    Hagler on points he has done it once he can do it again, he boxers benny of the back foot and takes home the points win, breaking his hand on bennie's head along the way

    Bennie was way past his prime when Hagler beat him. Monzon actually beat Bad Bennie at his best, on the other hand. Still, though I think a fighter of Bennie's strength and style would always pose problems for Hagler, I think the Marvelous One's skills would prevail in the end.

    Hafler by decision in a competitive fight. Ultimately Hagler fends off Briscoe's body assault with his own and outboxes him throughout the last few rounds. Close but clear; Hagler.

    hagler wins a close but clear decision


    hagler uses his jab and boxing skills early then goes into the trenches and wins rounds close but clearly to take a 9-6
    verdict

    as always, Marvin. Marvin has a much greater supply of skills, both offensively and defensively to call upon. Bennie is pretty much a one dimensional fighter, straight ahead slugger; I don't see Marvin having much problem
