    "I gotta tell you", Harold may be taking some of that stuff from the pharmacy he works at.

    Hagler had heavy hands, good punching technique, and stopped some world class fighters in the early and mid rounds.

    Bradley has decent power at best.

    Bradley doesn't even have decent power. He literally only has ONE TKO in the last seven years. He's never KO'd any even remotely decent fighter. That's a fact.

    Lederman lost credibility with me a long time ago.

    those hexes Pac's mother used must be very powerful, affecting Timmy's calves and Lederman's mind in one

    WOW! Did he really say that? I usually respect what he says but I can't respect a comment like that. He has Pernell Whitaker power! Pernell scored 17 KO wins in 46 pro fights. Bradley has 12 KO wins in 33 fights.

    People don't remember that Marvin Hagler wasn't exactly the hardest puncher in the world. He just beat people up and made them crumble.

    I'm not saying Bradley's power is comparable, but it's not that crazy.

    Does Lederman's uncle or father own the network and that's how he got the job?
    He obvously benefits from the usual Ashkenazi free handout program that enlists incompetents in every known field of employment.

    Given that in Hagler's era they used same day weigh-ins, Hagler wasn't much bigger than Bradely. That said Timmy's career has at times been defined from his lack of pop. He did have Provodnikov hurt a few times in their fight, but Ruslan was careless and didn't respect Tim's punches.

    Hagler was no Jackson but he had heavy hands and broke guys down systematically with his jab, combinations. He knocked out some world class guys early too. Hamani, Scypion, Hamsho rematch. They weren't systematic beatings either, he hurt them and stopped them shortly after.

    It's a pretty sizable gap

    :happy
    Let's not forget Duran's shameless ducking of Pryor by offering him even more money than Leonard offered Pryor

    And also, Hagler's raging, pressuring, face-first attack. After all, he fought that way against Hearns. And looked amazing doing that, against Hearns.

    And proved that was his normal fighting style. He fought in that style versus Hearns.
