owen O'Neill Ali could also withstand big punchers better than any fighter I've ever seen. He dealt with murderous punchers like Frazier, Cleveland Williams, Shavers, and Foreman. Remember, he didn't run in the least vs. George. In fact, was flatfooted against the ropes and covering up. There isn't another fighter in boxing history who could have pulled that off against George other than Ali. The man could absorb devestating punches in an unbelievable fashion.

@eugenemcgirt2357

6 жыл бұрын

Beware Of The Austro Kraut If you believe Ali beat George because of loose ropes, that is a very interesting perspective. Muhammad had always used the ropes as his tactic, even during the first bout with Frazier. That was a resting tool for him and he was able to cover and withstand big punches. Even if the ropes were tightened Foreman wasn't going to beat Ali. Muhammad was a much better fighter than George and the power shots from George weren't going to devastate him. Power was never enough to defeat Ali.

He won that fight with Leonard. I said it then, I say it now, and I'll keep saying it. Marvelous Marvin Hagler won the fight with Sugar Ray Leonard.

I met him when I driving for Strawberries record stores. I was at the Brockton store. There was a" Closed for 20 minutes" sign on the door. I knocked and got the managers attention. I brought in my first load. I asked why he was closed. He pointed to a man and his kids towards the middle of the store. "I give Marvin and his kids some quiet time when he comes in. He's got special order pieces in today's delivery". He was just being a Dad out with his kids. I hurried to get everything in. No boxes are marked as special so his order could be in any box. Finished up and hung out. The other people in the store also respected Mr. Hagler and his kids. The manager walked over to Mr. Hagler and asked if they were ready. He mentioned his order was at the register. Signed autograph for a couple of kids before he left. The manager said "Marvin, My driver's a big fan also". He had his hands full but gave me a genuine "Thanks" as he and the kids left. A Dad spending time with his kids.

It's a nice thing to see this warrior today at peace and content. I am a big fan and I'm glad he's doing well.

Mr Hagler in my opinion (not that it counts for much) is the best middleweight fighter I have ever seen. I would put him up against any middleweight/super middleweight fighter in the past 30 years and my money would be on Hagler. I look back to the era when Hagler boxed and the boxers who fought at that time. They would have fought anyone to PROVE they where the best. Not like today, money talks and avoiding a challenge is in there best interest. Thank you Mr Hagler for the fantastic memories and I take great pleasure in watching your fights regularly on you tube.

Grew up in Boston listening to the Sunday night "Sports Huddle" with Eddie, Mark, and Jim. They would often have Marvin on as a guest - and he would stay on for several hours, chatting and taking calls. Marvin must have been about 24 at the time...from across town in Brockton, Mass. Always ALWAYS came off as a stand-up, polite, decent man. We all loved being witness to his rise to fame and fortune. If anyone deserved it, it was Marvin. Stunned and saddened that he passed so young. But he will live on in my memory vividly, as long as I breathe...RIP, Champ.

Then how did he compete in boxing if he wasn't a boxer?

Marvin Hagler avenged all his draws,and losses with the exception when he was robbed from Milk & Cookies Flashy Show Boater SRL. Hagler never knocked down in his career. Even when he fought Juan Roldan, that was a complete slip,and light knudge on the behalf of Roldan. Hagler was a complete hardcore fighter. Great chin,and punching power for a Middleweight. Amberdexterious favoring the Sothpa stance of course. Marvin was able to adapt to any style in which this gave him the upper advantage against punchers, boxers, and speed demons. Hagler dictated the pace of every fight,and he had great ring general ship second to none. I remember seeing him in an interview before he fought Hearns. Hagler said if he gets through Tommy's best punch, he then knew he would have Hearns licked. In which he did. Hearns delivered that wicked right cross that would flatten 9 out of every 10 opponents. Hearns wobbled Hagler,and managed to give Marvin a nasty gash that would make others quit on their stool, but The Marvelous One as usual was able to overcome the Hitmans punching power,and comeback to conquer Hearns. And when Marvin battled The Hands Of Stone. They fought a full 15 Rounds. In this fight The Marvelous One used his wits,and outclassed Duran to retain the Middleweight championship. And a great performance from Duran too. And also a great performance on the behalf of Hearns for giving us boxing fans the best 8 1/2 grueling minutes in 1985,and perhaps the best exciting fight in the decade of the 1980s! Indeed I tip my hat to The Man, The Myth, The Marvelous One!

R.I.P. Marvelous Marvin Hagler 🙏👑❤

Great champion, no regrets and nothing to regret either. He was never loved in his career, maybe he was too much of a fighter and not enough of an entertainer. Even to this day the public can forget the last fight or two of every champion except him. But he made his money, he beat everyone that wanted to fight him and now he still has his health and his loyal fans and the future to look forward to. Godspeed Marvin, there is no middleweight who could have ever gotten past you at your best

My favorite all time fighter. A man of fierce pride, indomitable will, and always underrated skill. Whose the last great fighter you've seen adept at fighting orthodox or southpaw? Hagler. Whose the last great fighter who could say they beat arguably three of the 10 best fighters of their generation (yeah, I think he beat Leonard)? Hagler. The man remains CRIMINALLY underrated. The single best 'lunch pail' fighter of my lifetime.

