Antuofermo (first fight)
As Mante said, Hagler has quite a few interchangeables, with the likes of Sibson, Duran, Minter, Mugabi etc.
Looking at those lists I'd go Robinson a clear no.1, with Hagler and Monzon pretty close, but perhaps the slightest of edges to Monzon.

I like SS's list except for a few picks; Briscoe in for Fernandez for Monzon and Sibson in for Leonard (thought he beat Hagler) for Marvin...Also Duran would have a shot at beating Roldan or Hamsho (imo)...also Mugabi should be in there for Vito....Anyway I think Robinson's overall comp is best but I judge Rodrigo Valdez pretty highly, he could possibly be the best (most dangerous) of the contenders mentioned.
