    I think Griffith has the smarts to keep Hagler tied up with feints as Duran did, and circle just outside Hagler's perimeter and land some combo's as he did with Tiger.

    I think Hagler has more sucess than Tiger as he is better balanced and can force his shots out on Griffith, I think Griffith has the defensive capabilities to handle Hagler's attacks and weather the storm and come back with his own stuff in the close rounds.

    I like a close Griffith decision.

    I don't think so either and Hagler is certainly a level or 2 above Tiger and his pressure probably makes his weight tell
