    Comments Thread For: Prograis Looks To Follow in Hagler's Steps, Win Big One in UK

    Regis Prograis has grandiose plans to mirror in the moves of his hero Marvin Hagler. In 1980, Hagler was on the cusp of star status but without the designation of being a champion. He had fought outside of the United States just once, and Alan Minter stood in his way to solidify his name in the sport. Hagler travelled to Wembley Arena in London and promptly demolished Minter in three rounds to win the WBA, WBC, The Ring and lineal middleweight titles.

          The fact that he's a Hagler fan is the only thing I like about him. Can't say I lime Taylor all that much neither. But I really am looking forward to this fight. I guess a good matchup overseeds how you feel about a fighter personally. Only thing I don't want to see is a comparison between the toughest fighter I ever seen and a dancer who avoids contact at all posible costs. Smart probably, but tough? Not like Hagler tough. Not even close.

            A disgraceful day it twas at Wembley, when our great American middleweight champion was attacked by the sour losers in attendance. One of the worst nights in British boxing.

            Regis Prograis should have extra security, the Irish will be there cheering their man ; it might turn out like one of those Billy Joe Saunder's events when the 'Tarto-Tomato' gets chinned.

            I just hope that the Brits show some class when Regis Prograis hand is raised as the winner.
