    Hard to split Monzon & Hagler for me.

    Would love to have seen BHOP fight Duran Hagler Hearns Leonard Mugabi etc etc - we would have a much better idea just how could he was (or wasn't)

    B-HOP got a boxing lesson from RJJ when he was in his prime. Monzon didn't defend againt the quality of oppositiion that Hagler did.

    Plus Marvin ran from Spinks and carried on beating the little guys.

    Bernard thrashed Tarver and is debating a fight at heavyweight.....


    Can you really envision Hagler mixing it with the heavies?
