    Hopkins would handle Lamotta's assault and then counter punch him and batter him around the ring, swelling him up to win a lopsided UD

    Marvin would rough him up and force him to fight back, Hopkins would get out of his comfort zone and although I think he would go the distance he probably would get a bit beat up along the way losing a Decision

    If Jones' chin couldn't handle Tarver's iffy power IMO a Prime Hagler would wreck him if he caught him

    i was applauding you, until i got to the jones part, i disagree, jones had a good chin, he just got old, there was a moment in the james toney fight where jones got caught with a decent, hard hook and shook it off, ill actually give that fight to jones by ud

    IMO Marvin was a more devastating puncher than Toney (and yes I mean Toney at 160 and 16, plus in his prime he wouldn't let up, I'm not saying that Jones wouldn't be able to go the distance or even win, I just think that Hagler's power mixed with his aggression and relentless will would have eventually caught up to Jones and would have stopped him, but on the same note Jones packed plenty of punch at 160 and his speed was crazy, so what I was getting at is that Hagler would win by TKO and if Jones was to pull out a win it would likely be by decision

    Jake was overrated he had a good chin but not a hard puncher and was lucky to win the title, he would be outboxed by Hagler and Jones.

    Marvin probably would have beaten the green Roy Jones but lost at super middle.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Hagler would beat all of them at Middleweight in his prime he was absolutely awesome.
