30 Years ago today - Hagler-Hearns

[Barcham]

30 years ago today, possibly the best first round action in boxing history. Compare the action in this fight with Saturday night's Lee - Quillin fight and see what a middleweight championship fight should be like. These were two warriors eager to fight, unafraid of anything or anyone. Willing to take punishment to give it in return. Not the two tentative, fearful boxers that were in the ring on Saturday. This is the kind of boxing match I grew up watching - I was 28 when this fight happened. And the amazing thing is that the commentator for this fight was Al Michaels who also did limited work on Saturday's PBC show.

Hagler - Hearns!
