    How would these Middleweight Champions done as up & coming fighters. Running the "Philly Gauntlet" as Marvin Hagler did. James Toney, Bernard Hopkins, Roy Jones Jr. & Joe Calzaghe.
    Consisting of: "Bad" Bennie Briscoe, Willie Monroe, Eugene Hart, Bobby Watts. Very tough fighters all...

    Philly Gauntlet. Sounds like a novelty special at a corner sandwhich shop.

    Does it come with chips?

    Where there any Chicago Middleweights who would have fared better than Hagler did against these fighters?
