The main factor here is size. Hagler today would probably be a welterweight - Jr. middleweight. And Kelly is a light heavyweight basically, and while Martinez did beat him, speed wasn't Hagler's biggest strength. Kelly grinds him down and TKO's him in 9.
Kelly pavlik is already a proven ATG how can you compare Marvin Hagler to him. Hagler couldn't even beat Sugar Ray Leonard, Kelly stopped Jermain Taylor I repeat he stopped jermain taylor
Ohhh, ok... Pavlik whitewashes the cards on his way to a brutal stoppage in the tenth. Pavlik's right hand, one-two combinations would of wreaked havok on Haglers soutpaw stance and the body shots would've been too much for Marvin's glass body. He would have pissed blood for a month after this one Poor Marvelous:verysad
The only thing worse than someone asking a ridiculous question Is an idiot who answers him!! Neither of you know anything about boxing, please **** off!!
