    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.
    You my friend don't know nothing about Hagler.

      He also went 121-1 over the 1st 11 years of his pro career.

        Aww dont say that.

        Or at least explain urself.
        If u cant argue ur point than just dont post anything.

        Its true that wen people say Hagler fought p4p greats, they mean Duran (over the hill lightweight), Hearns (best at welterweight) and Leonard (best at welterweight and "fresh" from retirement).

        I love Hagler, and he fought great opponents, but Robinson IMO beat so many tough opponents that i say SRR fought AND BEAT the better fighters overall.

          Actually it was 130+ - 1, this is the reason I rank him all time #1, but his opposition was not as good as Hagler.

          Also I don't think Robinson would've been Robinson in the era of Hagler.

            Actually, it was 128-1 when he lost his 2nd fight to Turpin.

            And to make a blanket statement that Hagler fought better fighters only proves you don't know very much about names like Henry Armstrong, Kid Gavilan, Carmen Basilio, Jake LaMotta, Rocky Graziano, Gene Fullmer and Fritzie Zivic etc etc.

            Hagler's one of my all time favorites, but he doesn't stack up to Robinson and his opposition.

              Lol I guess you just checked boxrec, I guess I was closer, you said 121.

              I very well know all those fighters, none were as good as Leonard or Duran.

              If Hagler is one of your all time favorites, then name all the good fighters he has beaten, because I know Hagler better then anyone here.

                He didn't beat Leonard.

                And you're trying to tell me Henry Armstrong is no Duran?

                lol, conversation over. Check please.

                  I rank both Leonard and Duran over Armstrong.

                  BTW more people thought Hagler won the Leonard fight.
