Hagler vs RJJ

[scoopy]

Hagler couldn't handle Roy's speed and size. Yes Roy is much faster and much bigger than Hearns

Roy would struggle with Hearns let alone Hagler!

Hearns at 6'1 / Roy 5'11?
Hearns reach 78'/ Roy's reach 74'

Ain't nothing in it weight wise either. You want to discuss quality of opponents too?!

C'mon man take the RJJ blinkers off!

Hearns: 6'1", 78" reach

Jones: 5'11", 74" reach



Exactly what about Jones is bigger than Hearns? His penor?

longer =/= bigger. Roy was clearly a bigger middleweight than Roy I don't even think it's is debatable.

Also Boxrec #s are way off as usual Tommy Hearns is taller than 6'1

LOL. Roy was a bigger middleweight than Hearns? They both weigh 160 at MW, Hearns is taller, Hearns has a longer reach. So again, what part of Jones, besides his ego, was bigger than Hearns at MW?

As I said longer =/= bigger how many post do you have? You should know this.

What in the blue blazes else does longer mean? Smaller???

Height, weight, and reach is what constitutes size. Hearns was bigger than Jones.

It is a question of size of frame. Height, weight and length of arms are not actually relevant. Circumference of wrist or ankle is what is relevant as that gives an indication of the size of a person's frame. Assuming the information I found is correct then Hearns' wrist is 8 inches and Jones 7 inches. This suggests that Hearns is the bigger man. However the information I have on Hearns comes from his fight with Barkley, Hearns' had larger wrists than Barkley but smaller ankles. I don't have information on Jones' ankle size.

Hagler Jones would have been an interesting fight, I'd give Jones the edge if it went the distance but Hagler of the early 80s might have been able to catch and stop Jones. However I think Jones might just have too much athleticism for Hagler. I slightly favour Jones jr. .55 probability on Jones jr victory.

And there you have it, folks. Height, weight, and reach don't mean anything in boxing. It's all about having big wrists and big ankles.

The next time my trainer yells at me to use my reach advantage, I'll tell him that reach doesn't matter, and that I need to go home and jerk off so I can get some big wrists!

Jesus try and learn to read properly, that is absolutely not what I said!

Size is about frame size, the size of your skeleton! The wrist and ankle measurements are a way to determine this as there isn't the muscle and fat around it like other parts of the body. It is truly amazing that you don't already know that.
