The Fabulous Four

Duran because he was fantastic. But for his agressiveness I always like hagler.

 

Hagler-Duran was not a draw or even that close. Clear win for Hagler.

Hearns had a competitive 90 seconds against Hagler before getting walked down for 2 and a half rounds.

Hagler won that fight clearly, whats the Moore fight got to do with the Hagler decision?

 

Hagler at middleweight I agree with Gaz Oc was a great fighter and that fight with hearns was brilliant trading toe to toe for three rounds.

 

Not even the biggest Duran fans on here (and there are a lot!!) think he won the Hagler fight.

 

It's SRL but I like Hagler the best.

 

I think Leonard's records proves he was the best. Duran's record was the worst against the 4. I think Duran was overrated in his career. Hearns was probably the most underrated. And Hagler goes down about right. The knock on Marvin was that he never really beat an ATG moving up in weight like the other guys did.

 

Duran won like 4 rounds, maybe 5 against Hagler. Those judges were drunk and gave him way too many rounds, just like they did a year earlier when he fought Benitez and one idiot had Benitez ahead by 1 point after 15. Hagler-Duran is perhaps the most overrated "close" fight ever.

That said, Duran probably gets the edge over the other 3 due to his whole career, particularly the fact that he, among with Monzon, was the greatest fighter of the 70s, and a top 2 lightweight (a traditional division rich in history) of all-time.

Leonard would be in the 2nd spot, followed by Hagler, then Hearns.

 

I always thought Hearns was underrated and Duran overrated. Hearns win against Virgil Hill is better than any of Duran's wins at lightweight.

 

all four great in their own right hagler buy far my favorite of four in terms ofbest its between duran an leonard most versatile worldclass in4to5 weight class hearns also world class atg but had weakist chin of the four to be fair only world class tested that chin to sum up toss up duran leonard

 

I think honestly it has to be Leonard in head to head matchups. He beat them all. That was impressive. Although Ray had the least fights in his career only 40.

 

Hearns is often remembered unfairly as a "loveable loser", for the losses to Hagler and Leonard. I've even heard people compare Fernando Vargas to Hearns. Yeah Hearns lost to Marvin & Ray, and Tommy also beat Cuevas, Hill, Duran, and Benitez.
