Marvin Haggler in hth middleweight matchups

He's probably in the top 3.
It's hard to imagine him losing at his absolute peak.

 

I am a big Hagler fan, and I agree he would do well against most previous Middleweight champs. I could see Monzon and Robinson giving him hell, though. The likes of Fullmer and Tiger would give him great fights, too.

 

Over 15 he probably is able to get to Roy.

I think Robinson does him though. On points.

 

Why does everybody keep throwing Monzon in the picture? He was a LHW!!

 

I've never once thought Monzon capable of beating Hagler.

 

I wasn't saying it in an argumentative tone or anything, just an observation that I've had today.

When I think of the type of MW to beat Hagler I've never thought Monzon to possess the right attributes.

 

Only Monzon and an "on" Robinson.

 

I would favor Monzon over him, and it's a pick em with Robinson I'd say Hagler could beat him once and then Robinson would beat him in a rematch.

 

The class is so deep that Hagler's skills could be tested and maybe bested by a number of men. I could reasonably see Greb, Monzon, Walker, Robinson (not until the rematch), LaMotta, Hopkins, Jones Jr., Charles, Moore, Burley, and a number of others beating him.

 

Interesting viewpoint.
