Okay, burt.

By the way, did you ever see Jimmy Crow Macgnon fight Neal Anderthal at the Eastern Parkway Arena back in '49 ?
They were a couple of ancient clubfighters, no fancy dans, you could say primitive skills. They knew how to pack a hall though, it was a mammoth event.

No U, not old enough to see the Macgnon/ Anderthal bout. My first main event bout was when David a mere stripling of a lad , smote Goliath in
2 rounds. Quite an upset that eventful night. I recall the 4 round debut of
a youngster with the name of Bernard Hopkins if my memory is correct...
Ah those were the days when men were men I say !!! No travel by airplanes from city to city, the fighters traveled by camel, always looking for a hump...Yes the good old says...

Is there actually a reason for everybody here dismissing this? Is it just more fun to dismiss it? Cause all i can really see is that i've given valid reasons and the 2 pictures easily showing that Hagler looks exacly like it and you've all kind of just said no with no actual reason behind it...
I mean i know you think it's pretty funny but i've been the one making the most sense on here believe it or not i've given pictures and talked about it ect ect and none of you have really given any smart feedback, or atleast a good reason to proove that im wrong

I don't know if I would have brought up the origins of man, just put it down to varying skull shapes in modern humans, but yes you do have a point in that Hagler's skull shape is perhaps indicative of a propensity to absorb punishment. It is clear to see that, if hit on the jaw, the pivot-like motion of the head that bounces the brain around inside would have been lessened. Add to that an allegedly thicker temporalis, strong neck, iron will and a good habit for keeping the chin tucked and you have a very durable boxer.

Hagler had a thicker than usual skull according to one of his doctors.

Not skull Temporalis muscle, which i've read some people say that was usual to men around the time i am talking about... hence why i made this thread, and the men around this time were also averaging the exact same height as Marvin, just my thought though dosent really matter if you dont believe me...

I didn't say I disbelieve you, I just remember a doctor saying he had a thicker than usual skull.
