    The Mugabi that fought Hagler, vs. the present day Kelly Pavlik.

    Who wins, how and why?

    Pavlik on the basis of Mugabi never winning a fight vs anyone of note.

    Mugabi gave Hagler hell for the first half of their fight. I don't think Pavlik would have made it into the second of this fight, no way he could withstand Mugabi's early onslaught. What a war this would have been though.

    Big fan of Hagler but he was cleary on the slide, coming off a layoff to. Mugabi's chin will explode vs Pavlik like it did in all his major fights.

    Who is that in your avatar?

    Also, I think Mugabi wins this by KO.

    Mugabi would make this very excting, but stylistically he would not have a chance of a snow ball in hell. He'd come out guns blazing, and find out he's shooting a 38 special at a guy who has body armor and a 44 magnum!

    A bit of hyperbole, yep, but Mugabi was a guy who would be a great opponent for KP.

    You reckon Kell hits that much harder?

    Not that I know anything about guns mind you.
