To be technically correct. Hagler would still have been a MW, GGG who normally walks into the ring at 170ish would have had to campaign at 168 or 175 as weigh ins were done the day of the fight during those times. GGG to stay MW would have had to keep his weight down.
Both like to walk down their opponents. Hagler has a great chin he took Hearns and Mugabi's best shots but this isnt Hearns or Mugabi. This is GGG. Dont think Hagler has ever took anything close to a GGG body shot in his career. Haglers chin is the chin all others are compared to but GGG has better chin. I grew up watching Hagler and GGG is better. The one thing Hagler beats him in at this point is Hagler has a better resume. GGG GOAT at 160, 34-0 31 kos Foreman GOAT Heavy, at 42 George was 69-2 65 kos 56 in the first 4 rounds. My opinion.
Imagine what would happen to Marvin if he walked head first into brutal GGG counters like he did with Leonard.:deal
Wylan is just a bitter black dude who hates white people and he can't stand that the white russians own boxing now.
People will glamorize Hagler because he fought when boxing was huge in America. Boxing is an afterthought now in the "other sports" section of most web pages. He was amazing, don't get me wrong...but it's always been that way. No current fighter (from any generation) could beat so-and-so from way back in the day according to aficionados.
