RIP Marvelous Marvin Hagler

[Spicoli]

This one is actually shocking . Absolute blindside. Fuckin A. God speed legend.

God bless his family.
I remember riding on my friend's motorcycle, with a case of Henry Weinhard beer, to the Los Olivos project to watch him fight Duran.
I remember getting off work at 7 and hauling ass 3 blocks to a friend's house and getting there just in time for the insane start to his fight with Tommy Hearns.
I bought every video out there of his fights and, years after he had lost interest in boxing, Marvin Hagler got my father watching the fights again.
Everyone dies and you are sucker if you don't understand that from the start. If Marvelous Marvin Hagler has decided to leave us, I hope that he exited this world as cleanly as he walked away from boxing.
Personally, I will never forget the first round with Hearns, or the right uppercut he took from Mugabi that only made him mad, or the body shots that discouraged Doug Demmings.

Very sad to hear about this, he really was the "Marvelous" one. A great champion who never balked at any competition.

Fucking hell, what a shock.

As a fighter, he had everything. Granite chin, fitter than everyone and always turned up in shape, great great technical skills, big puncher, demonic willpower. The most complete fighter I ever saw. Beautiful chip on his shoulder spurred him to true greatness.

A true genuine, deserved bona fide legend

This is terrible news, Marvin "Destruct & Destroy" has left us, may he find peace and eternal rest, one of the scariest fighters you can imagine looking across the ring at waiting for the bell for Round 1. Such an athlete in such impeccable shape all his career, to go so young, is shocking.

The first pro fight I ever attended was in 1984 at MSG to see Hagler vs Hamsho 2, who he KO'ed in the 3rd round.

It's ironic we were talking about Hagler last night on zoom Steve what a great fighter he was you myself and Joe.☹️

I really don't remember a more fearsome looking fighter than Marvin.

I echo your sentiments exactly. Totally unexpected. Had no idea he was suffering from health issues. We'll probably learn more in the coming days. A true shock and horribly, horribly sad. In today's world, he wasn't an old man.

Rest in Peace, champ.
