    Hagler and Jones fight the Murderers Row of black middleweight contenders of the 1940's. How do they fare?

    Maybe win some lose some.

    You've got 16 threads on the front page including 10 in a row. This has got to be some sort of record.

    Attention seeking mate.

    very different. Hagler would merge better with any era because he was tough as they come.. Roy? he was great with speed, but I don't think he was tough. If he could dazzle guys he could do well, but would he dazzle each time out? Something tells me no. Hagler on the other hand would thrive in the top eras. Just a tough technical guy with a great chin. In someways. Toney lost to Jones, but I think he might do better in a tough era than Jones..
