    People forget Hagler was a skilled boxer, and not just a brawler.


    A boxer who fought for 15 rounds.


    And a boxer who was hurt only once, by Thomas Hearns.


    AA would put up a good fight, but I don't see him winning this. In fact, this is one of those fights I bet the mortgage on....

    I think it's a bit to soon to compare Abraham to Hagler. After a few more years then may'be we can compare Abraham to Hagler.

    A post with a little bit of sense, thank you. If Arthur fares well against the harder hitting smweights, then we can talk.

    I doubt, AA was tough enought to fight with broken Jaw. soutpaw boxer puncher plodder vs orthodox puncher with high A guard. Hagler UD nothing more.

    Ya know a tank running over a squirrel can be considered a collision as well. That's kind of what we're talking about here.

    Hagler has the superior...everything except power. Seriously if Abraham does his "cover up then come out fighting" routine against Hagler, he'd be soundly whooped via decision.

    Did you really just use the word "plodder" in describing Marvin Haglar?

    Abraham would have a size advantage, as he's a rather big MW weighing under different rules.

    Hagler would most likely be respectful of this and box and move, like the first half of the Briscoe fight. Pick his spots of when to trade up close and when to box from a distance. Either way it's a really tough night for Abraham.

    Hagler UD or late stoppage.

    Hagler is an ATG, but who the **** are you to call Arthur "queen".. I doubt you would say that to his face. Give the man his props, he's a true champion himself and he proved it whilst going from round 4 to 12 with a broken jaw on both sides.

    Hagler wide UD or late stoppage. Hagler has the advantage in speed, workrate, stamina and boxing ability. AA has the power but haglers whiskers have been tried and found true. AA also has the toughness in him but I can't see him etching out a win against such a great fighter.

    <---- The MARVELOUS ONE all the way to the bank.

    I'm biassed. If u don't like it fuk off.
