He should have taken on Michael Spinks. Just to do what those guys did. That is why I think Hearns, Leonard and Duran tested themselves more.
Quite a bit Hagler would have to move up though 2 weight divisions to fight Spinks.
yeah it would have been alot 15 pounds, but Hearns and Leonard moved up 13 to fight Marvin and Duran moved up 25 so I thought Marvin should have done it. Just to test his boxing skills and not his strength. I always thought he talked a little tough with them, and didn't do the same with Spinks. Spinks would have been tough for Marvin to beat. Spinks was 6 21/2 and had the Spinks Jinx.
