The rise of a legend

I know it's not the December 85 issue. only thing mentioned are possible future opponents and breakup with his manager.could be the month before, the one i mentioned but I dont know for sure. I'll probably repurchase it unless someone beats me to it.

The area I think it appeared was towards the last few pages such as Ringside news and views that contains the gossip for the month, sotries bunched together in one section.

 

No it was not Hector himself but the person reporting the events. But I cant remember if the reporter witnessed it himself or is using eyewitness reports.

 

it seems to me that most people here dont know that Hector had a career before 1990 lasting a full ten years without a loss. This would be like someone judging Leonard's entire career off his last two fights.

 

You know it is strange questioning the superiority of one of boxing strongest champions at the time and comparing him to someone out of the amateurs. Even worse is comparing him to someone like Haugen

 

^I'm still waiting to get answers from you that you declined from answering 3 days ago. Go find it then answer me. Truthfully this time.

 

I only know what I read in the article. Perhaps Hector was trying to keep him in line and not to get too fresh with THE world champion. Hard to see anyone with Hector's speed getting schooled especially after what he did to Ramirez.

On the other hand I myself watched Hagler get creamed in sparring sessions by people probably never turned pro. But by then what sort of skill did he have left?

 

And John, this is a work that is an on going process. Very difficult you know.

 

has it been that long? Too bad i dont mind keeping you waiting. You'll just have to keep waiting i guess.
