could prime hagler at 160lbs take a straight right from wlad?

[gratz_the_king]

serious question. my friend and I are debating about this. he has one of the greatest if not THE greatest chins of all time but hes severaly undersized. what happens if he gets hit clean?

also what if he gained 70 lbs and was technically a "heavyweight", just not as a fighter. just ballooned up to 230 in between fight camps or something. would the extra weight make his chin better?

[AntonTheMeh]

there are few heavyweights in history if any that could take it why would you expect a middleweight to?

and as far as the extra weight making it better, nope. fat guys take the body shots better though.

[sugarsmosley]

wlad would clinch him before he could fall down

[MBE]

Yes. David haye took at least one and his chin wasn't the most durable.

[SlySlickSmooth]

wlad would clinch him before he could fall down

Yep.....

[gratz_the_king]

i remember ray mercer taking quite a few

[BattleAxePurist]

James Toney went to HW and wasn't the most fit of guys and took Peter's best shots was buzzed a couple times but he's a much different kind of puncher more a clubber.

If Wlad connected cleanly it would be ovah.

Hagler had a great chin but my quess is a perfect right from Wlad would knock him down and no middleweight ever did that to Hagler. Wlad hits much harder than any middleweight and that is one of the reasons we have weight classes. I don't see how being 70 pounds over his fighting weight would make Hagler take a punch any better. Excess blubber does not improve a fighter's ability to take a punch on the jaw to my knowledge.

[SN!PER]

No need for Wlad, just bring in Julian Jackson.
