**** a "call out", who cares besides press conference boxing fans?
Pryor turned down the fight with Leonard, not vice versa.
Mayweather's waiting to see if Pacquiao beats Cotto, obviously a fight with Mosley will have to wait if it will take place.Last edited by Thread Stealer; 11-08-2009, 06:00 AM.

* People forget or dont know Haglar was NORTOROIUS for calling out a smaller man and making them come up to his weightclass to fight him.
Haglar was infamous from calling out welterweights and former lightweights.
(hearns,SRL,Duran) Sounds like a fighter we know today: (Hopkins)
* People forget or dont know that Michael Spinks used to called Haglar out for years but Haglar pretended that Spinks didnt exist. Why didnt Haglar fight Spinks the biggerman instead of always making smaller men moved up and fight him.
Haglar always fought the Smallerman... But is his legacy tarnish?????

Also Hagler at 5ft 91/2, was to small to fight as a lhw

When Hagler realized that he could make 6m, he would of been crazy to turn it down.

Keep it 100%. Spinks the biggerman called out hagler and always the biggerman in his fights refuse to be the smallerman for once out of a few times in his career.
