Marvin Hagler v todays champions?

I'm more directing it at the daft claims that Hagler would simply walk through GGG and Canelo which he wouldn't. Both would be more than a handful for him, my friend.

 

You clearly. What's join date got to do with anything. YDSAB it would be an extremely hard fight for Hagler.

 

Marvin Hagler lost to Bobby Watts and Willie Monroe . Funny how nobody mentions this.

 

Those decisions could have gone either way in fairness to Marvin. Also Marvin worked on a building site right up to the time he became champion. Which makes his career all the more impressive. Lads today don’t do that. They are full time athletes, fresh for training and rested properly etc

 

Two of the guys you mentioned weren't even proper career middleweights, rose tinted glasses I think.

 

I think hagler stops cenelo easy. Ggg would be way more competitive but the fight would end up looking like lomota Robinson ggg falling of in the late rounds ending up getting a life changeing beating

 

Neither was Canelo before he moved up and became top dog. Duran was similar size to Canelo, and Hearns went on to win titles at LHW and beyond. Both just a different class of fighter to any contemporary MW.

 

He’s passionate but even Snr would feel uncomfortable with the praise. It reminds me of when I was a kid or teenager and I’d see a beautiful milf that ticks all the boxes and I’d be day dreaming after that with the odd wank but she would occupy my thoughts for a while after. That’s Bulldog with the fruit loop Snr

 

This a wind up ?

 

Hagler has a very tough night with GGG, Calzaghe, Hopkins, Canelo, Martinez, Froch and Ward from the modern era imo.

 

Like a third of those guys have giving Hagler a 'very tough night' in them...and that's only if they're on rare form on the night.

 

Ggg is NOT bigger than hagler. They’re actually very well matched in size. Both come in about 172.

 

Which ones do and which ones don’t. Not arguing, genuinely interested in debate.

 

Calzaghe and Hopkins are the only candidates on your list IMO. The other five are classy middles and super middles and hold up alright in a lot of historical match-ups... I just think in this one, between conditioning and stylistic disadvantage, they'd all be up against it with MMH.
