    As far as weight I reckon he'd do pretty much the same as Martinez. 154-160.

    He's not gonna go up and fight the likes of Ward and Froch, they're far too big.

    *Sigh*

    This is true.

    As badass and much of an ATG Hagler was, he wasnt interested in Spinks. He's pretty much the definition of a natural middleweight and saw fit to compete and carve out his legacy there exclusively. It wouldnt be as big of a jump, but I doubt he goes there.

    Youve just summed up GG "Mayweather Annihilaor" G perfectly


    Still feel your doing Marvin an injustice though


    Crazy thing is, if Marvin was fighting today, both he and GGG would demand the fight

    Marvin was a Middle weight his entire career as an amateur and professional I don't see him moving up or down from that weight..

    And the weight cutting technology is **** these days , Marvin fought at a time when it was same day weigh ins , he entered the ring at 159 to 160 and he stayed in shape year round.. All this proves he would be a 160lb fighter even today.

    He'd beat Bebuit Shemenov and Adonis Stevenson at 175 for sure.

    Not sure about the Cruiserweight champions but I wouldn't rule it out.

    Sadly, no it wasn't. Hagler would get to Mayweather eventually, even if Mayweather did his Usain Bolt impression for as long as he could.

    Of course Mayweather would never have fought Hagler so the point is moot.

    Floyd would never ever ever ever step in the ring with Hagler.

    Hagler was "Marvelous" for a reason.
    He'd clean out the division if he were around today, and would end the GGG hype.

    He could win a trinket off someone at 175 easily.

    Getting beat by Hagler doesn't necessarily mean your a hype job.

    Getting outboxed by Maidana when your meant to be the new Floyd Mayweather however....

    What's your proof of that mate?

    NO ONE has come remotely close to even puting a dent in GGG

    Curtis is a heavy hitter - when he hit GGG flush, the guy barely turned his head. It was like something out of the Terminator movie

    Hagler was an absolute monster, arguably the GOAT at 160

    But there's nothing to say he would beat GGG as GGG hasnt shown the slightest hint of a creak in the armour
