Calzaghe-Hagler?

[Trainer Monkey]

Thats right, Hagler never moved up and never wanted to, he was quite content to fight others who had the balls to move up and as much of a hard fight that Hagler had with Mugabi im sure Joe wouldnt have struggled.

Hagler plodded forward and wore people down, that wouldnt happen with Joe, especially since Joe would be naturally stronger as well.

Completely bogus statement,Hagler was too short to move up

Completely bogus statement,Hagler was too short to move up

Really?

Hagler was 5,9 and a half whereas Roberto Duran who started out as a light weight and gave Hagler one of his hardest fights is only 5,7"

Look at Pacquiao

Making excuses for Hagler

I think people are letting their ATG p4p list ranking fool them. Calzaghe is a really good figher, who would be competitive with any of the four even likely p4p. People also forget that Calzaghe doesn't spar when he trains, so that would give him a higher tendency to go down in the early rounds. If Hagler could truly hurt Calzaghe, then I think he could win, but I don't see him hurting Calzaghe besides maybe once early, but we've seen how Calzaghe deals with those situations. I think these two are both built of the same clothe in many ways, both are unorthodox southpaws who are undeniably effective, they both like to impose their will, they both can box or fight, they both are better offensively than defensively. They both have that "hardness" to them that makes them so effective.

Duran by the time he was done moving up in weight,looked like he ate Duran

He did move up though now didnt he you silly boy

On top of that he beat probably the Eighties best fighter, Ray leonard.

Durrrrr!!!

Hagler couldve moved up in weight but didnt, Joe could have and did, alot of fighters have and been very successfull, Marvin was happy enough taking on smaller fighters and then retired like a spoilt brat when one beat him

You've got to remember though that they didn't really have a proper SMW division then, & that fighters would have to jump up 2 divisions, so there is the possibility that had 168lbs division been there & had good fights that Hagler would have gone up towards the end of his career. Although I do agree he could've acted with a LOT more grace after SRL beat him

Super Middleweight division was made a proper division in 1984, now at that time. There was no big names at that weight class at all. So it would of been a waste of time moving up to that weight class, especially with all the big names at Middleweight. Lastly the only other move he could of made was move up to Light Heavyweight and he was clearly too small for that weight class, Ross you know nothing about boxing your an idiot.

Dont cry about it

Hagler wouldve eaten punches all night like Lacy did.

[OumaFan]

shouldn't there have been a grin or something at the end of that second line Ross?

Don't cry about what ? i just gave you a fact and made you look like a tool, which you are. All you try and do is wind people up, you can't have a sensible debate.

And the only fighters you know about are Mike Tyson, Joe Calzaghe, your boxing knowledge is ridiculous. You even claimed Michael Watson was beating Mike McCallum. Do you honestly ready half the crap you come out with ?

[rjj tszyu]

I'd go Hagler by KO. I know Joe's got a solid chin but if Hagler floored him like Jones and Hopkins did he used to have great finishing skills and IMO wouldn't have given him chance to recover like Roy did especially.

[NUCLEAR BULL]

the only way this fight would ever take place is if haglar came out of retirement right now............otherwise calzaghe would never fight him if he was at his peak, marvins now in his 50's which suits calzaghe down to a T............joe would turn down any chance of a prime fight with marvin telling us " marvins not in my league, there's no interest in the fight " he'd then go fight someone we've never heard of whos got 7 loss's on his record out of 26 fights

prime for prime i think haglar would win unless its the same judges who scored the haglar v sugar ray
