I was just watching some old Hagler tapes and thought, damn this guy punches hard and is very active in the ring. And he took some of the Hitmans best punches and didnt even get fazed.
Do you guys think Hagler would have demolished BHOP or the other way around?
I think Hagler is one bad mofo, who in his prime versus a prime bhop could score a KO.
How awesome would that fight be? These guys are monsters.
I don't know who the hell would win, both are all time greats and favorites of mine no matter how you slice it. I know Hagler hit harder than Hopkins, he could punch through a fucking brick wall, the man was a tank. Hopkins defense is better than Hagler's I believe, Hagler is content to get on the inside and just punish you until you drop. Whereas Hopkins likes to beat you defensively.
Both fighters have great chins but Hagler gets the edge there, Hearns broke his hand on Hagler's head and Hagler barely moved, infact he kept beating Hearns to the body as if nothing had happened.
Close fight, I have no idea who'd win but I'd shit a brick to see it, lol.
Yes, this fight is worth enduring the pain of actually shitting a brick just to see it.
yea your right it would be an awsome fight. but the only thing hops wont have time to dance around lol. but it would be an instant classic. god that wont be fight of the year or decade it would be the fight of a lifetime.
Agreed, too bad both fighters came about in different eras. Hagler will always be one of my favorite Middleweights of all time and Hopkins is right up there in the top 3. Hopkins to me, mirrors Hagler in so many ways and it's great he has so much respect for Marvin. So many people tried to discredit Hagler in his career it was pathetic.
Both amazing fighters with great personalities and great careers, guys like this are what boxing is all about.

i think it would be a really good fight. we would have to see the bhop that fought tarver to have a chance with hagler though. your right hagler punched like a f*cking tank. he did take some mean punches too. but i think it would be an awsome fight.
