Marvin Hagler vs Joe Calzaghe @ 168 ??

Quite simply, No.

 

Average boxers have tagged Joe doing that. 40yr old Jones is shot to **** - he's lost a lot of speed in the process.

 

Calzague easily isn't even fair

 

Calzaghe UD

 

Hagler was effective on the backfoot.

 

The main question is how Hagler deals with the size. Calzaghe would be a light-heavyweight during Hagler's prime, due to different weigh-in rules.

Calzaghe is a very good fighter, but Hagler was superior. Hagler was one of the more versatile and complete fighters you'll ever see. However, he was a middleweight, and not a very big one either. You don't know how a guy will perform after jumping up in weight. And Calzaghe is not some scrub 168/175 fighter.

 

Hagler would walk right through Joe's slaps

 

Hagler destroys Calzaghe.

Is there a Joe C Vs Jesus poll coming where Joe wins that too? :roll:

 

Because of the size difference Hagler could not bully Joe and that was his chance. Joe will win quite easily in his fight. I am a Hagler fan, but this fight is not fair to Hagler as it is such a bad style match-up.

 

Why do you talk like we need to theoreticise (< thats possibly not even a word) this?
Haglers still alive right? and I am sure Joe would get down to 168 for this for his farewell fight in wales in front of 70,000 fans.

He could be the first ring magazine 'fantasy match up SMW champion (while the other guys still alive)'

Hagler has more right than dawson to call him out.

 

I heard this before not sure where?

 

Like Bernard did ?

And Kessler ?

And Lacy?


All bigger stronger men than Marvin ?


How long have you followed the sport, lad ?

 

Hagler by TKO 9 or 10. Marvin is clearly the better fighter great chin and the power to put Joe to Sleep.
