Margarito-Hagler

IMO, both tough stalkers with underrated skills.

Nah disagree Antonio Margarito hasn't really got skills and just keeps coming and takes two to land one..........

Where as Marvin Hagler was a very skilled fighter in his early days he showed good movement solid jab and solid counter abilities he did change his style into more of a stalker later in his career but he was still clever while pursuing especially at changing to right handed.

Come on ICB,To say Margarito is without skills......period......is pretty short sided Imo chief On the same note......he is no Hagler either.

They're really not much alike at all, besides having excellent chins.

Hagler was a terrific boxer puncher, very good technical skills, who could brawl, heavy-handed, solid parrying ability along with head movement, good foot movement.

Margarito is a slow stalker with a ridiculous workrate and ability to take shots, and who can throw from an assortment of angles. Although Steward had a point in saying that Tony's defense is better than often given credit for, that's still not saying much.

I've seen Margarito box at times and use the ring, but I really wasn't all too impressed with it. Hagler outboxed most of his opponents.

I see Hatton being more similar to a poor man's Duran than a poor man's Chavez. Chavez was a more methodical, deliberate and patient stalker. Duran could be that way, but more so in his younger years, came forward at a faster pace, like Hatton does. Hatton and Duran seem more unpredictable in their aggression. And unfortunately, both guys have too much clinching in their fights.

As expected, you see similarities in Floyd Mayweather Jr and Sr, and Roger. And a Mayweather Sr. fighter in Joan Guzman.

It was mentioned on another thread, but similarities exist between Marlon Starling and Joshua Clottey.

I don't really see that much style similarities in Katsidis and Gatti other than being entertaining white fighters who bleed and swell a lot.
