    A year later after their classic war,Hearns developes into a stronger middleweight while Hagler shows signs of fading. Hearns fights more intelligent,his lags are strong,and his hand remains intact. What whould the result be? Sure it's been brought up before,but what a quick war the first one was.

    Even if Hearns boxed the second time around and Marvin was half the man he was before, I think this one is a tossup. I'll say Hagler UD or late round TKO, provided Marvin's not totally shot.

    Tommy is in my top 5 favourite boxers of all time but id still favour hagler,probably by ko in around 11-12 rounds

    This fight always screamed 'late k.o Hagler' and that's what I'd pick for a rematch.
