    I think SRR is overrated.

    He also fought in an era where fighters would fight every two weeks.

          You're insinuating he's over rated because of those losses?

          WOW.

          Go ahead and look at his record and look at how many of those came in the last two years of his career.

          Fighters from the 50's and before typically have more losses because they fought much more often. It's no ones fault, it's a simple statistic.

              He fought an over the hill Duran and lost to a Leonard who came out of retirement and had never fought a middleweight before.

              Well, i believe he Leonard beat him.

                I think over the whole of their career SRR fought more opponents who were better... however... Hagler has several wins over fighters who are all time greats and not just because they fought Hagler.

                  Robinson would've not been as good in the Hagler era, that was the best era in boxing history, where all the greats fought each other.

                    I dont see wat that has to do with my comment about Hagler's biggest opponents being former Welterweights and Lightweights.

                    Robinson fought absolutly everyone, several times. Fought more frequently, plus he himself moved up from welterweight fighting very strong tough middleweights, and still KOing them .

                    Robinson could of beaten everyone Hagler beat IMO.

                      I think he had like a 90 fight unbeaten streak, that is very impressive. He fought like every two weeks and continued to fight until he was 45.
