    Excellent stuff. Please hold strong to your boycott then and don't drag your ailing brain back onto my thread. Considering the thread-subject, would it really have made sense to have an option saying: "Both have the exact same chance because both would definitely 100% win, I can't decide on whose chance is better"?? That would have been stupid. I'm not interested in providing a perfect poll that demonstrates complete impartiality, I wanted a choice so that people were forced to explain their choice, but I included the third option to stop loads of posts by people who uniformly favour the old guys saying "they'd both get whipped" etc. Anyway, enjoy your boycott, you stay strong now :good

    The Hopkins in his later career would win a decision against Hagler imo

    Mayweather-Whitaker is 50/50, either way its a boring fight

    If your definition of 'life and death' is to comfortably outpoint only to be blatantly robbed, then yes, the same one.

    He got beat (in a fight I thought he won) when he was past his best, against one of the GREATEST welters of all time putting in an inspired performance. No shame in doing that. Way more shameful to lose to Jermain Taylor by doing nothing but circling and refusing to throw a punch for six rounds - TWICE.

    LMFAO@Hagler going life and death with Duran and Hearns by the way. Hearns landed one good punch that stunned Hagler, then got brutalised. As for Duran, his own mother didn't have him even after 12 rounds, **** those stupid judges.


    Struggled, but clearly beat him and knocked him out. Wasn't the best Hagler in there either.

    God, do we have to go through the rigmarole of me mentioning Mitchell and Mercado?

    Heck a DLH coming off an ass-basting by Strum was giving Bernard hell for about 8 rounds. I can see a clearly superior fighter in Leonard doing a number on that Hopkins.

    And Mugabi would beat the **** out of Hopkins at 28. Let's stick to primes shall we?

    :rofl

    Frankly, it useless debating with you - as proven in the other thread when you ran away.
    And frankly, threads like these are useless when very few know and have watched fighters mentioned. I can tell that most here have never even taken time to watch Hagler-Sibson fight.

    But your question was really dumb if you've taken time to analyse Hagler's opponents. Go to YT and watch the fights and don't just make judgements because you like Hopkins or you've never heard of Tony Sibson.

    I've stated often that I like Hopkins but it's his idiotic nuthuggers that **** me off.

    As far as any version of Hopkins beating any version of Hagler...forget it.

    Prime Haglar would beat prime Hopkins. Hopkins isn't fast enough, and Haglar is too damn tough

    The biggest Sweet Pea nuthugger on the board calling someone else a nuthugger :rofl.

    I'm sure in your world of Sweet Pea semen gargling, it would be impossible for anyone to beat him. Too bad your crackhead boyfriend would lose to a jackass like FMJ. :good

    I've favored many fighters over Whitaker above 140, but from 140 down, not happening. He was actually that good, unlike Floyd who couldn't even legitimately beat Jose Luis Castillo (you know, the same one who was Chavez's sparring partner, the same Chavez who Pea dominated).

    How about a matchup between Floyd and Hearns?

    Projected response:

    Sorry, but Hearns was just too slow to land cleanly on Floyd, who'd use his superior reach to counter out of the shell defense repeatedly, landing the harder shots and eventually breaking Tommy down with his superior jab and right hand. Tommy just lacked the size and power to damage Floyd, who'd eventually walk him down and land every single shot he threw while avoiding everything in return, much as he has in every other fight he's ever been in. Just watch the replays, Floyd never gets hit clean, he simply shoulder-rolls the punches. He's never legitimately lost a single second of any round. I love Floyd's balls!

    Dumbass post Pea.

    I didn't know Sweet Pea was Chavez or even Jose Luis Castillo. :roll: Since he fights like neither man, your point is worthless.

    But, you have a right to your opinion... regardless of how stupid it is.

    People are so quick to bring up the first PBF-JLC fight the one he was injured going into like it proves something but never bring up the rematch I wonder why?:think

    hagler - hopkins i see as a 50-50 fight, i lean a bit towards hagler.

    pbf's strength is his ability to adjust as the fight goes on. but pea is so unorthodox, i don't see floyd being able to figure him out. pea wins a clear decision.

    :lol:You're the one claiming Floyd would walk Pea down and make him feel his power, when none of the best pressure fighters could do so, and despite the fact that Pea proved himself against that style moreso than any other, especially when it came to hanging on the inside. Conclusion: You're a ****ing dip**** and you have no idea what you're talking about.

    Never said that... that would make you either illiterate or a liar. Pick one.
    Here's a tip... you don't need to be a pressure fighter to walk someone down. Also, most pressure fighters aren't that quick on their feet, FMJ is.
    Again, walking someone down doesn't automatically translate into inside fighting oh drinker of Sweet Pea semen. And if it went to the inside FMJ would still have the upper hand as he's the more accurate puncher and the harder puncher. Obviously all those Sweet Pea cum shakes are rotting your brain.
