Hagler was my favorite boxer of all time. He was always in peak condition, and his combination of stamina, skill, and power is unmatched. He was a southpaw who could switch to conventional right hand and fight just as effective, and could box or slug, whatever it took. Take the gloves off, unwrap your hands, and take a hot shower. Your fight is over, you are the undisputed champion. Rest in peace Marvelous......

Mugabe’s manager was a fool. Mugabes manager should have given Mugabe a year longer before facing hagler. And something else. Johns crazy violent immature attitude towards hagler before and during the fight too. That too was idiotic on the part of mugabes camp and boxing team. You act that way towards hagler before and during a fight? Your done. Unless your name is sugar. And when I say sugar ? I mean sugar ray robinson. Not seales or Leonard. Among middle weight boxings professional champions? Only Robinson could take an attitude like that with hagler and back it up. Pure and simple.

What really set Marvin Hagler apart from almost everyone was his sheer DETERMINATION. HE JUST REFUSED TO BE BEAT. RIP CHAMP

I was there live at Caesars Palace in March of 1986 for the Marvelous Marvin Hagler vs John The Beast Mugabi fight. The tickets started at $50.00 on up, and there wasn't a bad seat in the outdoor Arena. It was very cold and raining and we covered ourselves with 55 gallon plastic garbage bags to help with the rain. Me and Freddie Encinas and another coworker from Hughes Aircraft Company in Tucson drove from Tucson and stayed at a place that I owned in Kingman, Arizona. The next day we drove to Las Vegas which is a 2 hour drive from Kingman. The entire fight card was sensational as well as the main event of Hagler vs Mugabi. We had a grand and lovely time and was the best live Boxing event I've ever attended.

What a FIGHT. My new favorite MW fight. I'll tell you this; Without Hagler, Mugabi woulda been Champion for years. Kudos to both!!!

Mugabi was a great fighter, Marvin was the greatest.

I read an interview somewhere that Hagler was asked in what fight did he feel hurt the most. Hagler replied 'I never feel hurt in fights.' Real beast.

Been a hagler fan for many years and have watched this fight god knows how many times, this fight took a lot out of both fighters but I think it destroyed magabi, soul destroying to see hagler still standing in front and coming forward after hitting him with everything you have, magabi was never the same after this fight...Hagler was just a wrecking ball to an opponent's soul, a true warrior that's name will always be talked about for yrs to come...RIP Marvelous

I love how the announcer exclaims that it's a "test of wills" right as Hagler staggers Mugabe back to the ropes. Engaging in a test of will with Marvelous Marvin Hagler has to be one of the most daunting challenges in boxing history.

One of the greatest middleweight fights ever, that I think some fans forget about when they talk of the great bouts. Marvin Hagler is easily on the top three middleweights ever, and John Mugabe was probably the only man to truly back him up and make him feel under physical pressure. Two absolute warriors at the peak of middleweight boxing history.

This is Box History , RIP Marvelous Marvin Hagler , One of a Kind .

This was the only time I saw Marvin Hagler being really hit seriously by an opponent, but at the end he did find the way to grind a KO !!! This fight sold me for good that Hagler was a true Champion...

That’s was an absolutely incredible fight... and that’s just watching the highlights!! I knew ‘The Beast’ Mugabi was a hard, tough and excellent boxer during his time, but I didn’t realise he was that good!! However Marvin Hagler was outstanding as always: talent, skill, strength, willpower, courage and determination. Marvellous Marvin was the greatest Middleweight of his generation. Probably of all time. RIP Marvin. 😢🙏🏾💐

Watching THE MARVELOUS ONE box was like POETRY IN MOTION.R.I.P CHAMP. God bless you and your family 🥊

John Mugabi had skill, power, heart and tenacity to be a great champion. Unfortunately he came along in the time of the great Marvelous Marvin Hagler. I love the scene after Hagler knocks Mugabi down, the ref is issuing the count, Mugabi looks over at Hagler in the neutral corner, and Hagler signals him to “c’mon” with his fist.

Mugabe was no1 challenger and a devastating puncher. Hagler was a consumate pro and probably the fittest and smartest MW of all time. Granite chin and ground his opponents into the dust.

Always fighting going forward. What a legend RIP

Man, what a war between two courageous tough guys ! I remember watching it live at my buddy's house. Both Mugabi and Hearns hit Marvin with shots that would have put away anyone. Marvin's chin was ridiculous, but so was his talent and toughness. RIP, Champ.

Hagler was a very clever fighter as well as brutal! The way he switched from southpaw to orthodox but that"gazelle right jab" does most of the damage I've said it before he was the "greatest middleweight" I've ever seen and there will never be another without doubt!! RIP marvellous Marvin

I'm surprised that this video has gotten like 8k views in the last 3 days but I'm glad that it might show new boxing fans what a legendary champion Hagler was. He is arguably the greatest man to ever grace 160 pounds. Rest In Peace to Marvelous. 🕊

Truly MARVELOUS!!! Enough said!!

Wow , what a fight, and great highlights. Mugabi really brought punishment to Hagler, but Hagler used Mugabi's head like it was a heavy bag that just wouldn't go down. Incredible fighters.

I may have to rank this as my favorite Hagler fight of all. Hagler-Hearns was legendary, in all its action packed splendor. However, I tend to view that as Hagler going to "WAR" with only one survivor, whereas Hagler-Mugabi is overpouring with drama. After. his victorious showdown with Hearns, Hagler was contemplating retirement, and did not fight for a year. The dramatic stage was set, when an aging Hagler had to be persuaded to come back from a long hiatus to face John Mugabi, a young, undefeated lion with a perfect knockout record of 26-0. Hagler endured brutal physical punishment, at the hands of the very strong, powerpuncher, Mugabi. When the smoke had cleared, the only man standing was Marvelous Marvin Hagler, who had broken, dismantled, and crushed the will of a thoroughly defeated John "The Beast" Mugabi. Check it Out! Ciao!!!

Man these two went AT IT. Great fight

Boxing today is mere shadow of its glory days. Mayweather stood no chance against these fighters. Rip tha Marvellous one

What a chin on Marvelous Marvin. I'm sure Mugabi got frustrated landing so many hard shots, shots that had KOed everyone he fought up to that point, and Marvin just kept coming. A lot has been said about this fight over the years...that Leonard, who attended the fight, saw that Hagler had lost a step and agreed to fight him, that Marvin had had enough of the roadwork and punishing his body to get ready for fights etc. I think Marvin showed more in this fight than he did against his toughest opponents. He literally out-toughed Mugabi...walked him down and knocked him out. Mugabi looked like a middleweight Sonny Liston, just so broad across the back and slabbed with muscle but Marvin just refused to be beaten. Great action fight.

Hands down one of the greatest fights I have ever seen. Hagler was my man

Another American Hero left Us.

This is one of those fights where the whole fight is the highlights.

This fight was on CBS over the air free television.

What a fight! Even a great champion like Hagler has a finite number of rounds like this in him. What Hagler took out of himself here must have contributed in part to the scandal of the match against Leonard.

I think Hagler had to be the smartest and toughest brawler ever. His meticulous and methodical takedown of "The Beast" IMHO is the best ever. Great defense as he was able to spin out of a corner and go back on the offensive.

Nobody here may agree with this assessment, but Marvin Hagler must be considered as one of the top five boxers in the sport's history. This man could throw power-shots from all angles, while taking punishment, and still wear his opponent down with his relentless pursuit. Hagler was a magnificent fighter.

Especially considering this was outside and how cold it was. This is amazing
