Comments Thread For: Hagler Doesn't Support Mayweather's Stance on Pacquiao

[LeadUppercut]

Anyone who argues against drug testing is a moron. How would someone look telling a job employer, "nah, I don't want to take a random drug test, I'm good." The drug testing is not an unreasonable request.

Agreed, although I struggle to look at Hagler in that light.

Dude was the beast from 20,000 fathoms.

He needs to smarten up and think about some of the comments he makes.

RBT is only a ploy by Mayweather it's an excuse to avoid Pacquiao. Hagler is a very respected fighter. Only the commission has the right to impose what type of testing all boxers should take. If Pac agreed to the test which he did already it lost the credibility and respect to the commission. Floyd is just scared.

It is unreasonable unless required by the commission, do you get the point idiot.

hagler makes perfect sense... back in those days, they brutalized each other. they settled it in the ring. pryor had the black bottle ;P whats the big deal??? LOL

but seriously, its all one big cluster****... USADA testing is $6,000-12,000 (for multiple tests)... so BOTH fighters can EASILY pay for it.... but pac ended up looking like the fool for refusing so bad.

So they are calling Pac a coward on ESPN? Oh thats right it was Floyd being called the coward LOL!

hagler fought against the odd's he was always considered "too Black" to be considered a great fighter compared to Leonard who was the white man's champion. I do believe the fight was for Leonard but Hagler all through his career fought through this problem getting the big fights even though he was the best. He had to win and win big to be taken serious in his career and even then he for the most part wasnt until after he retired and shut the critics up with the Hearns fight. Mayweather never had to fight through adversity unless it was in the court room.

Yes a modern day Warrior should support fighters making excuses. Yup that makes sense.

Don't talk nonsense for heavens sake, you weren't there and know nothing about Hagler. I was and DO know. Hagler was the uncrowned Middleweight king for years before he got a title bout. He must have had at least 50 fights before he could get the champ to face him. Then he was done out of an easy win by only being given a draw.

There's nothing he doesn't know about boxing and all it's ramifications.

I never once disputed Hagler being a great middlweight. I simply stated thta he never tested himself against bigger guys. Instead, he opted to let the multiple welterweight stars of his era come to him. I don't see how that can be disputed.

Move up and challange bigger guys? You do realize that Hearns and Leonard fought as High as light heavyweight and super middleweight in their careers right? Hagler out of the 3 fighters was actually the smallest.

Just like he did to Leonard, Hagler is calling Floyd Mayweather a little B*tch....any Mayweathers would piss in their pants if they had Hagler in front of them...

.....Hagler is a legend, never ducked anyone, A TRUE WARRIOR in the ring, something Mayweather will never be....three words : Hagler versus Hearns!
