Just how good was Iran Barkley?

Iran is, to me, the "abortion topic" of boxing. You argue that he is a Hall of famer and I wont argue back. You argue that he is not, and I wont argue back either. I am on the fence!!!!!

Against SRL, he loses on points after giving the sugary one a tough fight, maybe even an early knockdown. Against Hagler as a Middleweight, he lasts 4 or 5 rounds, in 1983-84, and goes to the tenth or 11th like John Mugabi in 1985-87, but it surely would be widely entertaining!
