    Well you could make an arguement that Marvin Hagler never truly beat a "Great Middleweight" considering Duran, Hearns, were moving up similar to ODLH, Tito. Although Thomas Hearns did do much better at the higher weightclasses, than ODLH, Tito, did.

    Haglers overall record looks far more impressive than Hopkins though.

    Hagler did fight in a better era though. The middleweight division in hopkins era lacked other great fighters that were actual middleweights so he had to go for great but smaller fighters in DLH and Trinidad and he knocked them both out. No one else has done that. When a good fighter came along in Taylor, Hopkins was aged 40.
