    disagree. marvelous was far superior. he could box, he could come forward, work on the inside, work the body, fight southpaw and orthodox and has a better right jab of the two.

      SMH some of these people don't even know who hagler is, they think because they saw him against Hearns or Leonard that they know a lot about him. You better study up on your boxing before coming out with stuffs "Pac has more skills than him"

        Yall keep talking about these 8 weight class titles, but the same pac fans will say about anyone else winning belts doesn't matter because there are so many


        Which one is it? do they matter or not

        Look at who and how he beat them for the belts......He is a 4 weight lineal champion....I don't read much into the trinkets because look at who he beat for the belts.....David Diaz at 135 when the weight had 5 more viable opponents.....Margarito at a catchweight at 150 for a title at 154, neither guy were ranked.....Cotto another catchweight after barely getting by Clottey and getting his but whooped by Margo



        Hagler was more dominant than Pacquaio...Hagler was the complete package in his prime...all everyone remember is the Mugabi, SRL, and Hearns fights...he was past it by then...in 1978-1982 he was possibly the best p4p in th world and Leonard or no one else was chasing him either..actually defended the titles he won, and didn't fight for vacant belts....sure he beat guys moving up but what champ hasnt

          Wrong! I rate a lot of them pretty high that have actually done something. Look at Henry Armstrong for example, I sometimes think he was the best ever, even better than Robinson(yes I'm aware they fought). I'm pretty fair to be honest when it comes to rating boxers.

          You go to Mexico, ask who's the best ever, most likely you would get Chavez Sr. as an answer right?

          You go to the Philippines, ask the same question, you would get Pacquiao as an answer. I think it's kinda similar here in the states with Americans and black boxers.

          It's not ****** at all to compare Hagler to Golovkin, they're both middleweights. What is one of Hagler's top accomplishments as a fighter? He ruled the MW division for several years correct? Even Hagler supporters want Golovkin to move up and yet praise Hagler for his accomplishments.

          I see what you're trying to do, won't work on me.

            It's simple. He showed up to a few major bouts when he was young and boxing still mattered, so he thinks he knows boxing. Same way my mom had a friend who argued with me about boxing because she was at the Garden to see Frazier/Ali 1. Show up to a couple big fights and you're an expert, apparently.
            Thats even worse, the guy is a joke.

                  Marvin Hagler never got knocked out in his career -- let alone three one-punch knockouts. There is no comparison.

                    you don't even believe that your self....you hope Manny wins



                    Mayweather is just the better fighter and will UD or stop Manny late.


                    Manny is great but his recklessness, inability to cut off the ring will play into Mayweathers hands.


                    May the best Man win

                      That's a ridiculous measuring stick. By that logic, Mayweather>Ali since Ali has suffered a Knockout.
