Originally posted by Southpaw StingerI 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.
He also went 121-1 over the 1st 11 years of his pro career.Comment

Aww dont say that.Originally posted by Gunstar1You my friend don't know nothing about Hagler.
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.Comment

Originally posted by Gunstar1Actually it was 130+ - 1, this is the reason I rank him all time #1, but his opposition was not as good as 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.Comment

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.Comment
