Golovkin vs Hagler. Who wins?

Such a strange phenomenon on here but active boxers always do really bad against Hall of Famers

 

One day we might look back and argue favourably for Golovkin here but right now he isn't proven enough to be considered superior to Hagler imo.

 

Hagler is arguably the GOAT at 160 you have to go with Hagler.

 

Hagler is one of the best at 160 of all time.

Golovkin a long way away from being at that level yet.

 

Totally agree. Hagler beat nearly everyone (except SRL) that was offered up over many years. GGG is possibly great but at this stage we do not know. Have to go with Hagler. Other point H to H is that Hagler a great chin and would handle GGG power better than anyone I can think of.

 

Hagler

Golovkin is a fighter that is a standout performer but he simply can't be judged with hagler in a H2H match-up at this time let's wait until he wins the other belts at middle if he can get the other champions in the ring

 

It could all be that GGG beats him, even stops him. I'll take a better guess at the end of GGG's career.


But based on what we've seen so far, I'd have to pick Marvin.

 

Hagler walked through Hearn's best shots.

I like GGG but his best wins are against club fighters in comparison.

 

prime hagler would beat up ggg, because

Hagler could box from either stance and going backwards,, plus he could turn into a monster and walk you down,,,


1. hagler could handle ggg's power

2. hagler is more diversied figher, being able to switch stances

3. hagler would be able to back GGG up, and eventually would move him against the ropes and would be able to unload on GGG

4. hagler is a style nightmare for ggg,, all of ggg strengths will be nullified by hagler, and all his weaknesses would be exploited by hagler,,,

5. hagler is just a better fighter all around than GGG

 

Too soon for this one. I respect Marvin and he's got too much of a track record for me to pick GGG. Ask again in five years, and we'll see.

 

hearns came closest to stopping hagler, he hardly "walked through", which suggests he was untroubled.

ggg. hagler is 60!

 

hagler wins he does every thing better and wont be intimidated by ggg.also hagler has an iron chin.

 

I like GGG but it's too soon for this,wait until his career is over before comparisons can be made with ATG's like Hagler.
I will say though apart from all his other attributes that I don't think I ever saw a fighter with a better chin than Haglers, I virtually don't recall him ever being wobbled, and he fought and beat punchers like Hearns, Mugabi,Roldon,Briscoe and Sibson.
