man that John Mugabi had an iron clad jaw,and balls of steel



ps...so did hagler

[Syntax Error]

I don't know what Hagler had in his chin, it certainly wasn't bone!

He must be a cyborg or something!!!!

Mugabi showed his toughness too, but I do think he benefitted from the fact that Hagler had lost a lot of his speed by '86.

Hagler missed a lot of punches & I believe the Hagler of 1980 would have destroyed Mugabi inside 5 rounds.

thing i dont understand that mugabi looked really tough there but then after didnt he get sparked out in 1st round by terry norris and gerald mc ??

Mugabi could fight, Micky Duff had a big bet on him to beat Hagler, having had Sibson and Finnegan in with him fanceid it big time. The thing was Mugabi wasnt a good trainer according to his trainer George Francis, it makes you wonder what he could have been if he was. That fight made me realise what a great fighter Hagler was.

ICB , by that time he had a STD which was rife, Oh the good life doesnt seem to be the ideal

990-03-31 : Sun Dome, Tampa, FL, USA : Terry Norris beat John Mugabi by KO in round 1 of 12

* WBC Light Middleweight Title
* Referee: Eddie Eckert
* Time: 2:47
* Judges: Ladislao Sanchez, Angel L. Guzman, Alberto Perez

A left hook approximately forty seconds in to the bout staggered Mugabi badly. A quick follow up barrage, finished with a left hook knocked Mugabi down shortly thereafter. Mugabi rose in bad shape, staggering into the referee and pulling his mouthpiece out while the two fighters were seperated. They then battled for another two minutes with Norris unable to finish Mugabi. As the round neared it's end, Norris landed a right hand to Mugabi's jaw which sent him down and out along the ropes.

Hagler Cracked me up in that highlight... I think he landed just as many punches to Mugabi's squash as he did to his head LOL!!

I don't know about way harder, he was a heavier puncher than Hagler, but Hagler was a crisper ,sharper puncher than the G-MAN. Also remember that this was Hagler on the down slide of his career and don't think that Hagler didn't ruin Mugabi in this fight. The Beast was never the same after this fight.
