Hagler was busy losing to a welter weight at 32 lmfao then retired immediately after he got beat

Wasn't like he was a used up 36. His biggest actual win and fight was against a welterweight until Canelo. Hagler lost a close fight to one of the most gifted fighters of all time. No one made Hagler tuck his nuts and turn into an amateur touch boxer deep into his pro career.
LMFAO
Hagler's biggest fights are against welters. Duran. Hearns and Leonard. He lost to the last one at 32.
this is on top of the fact Hagler lost to absolute bums in his prime. GGG by KO

It would be a great fight. Hagler is bit gun shy and did not like it to the body. Mentally I give GGG the edge. And this is important. Hagler fought too conservative with a much smaller Duran, allowed Sugar Ray to outsmart him and failed to get busy early in the fight, and fought Vito Antuofermo to a draw. All of these matches happed in Hagler's prime at age 32 or under.
Power wise I would also give GGG the edge. Speed and reach wise, I would give Hagler the sight edge. Height and weight wise, I'd give GGG the slight edge.
How has the style advantage? GGG ate up former weight fighters in his prime. Hagler didn't always do this. I see a pattern of Hagler struggling with short, lower weight fighters. Check for yourself, it's there.
So who wins? I would predict GGG via spilt decision. The above reasons illustrate why.
It is a great fantasy fight.

golovkin lost to canelo. He never beat him. Jacobs was nearly as old as golovkin and golovkin barely beat him. So age was not a factor. Nice try but you can't rewrite history.
Name one fighter going to the hall of fame that golovkin has beaten. I'll wait.
