Originally posted by Dynamite Kid View PostHagler lacked speed imo. Hagler could be outboxed too, he tried to outbox Leonard and lost and he tried to Box Duran and nearly lost.
Even the guy that beat Hagler(Watts) was a Boxer,although i dont think Hagler lost that fight TBH.
He wasn't anywhere near as fast as Leonard, but he wasn't a slow fighter. Most fighters would have look a tad slow against SRL.

Im not sure about that, if Hagler had fought more aggressive he might of found it even harder to cut the ring down on Leonard. Hagler came on, because Leonard started to tire imo.
Im not saying Hagler was slow, but he was never quick.

Sugar Ray Leonard would of been stopped IMO, he didn't have much left at the end where as Marvin Hagler. Looked like he could of fought all night long.

Personally i just dont like the way people try to take away from Ray's victory over Hagler, if its not the amount of rounds boxed its excuses about the decision or Hagler was past his prime etc. Like Leonard wasn't a WW 2 years inactive who was also on the slide.
