    :good

    boring fighter to watch bar maurice hope :fire

    hagler was 87 v leanord
    85 v hearns

    not sure when hagler fought duran 83 i would guess which is 4 year apart which is why i was wrong.

    i thought about benitez but did not remember the duran v benitez fight so i went with hagler.

    made no sense, vito was an average fighter no real skill , just strong and high workrate, but hagler boxed within himself instead of fighting fire with fire and tired a bit down the stretch, yet watch hagler v munroe and briscoe 2 better fighters than vito a few year before there 79 fight and you see hagler box there heads off.

    think i have it

    henry maske then came back last year and beat hill i remember them saying in commetry on my rnd by rnd it was 10 years since maske last fight.

    i watched all maske defenses so should have picked up on it but the timeline of 97 threw me off.

    that surprises me.

    i can remember eubank for 1
    benn for 3
    a frenchman sellier i think his name was for 4.
    a american who collins got decked in , in his last fight for 5.

    thats it of the top of my head.

    heavyweight would be savon.

    cannot remember if the called it heavyweight or super heavyweight in tefelio stevensons era.

    not that it was hard for tefilio.

    most of his opponents pulled out when they found they werre up against him.

    only ever watched him in the moscow olympics of 1980 though.
