Hagler, Duran, Leonard, Hearns

[The Noose]

Hagler, Duran, Leonard, Hearns.

In fact, i dont quite understand why Hearns is liked by so many. Even at his best he always had an awkwardness about him. Plus i prefer fighters with good defences, i dont think Hearns ever had a good defence.

Head-to-head Duran was the worst, but overall he gets ranked the highest.

All his fights against the other members of the fab 4 came in the 1980s, when he was at least 2 divisions above his best weight. Duran was the best fighter of the 70s along with Monzon.

1. Roberto Duran
2. Sugar Ray Leonard
3. Marvin Hagler
4. Thomas Hearns


Whom I like the best:

1. Roberto Duran/Thomas Hearns
3. Sugar Ray Leonard
4. Marvin Hagler

I actually think he's underrated for his boxing skills and defense. He's the smallest of the 4 fighters, a natural lightweight and yet past his prime went 15 rounds with Hagler and only lost the descision by 1, 2 points. And he was the only one to go the distance with Hagler during his title reign before he lost to Leonard and retired.

AND DURAN WAS THE ONLY MAN TO BEAT LEONARD IN HIS PRIME

at people ranking Duran last on who's best.

Boxing was around before 1980, you know.

The judges were drunk that night.

Hagler should have been ahead of Duran comfortably on the cards. Duran held his own by the fight really wasn't all that close.
