What's undeniable is that Jones would not be able to hurt him, and would probably have been seriously worried about Marvin's firepower.

To me, Hagler was the better fighter.













Totally agree with X.....Jones would have become worried when Hagler had no respect for Jones power. john Mugabi hit harder than Jones hands down. Hagler took the best Mugabi had to offer. Not that Mugabi was anywhere on the skill level of jones but power wise he was far superior. I also do not believe Jones was a better boxer then Leonard so if Hagler was able to deal with the ring craft of Ray Roy would not be able to overly outbox him...IMO Marvin by TKO late in the fight. Jones becomes dejected and Marvin catches him about 10 or 11
are you on drugs? How can you say that Mugabi hits harder than RJJ? Thats bullshit. Its just as stupid as saying Hagler is a better boxer than him... Hagler didn't outbox Leonard, He sure as hell didn't outbox Hearns... The only person he had a close boxing match with was Duran, and Duran was 25 pounds above his original weight, and wasn't nearly the power puncher he was in comparison to his earlier days. Hagler was a good boxer, but he was more of a pressure puncher who could take punches, and I am not debating whether or not RJJ can KO him which I think he could, but that RJJ could keep Hagler away with his power, and that his footwork, angles, skill overwhelms Hagler worse than it did Toney who was a much better defensive fighter than Hagler, and a faster fighter than Hagler with a heavyweight chin, more skill than Hagler. If RJJ could hit Toney that often then he would be able to hit Hagler with his eyes close.
