    Marvin Hagler

    I was watching a Hagler documentary on YouTube last night and someone said he had an insane amount of muscle around his head so it was like he was boxing with headgear on ala Homer Simpson vs Drederick Tatum.

    So my question is, has any other boxer had similar attributes to Hagler that basically meant they couldn't get hurt or KO'd?

    I know people say that Hearns hurt him with that right hand, but after studying the fight, it appears Hagler was stunned rather than hurt.

    Thoughts?

        Would that right hand that Hearns landed KO'd any other fighter?

        I think it would, dude was a beast.

          Dudes with huge heads usually have good chins, like Valuev, Haye said it was like punching an easter island head.

            George Chuvalo. 93 fights and never knocked down. Not once.

            He fought Ali, Patterson, Frazier, Foreman, Cleveland Williams, Qaurry, Bonavena just to name a few. He was pelted in a lot of these and never dropped.
