Hagler would have to resort to a boxer's approach for this one. From the southpaw stance, he would make use of a steady right jab. Box, move and jab...the only way to beat Tiger at middleweight.

You have capsuled it well.

Yes Indeed, Marvin had Versatility to deal with Dicks Straight Line Approach, The Lessons Marvin learned in Philly on the way up against Hart and Briscoe would enable him to Matador Dick, As he was to do in the early rounds against such as Sibson, Roldan and Hamsho, Dick was tough and as resolute as hell, but nobody says Marvin has to Knock Dick out to win, Points will do just Fine, and he gets a bigger share than Dick in my humble onion !

I think Hagler beats ANY middleweight who fights aggressively and comes straight at him...even the great Dick Tiger.
Hagler decision.

Depends if Haglers pride gets the better of him. He can certainly outbox Tiger but I wouldnt be surprised if he stubbornly tried to go head to head to prove a point. I think this would turn the fight in Tigers favour

Hagler was a level above Tiger which will upset a few people in here.

One of the best MW bouts ever. Tiger is bigger and stronger. However, the versatile Hagler, through superior boxing technique, will most likely earn a decision.
