    From 1 to 10. How hard did they hit (B-Hop at MW only)?

    Hagler 7.5-8/10
    Hopkins 6-6.5/10(when he was more defensive and cautious 2000-2005)
    7-7.5/10 (when he was fighting with an agressive style and knocking guys out in the mid 90s)

    More or less what I think as well. These guys were great because of their skills, not their brute force.
