Would Amir Khan have been deluded enough to challenge Hagler in his era at 160?!

    Not necessarily. My granddad sees it as a 50/50 fight; he feels his age and reliance on a walking stick are disadvantageous--so in his mind, it may come down to who lands the big shot first.

    He won't even fight a visibly shot Brook in spite of the fact it would make him some serious dough, therefore the only logical conclusion I can arrive at in my mind is that he would never face a boxer of Hagler's calibre. But then again, this is Amir Khan, arguably one the most deluded boxers in the history of the sport we're discussing here, so attempting to use logic to determine what he would do in various contexts probably isn't going to yield any useful answers.

    Hehe, fair enough, and you sir are a gentleman. EDIT: I was actually a school boy when I was watching the great Marv in his prime beating Caveman Lee, Scypion, Hamsho et al... plus our boys Minter and Sibson...and the legends Duran and Hearns...etc. Hero and legend.
