Thanks for the CC's I'm glad some of you appreciate my efforts, can you believe it 61 visits and only 5 posts and 2 of those are mine, but anyway I'm not upset

I think neither the early 80's Leonard or Hearns would have stopped Hagler, I mean they both fought him and I think the outcome's would have been the same. Allthough I'm going to dig out the Hagler v Leonard fight and watch it agian and feature it on my Re-visited section in the future I mean there's still alot of controversy surrounding that fight. I think Roy Jones Jnr is an interesting one becuase he had the skill speed and decent power, but the question is he's never IMO fought anybody near the calibre of Hagler, so would Roy beable to live with "ruff house" tactics? considering that Roy was very good at avoiding shots becuase of his movement and skill, one would think this would go to points but also consider that when Roy's chin has been exposed recently, he’s been knocked out, yes I know age is a factor etc.

But I would say Hagler beats him on points, I think Roy wouldn’t get caught because he would have his movement (one of the reasons Roy has been KO’ed recently is because of his slowing reflexes and movement, his chin was never tested because he wouldn’t allow it to be tested, hence he had the reflexes and movement). I’ll go for Hagler to win a UD over 15 rounds and a close decision over 12 rounds.
