    That was within his first 7 bouts. He went an additional 292 without getting stopped. Not nuthugging. Fact.

    I don't think it was possible to intimidate Hagler.

    I can't believe someone was bringing up the Chip KO.

    How many times would Monzon or Hagler been beaten if they had fought on Greb's schedule?

    Might as well turn this into a Harry Greb thread, as the Hagler-Monzon matchup is almost impossible to handicap. Hard to see either losing IMO or clearly winning either.

    Monzon had that great jab and powerful right. I envision Monzon keeping Hagler at bey with that jab and throwing that right down the pipe. In a 15 round fight Monzon wins 9-6 in rounds.

    Anyone who tries to pick holes through Grebs record has issues. His record is one of the most astonishing in boxing history. Ducked no one and nearly every year is a who's who of all time greats.

    Monzon was the superior ring general vs Hagler. It would go 15 with Monzon winning a chess match.
