    80's wins in a clean sweep.

    Some people on here can't even fathom how good the Fab 4 were.

      Duran KO's Pac (at lightweight)
      Leonard TKO's De La Hoya
      Mayweather UD over Hearns (based of size, Floyd too defensive and too quick)
      Draw between Hagler/Hopkins. Both are too good at their skill set, and Hopkins (Trinidad version) would put on a better fight than Leonard!

            What????

            Manny's punches get there so much quicker than Duran's. Go watch the Estaban De Jesus fights and tell me how violent Duran looks when he's getting put on his ass. Manny is kinda a mismatch for him tbh, goes exactly like the Cotto fight except Duran would go down swinging.

            Hagler/B-hop is 60/40 B-Hop in my eyes. Unless by some divine miracle B-Hop's reflexes fail him and Hagler is able to land combos consistently, then B-Hop will outbox him at long range and spoil up close. Hagler KO always an option though Hopkins has a great beard.

            People always say they don't see how Floyd would fight Hearns and I think it's pretty obvious. He would fight incredibly low, drawing Hearns right hand and countering in with Left hooks and overhand rights. Basically I think it plays out kinda Gamboa/Crawford except Floyd is a genius and won't get caught coming in...

            And well, Leonard beat De La Hoya. Think Oscar wins the first 4-5 round with his spear jab and fast feet and Leonard slowly taking over to win a UD. I think this would look like the Leonard/Mayweather fight without the Knockdowns


            That's your opinion. What I do know is that Hopkin's is a hustle fighter at best. He's an A Level fighter but he's no Marvin Hagler. You have no idea what you're talking about, AT ALL. Hagler's up jab is one of the most dangerous and effective punches in history. His jab was like a right hand. He threw it with precision and power. Hopkin's is not on Hagler's level, skill-wise. FACT. And you are giving Oscar too much credit. Nobody on here thinks he would even win three rounds against arguably the greatest fighter in history. SRL would be too fast, too strong, too smart, and too tough for Oscar. Oscar is my boy but I'm not a Fanboy. I am realistic. Hopkin's KO'ed him with a body shot. SRL could KO you to the head or body. That's another FACT. And Manny gets KO'ed. No version of Manny, who is my favorite fighter today, goes 12 rounds with Duran. Floyd would do what to Hearns????????? LoL! You cannot be serious!? Floyd is not as good or as tough as the media or his fans try and make him. This is the same guy who gets hit by fighters with good jabs. Hearns had a GREAT jab. Floyd is hittable by highly skilled fighters. Why do you think he avoids them????? Floyd gets KO'ed. There is nothing he could do to the monster Hearns. He is not an animal. That's what you need to be to beat any of the big four. You shouldn't even try arguing with someone on my level. It's not even fair really. I eat, sleep, and breathe boxing, kid.

              Hopkins > Hagler with size and boxing skills.
              Leonard > Hoya with speed.
              Hearns > Mayweather with length.
              Duran > Pacquiao with stamina edge.

                  I can. =)

                  That said. The only fight of the 4 that I'm relatively certain of is Hearns beating Floyd. I think Hearns kills Money May, but Pretty Boy has a shot albeit a small one.

                  Pac vs Duran is a toss up imo, but I give the edge to Manny. Manny's speed and odd angles would give Duran fits imo. Duran could always clip Manny though and change the course of the fight.

                  SRL & ODLH is a good matchup and I can see Oscar finding a way to win the fight , but in the end SRL was a master at stealing rounds and the guy was a closer. Have to give the nod to SRL.

                  Hopkins vs Hagler, I just don't know. I took Hopkins in the poll just because he is one of my favorite fighters, but the fight could go either way.

                    Hagler decs. Hopkins
                    Leonard decs. Oscar
                    Hearns KO over Mayweather
                    Duran tko over Pacman (135)


                    Other than Oscar the men I picked to loose don't have enough pop to keep their opponents honest. Although Hagler was no one punch KO artist he was an excellant combination puncher with a high work rate.
                    Mayweather and Hopkins defense works against their current opponents against the top quality guys they become runners and loose!

                      Hagler beats Hopkins, I mean Hopkins was a very good middleweight but lets look at the facts here...his biggest win at MW was againts a blown up WW, in Trinidad. Sugar Ray beat DLH, he was just better in every single category + he didnt tire like DLH did. Hearns would be a nightmare for PBF, not even fair to match these two, PBF is just to small Hears would dwarf him, it wont be fair. Duran beats Pac in an all out war..this would be the closest fight out of the 4, but Duran would edge Pac out.
