    Hopkins beats monzon when you really think about it. Hagler would have been a tough one, could go either way, but Hagler being quite a bit shorter might mess things up.

      I'll have to disagree on that one. Hagler would mess him up.

      Him against Monzon is a tough fight to call, though.

          Nah, hagler wasn't would be the slower of the two, and would give up quite a bit in height.

            Don't know, man. Their speed wasn't that different and Hagler had a way of destroying the height advantage. It's all in opinion, though.
