No fight I've ever seen matches Hagler Hearns for the raw intensity and action it brought. You can see in both mens eyes before the fight neither was going to be denied and if allowed to they both would have probably died in that ring that night.

When I/think of Great matches, I think of clashes like Zale vs Graziano, Hagler vs Hearns, Moore vs Johnson, Pepp vs Saddler, Ali vs Frazier, Corrals vs Castillo, Dempsey vs Firpo, Leonard vs Hearns, Duran vs De Jesus, Sanchez vs Gomez, Chavez vs Taylor, Pryor vs Arguello, Carbajal vs Gonzalez, Gans vs Nelson, Villa vs Wolgast, Trinidad vs Vargas, Holmes vs Norton, Benn vs McClellan, Robinson vs Basillio, Eubank vs Watson,...the list goes on and on.
Greatest boxing match of all time.....skill vs skill....I think of Whittaker vs McGirt, Toney vs McCallum, Hagler vs Duran, Hearns vs Benitez, Charles vs Walcott, and so forth and so on. There are too many beyond my knowledge and appreciation to know which one was The Greatest match ever; but in my lifetime, I have seen very few matches which approached the drama of the third Ali-Frazier fight, with the possible exception of the firs Leonard-Hearns showdown. Hagler vs Hearns is in a class all its own. The only reason its not at the top of the list is probably due to how long it lasted; but oh,what an eight minutes. |
