    What win would you say best demonstrates Haglers full array of skills while also at his peak physical prime?

    Always liked him vs Mugabi, even though he'd slipped by then. The way he came on at the end, when you'd expect the younger lion to do so, was epic.

    The first Hamsho fight. Hamsho was seriously tough.

    Minter or Sibson very upsetting as a young lad watching your British heroes getting hammered by some nasty bald headed American. Hagler in early 80s was a very mean fella looked the part .

    Yeah, this may well be my pick as well. He looked great in Hamsho II too...

    I agree with Sibson and possibly Hamsho 1.

    Complete package of accuracy, brilliant jab, combinations, effective movement, heavy hands, defense. He methodically broke them down and turned it up a notch when they got hurt.

    the way Hagler dismantled Sibson, he made it look easy so I was surprised when Hagler said It was a difficult fight
