Haglar vs Jones at middleweight

If we are talking the Hagler of 1987, against prime 160 Jones? Jones by decision. Prime Hagler v Prime Jones...Hagler is relentless and eventually wears down Jones for a very late TKO Jones would be a tough matchup for Hagler at any point, but some people tend to only remember the brawling Hagler and think that is all he was. At his peak he was a master Boxer as well. Nobody could hurt him, including Jones. Roy would have his moments for sure and it wouldn't be a blow out, but he wouldn't be able to take the pressure of Hagler imo.

early hagler, most likely hagler late hagler, most likely jones

halger bends jones over and fucks him like the bitch that jones is. hagler by TKO.

hagler by ko within 5 rounds the only way roy is winning is on points and hagler aint gonna let that happen roy would probably faint as he met eyes with hagler

Sugar Ray Leonard was a far better boxer skills-wise than Jones, and also had some speed and foot movement, yet I think Hagler would have won their fight if they hadn't made it 12 rounds, instead of 15. Also, Hagler was a very good lefty with great skills, unusually stong at the weight, and much more of a warrior than Jones. I think he would have caught Jones eventually and stopped him given a 15 round fight. Jones depended too much on athletic talent to keep him out of trouble.....

no way. at mw, roy would have embrassed srl and ko'd him easy. roy is three inches taller and has a longer reach on marvin. roys chin is NOT THAT BAD. look at some of roys rights at mw, not a light heavy, and you will see that there is simply no beating him I can understand liking someone, but come on now...

Hagler would've knocked Roid out. Hagler was great at cutting corners, especially against dancers. The Leonard fight, which I think he still won, was Haglers last fight, he was not the same Hagler. Sugar Ray Leonard was better then Roid Jones. Also Leonard's chin was 10 times better then Roids. Hagler by brutal KO. no way. at mw, roy would have embrassed srl and ko'd him easy. roy is three inches taller and has a longer reach on marvin. roys chin is NOT THAT BAD. look at some of roys rights at mw, not a light heavy, and you will see that there is simply no beating him

two of my favorite fighters, but roy was simply too quick and too fast. roy was also extremly powerful at mw, and if hagler wanted to throw, roy could rock him a few times. imo, roy could win a clear cut decision here

I think Jones would win, but I would have loved to see Hagler chasing him around the ring trying to take his head off.

I smile thinking about this one....because I dislike Roid so much. Hagler would have too I believe and would have punished him unmercifully. Hagler look probably take him out very early but I would like to think he would do what Ali to Terrell or whoever it was that insisted on calling him Clay. He kept the punishmant up round after round but wouldn't finish him. "What's my name?!" :D

I think Hagler would have put the necesary pressure on him to do what Tarver did many moons later.Hagler KO not TKO but KO in 6 or less.

A fresh Hagler at his peak would cut the 160 version of Jones down around the 9th or 10th round. The later, tired form of Hagler would be frustrated by Jones' style and would drop a decision.

Good fight. I think Hagler by late KO.

Roy is the best ever...ppl say he fought poor opposition but who was there for him to fight?

leonard in my eyes was faster than jones and had better footwork and a lot of people thought hagler deserved at least a draw in the fight with leonard it would be a close fight i believe hagler would out muscle jones and land in his pursuit of him haha rjj was extremly fast as a mw and had incredible reflexes. roy was also one of the most powerful mw's ever. seriously, they guy was knocking guys out at light heavy, and in 21 fights, he had 19 ko's

i disagree i say hagler stops jones in 8 hagler was relentless he would chase jones all over the ring and i cant imagine hagler not landing one shot i think your underestimating roys chin, reflexes and speed.

he was not able to track down a slowere version of ray leaonard. I don't thinknhe would corner jones. and what is even more believe that jones would have been able to attack him offensively as well.

i agree.. i think jones was just so fast at that time..
