched them all, wincing constantly, feeling every punch. I don’t expect to see such battles ever again.

I coached a youth Bball team when I was 19. Hearns sponsored a team we played against. His team was gigantic and were creaming mine lol. At the end my team wanted me to get in and play (I'm 5'11" but they called me Baby-Jordan). Tommy and I agreed to play the last few minutes. The kids basically let us have a dunk contest and let me tell you: Tommy Hearns was amazing. I jumped from the bottom of the circle once and threw down a 2 hander - Tommy not only matched the distance, he was practically horizontal when he flushed it; it was unreal. That dude woulda excelled at any sport he wanted to play. Phenomenal athlete.

he's the only human being alive who knows what it was like to fight in The War.

R.I.P. Marvelous Marvin

Can't lie.....the boxing and mma videos are my favorite ones

Thomas "The Hit Man" Hearns is a true champion.  Six World Titles nobody has matched, even today! Thank you, Tommy, for your great contribution to the sport of boxing, you're a legend!