Hagler retired after the decision, he didn’t stick around long enough for one(not that Ray would have gave him one anyway).

When he was in his prime he was the real baddest man on the planet.

One of the best middleweights in history, a true legend!

When I was a kid in the 70's I used to watch Sugar Ray's Golden Gloves show on Saturday Mornings ... those were the days of great Boxing.

Marvelous Marvin was great. Seems to me he was like a wrestler, though: never broke character. I can't remember seeing him smile while he was an active fighter but, now he's retired, he does nothing but smile! Great to see him happy and healthy. What a warrior!

These are great fights that we all will never see in the remaining of our lives again. This is when boxing was a sport. Now it's just a business. So sad , and I miss the sport of boxing, and thanks you tube for helping us all relive those exciting glory days again. 👍

I loved watching Marvin fight.....what a tactician.....he would work other fighter and just 'break them down" by the 5th-6th round you could tell the end was near. One thing about almost all of Haglers opponents was this: Almost everyone he fought was never the same afterwards fighting-wise.....Their careers just went south after Hagler...virtually every single one he fought after that first Antofermo fight....

Leonard took on Hagler, and was the better boxer. Leonard was the best welterweight to ever step into a boxing ring. He also could fight middleweight, as he did against Hagler, and beat him. If there would have been a rematch, the result would have been the same.

Hero and inspiration to countless people. True boxing fans loved you mate and the entertainment you provided. RIP gone far too soon.

First time I saw him was against Alan Minter who was no mug, and his class just shone through. We never saw him again in England because of the disgusting behavior of the London crowd. RIP to a champion and Gentleman

Hagler came up the hard way. He didn't have the push of an olympic medal behind him like Leonard did (no disrespect to Leonard) so he had to battle his way through the trenches and take on tough, dangerous fights early in his career to build a name for himself.He and Leonard fought for their first world titles on the same day, and he got robbed blind against Antifourmo ( sorry I know I spelled that wrong). He was considered the uncrowned middleweight champ for while before he confirmed it with his destruction of Alan Mintor. Hagler is a living legend.

I love this man, i was in awe of him when i was young, i followed his career before the internet era by waiting at the newsagent for RIng and KO magazines, i read them cover to cover so many times, it is a great memory of mine and i cherish it, looking at this great man today he looks fit and strong, he makes so much sense in what he says about his beloved sport, magic days indeed.

You were the best middle weight in history and a Class Act thanks for the memories Champ

Hey Marvin, Your greatest middle weight to ever box. Lenard didn't beat you and you had the class to let boxing go after that fight and not get in to the gutter of the boxing world. I think the UFC has over taken the boxing world today. I was one of your fans when you were Starven Marvin Hagler.and will always consider you the greatest middle weight ever. God bless

Depends on if you're voting with your heart or your head. Hagler let himself down, he did the same in his first title fight and again to Duran, not by losing but by failing to rise.

A legend and was a joy to watch. One of my favorites. I was on line to receive the Covid vaccination when I looked at my phone and saw the news of his passing. He appeared fit and healthy from the recent photos I had seen. Sad and shocking news. RIP. You will be long remembered by us fans.

One of my favourite boxers ever, part of the real 4 king,s era, never been a welterweight to middleweight era like that since these guy,s stopped entertaining us, can only hope the era we have now is going to get better.

Greatest middleweight of all time, a true warrior, in every sense of the word. No other fighter could have survived the onslaught that Tommy Hearns threw at him, a lesser man would have been kayoed. Truly robbed against Sugar Ray Leonard. What a match up Hagler v Monzon would have been.

Outlanded by 2-1 Medez Jorge??? Um no Sugar out landed him by 15 and Hagler out punched him by almost 200. You're supposed to win the title from the champ he didn't, it was a draw at best. Not one punch hurt Marvin, Leonard fought like a sissy IMO. He edged the 1st and last 10 seconds of the round then ran for the rest, Golden Boy gets victory like his tainted one against Hearns. They all ducked 'the body snatcher' though so although i'm a big Marvelous fan there's always that doubt...

What a GREAT, HUMBLE, CLASSY MAN!! "MARVELOUS MARVIN HAGLER" was marvelous in so many different ways. I viewed many of his fights and always RESPECTED him for his talents, sportsmanship, and professional manner, in and out of the ring!! He's still in GREAT SHAPE and still as HUMBLE and POSITIVE as ever!! As far as I'm concerned, he beat Leonard that day!! Those were the GOLDEN days of boxing!! I wish you GREAT HEALTH AND HAPPINESS, MR. HAGLER!! YOU'RE A CHAMPION BOTH IN AND OUT OF THE RING!!!

So happy to see and hear from this man and know he's doing well and living the good life. We love you Marvelous!!!
