Tommy Hearns

[Toowon]

Boxing fans! Does anyone know if Hearns wore crimson trunks at any time in his career? I know early on he had white trunks with "TH" and he had his famous yellow KRONK HITMAN style trunks plus a few other styles. Anyone from Detroit or just big Hitman fans remember him in crimson? Thanks!

Hi all,
Toowon, I actually know Tommy's Brother, Johnny Hearns. I went to school with him and he still works in the city and plays ball with me sometimes at the local gym here. I can ask him next time I see him if you have any specific questions you want answers to? Let me know.

Steve,

That would be nice of you! Ask him why he didn't put away Sugar in the second fight;)
I was wondering if he ever wore red trunks that said HEARNS and KRONK in yellow. Thanks!

Well you're welcome for all my help too. :rolleyes:

Bravesfan- thanks for your research!! I really do appreciate it. People on this site are always so nice and helpful.( Though I'm still not over Francisco Cabrera and Sid Bream just yet. Let's go Bucs!)
