Hagler beats both has a closer fight with GGG remembering Canelo unofficially lost to GGG TWICE and that's with PED assistance. Hard to say if anyone gets stopped as all have proven to have good chins. Hagler just has more ways to win and therefore adjust on the fly without having team of people gameplan everything.
Is there any ACTUAL evidence that those guys put on enough weight to be 170-180 on fight night ? We had conformation of Maidana coming in at 165lb against Mayweather just like Canelo on fight night which is the same size as some middle weights even nowadays with the draining and making weight Spence is a big welter but looks around the same size as De La Hoya, Robinson and Leonard. Not as big as Trinidad. Its water weight and a bit of fat a lot of times these guys put on and weight advantage in that sense is not as good of an advantage as you make it out to be. Spence is skinny and definitely does not look near as thick set as Hagler or anybody else at past middle.
Depends….. if Canelo and his people pick the judges then Canelo would be the harder fight. In a fair one on one fight I’d say prime GGG would pose more problems and be the tougher opponent. GGG beat Canelo he just was the unfortunate recipient of corrupt judges. Stylistically GGG and Hagler would be a great fight, 2 iron chinned iron willed guys going at it… what’s not to love about that one.
He slips a fair bit ... but yes he does rely to much on his solid chin, which for any fighter much less an ageing fighter is not the best idea. Having said that I feel his move from Sanchez has slightly improved the all out face first but obviously at a cost , which is he is not quite as aggressive ie Derychenko...
Crawford as big as Hagler? Lool. I've heard it all. Hagler was 157lbs of pure sinew and muscle. Big neck, Big Fist, sizeable core and of course a 75inch reach and those arms weren't scrawny.
Hagler ain't making 147lbs. 154lbs is possible. But 147 He'd die on the scales. People thinking Lanky wide Frames = weight and size. Hagler was muscle all round, decent sized legs, big neck, big fist, protruding core and stocky. He fought at the perfect weight for him and would beat any mw today, only GGG and canelo would give him a fight but, I'd definitely back hagler.
Hagler didn't beat anyone of Golovkin's or Canelo's level of threat at MW. Hearns was a great boxer but chinny.
GGG blocked most of Canelo's body shots and was hit with less clean shots in the rematch compared to the first fight. GGG has defensive lapses but he is a more than capable defender when he wants to be.
