Thomas "Hit Man" Heams earned his nickname by knocking out 45 of his opponents. He held five title belts; four of which were from different classes: WBC and WBA light heavyweight. WBC middleweight, WBC jr. middleweight and WBA Welterweight. In 1989, his much anticipated rematch against Sugar Ray Leonard ended in a controversial draw. These fight-worn gold trunks has "Hearns" embroidered on the waistline in blue large block letters. "Hit Man" is stitched at the bottom left side. Heams autographed the trunks in blue Sharpie, "Thomas Hit Man Hearns". The signature rates a solid 9.
