Hagler has all the tools a great fighter should have- physically and technically. He trained in old school fashion harder than any fighter during his reign. Was disciplined with his diet, routine, and staying away from women during training. Fighting Hagler wasn't an honor, it was a nightmere, because everyone he fought knew he was impossible to hurt.
Hagler was just the " the best " bar none . Minter said of him that you jabbed and he jabbed but he hit and you missed and looking @ him he had long arms , small head , could switch hit effortlessly , a chin made of granite , a skill level that put him above all competitors just the best middleweight and one of the greatest pound for pound fighters ever . No way did leonard beat him in that last fight , no way
Hagler was a ruthless,merciless warrior with an iron jaw who dominated his division before his very controversial loss.The greatest middleweight of all time ??? A resounding YES!!!
@ironman36 Are you completely insane Manny started his career at 106lbs and has dominated a good four of five divisions and God the man has beaten every top fighter put in front of him, I doubt that I could see Marvin Hagler dominating at Cruiserweight or Heavyweight
@b52gf16c who says that marvin hagler would've dominated at cruiserweight? all im saying is that the dick that whom you Pacman fans so love to ride does not hold a candle stick to Hagler. that's all im saying, dick rider.
@b52gf16c WOW. Manny winning those titles with a "catch weight " clause? Thats really impressive of him. Sorry but that achievement is not the fake to me
if Haglers 1st world title shot was a draw at worst so was the leonard fight, how do you take a tittle from a champion + give it to someone who show boated the whole fight, did he ever hurt Hagler, did Hagler land the cleaner shots, did Hagler have him out on his feet in the 9th, did Leonard not say to Hagler "Champ you won" he knows who won, perhaps Hagler should have sucked up to those wanting more from him maybe he would have retained his tittle, but that wasnt his style, the best by far.
Hagler trained like a fiend. The roadwork portion of his training alone was typical of someone preparing to run a marathon. That probably accounts for how much better his stamina was than that of even a great champion like Leonard by the end of their fight. It also may have something to do with why Hagler was never legitimately knocked down in his career.
Naw...Ray won that one unfortunately. I would have like to see Sugar get that mouth shut. They were both great. Hey! anyone else see a similarity between "Sugar Ray" Leonard and Floyd "Money" Mayweather?
Yeah that is true! My dad educated me on that dude when he was digging up some of his old tapes. So true. It would not have been easy though...I'm kinda mad he retired though...But I could see why.
@ManlnCognito never !! too clever for hagler and in his prime to quick ! hagle had trouble with movers like monroe even early in his career and in his prime struggled with duran ! its easy knocking over tomatoe cans like caveman lee !! but a bit different with a boxer as talented as leonard !!
@johnosandra if i remember correctly hagler lost to leonard and that was with leonard having 1 fight in 5 years and with hagler being active and naturally bigger !! now who's the fucking chump lol
@johnosandra you mug you probably never even stepped into the ring expert my arse !! hold on wait a minute when leoanrd was welter weight duran,benitez,hearns and kalule had combined record of a 175 wins and one loss between them and stopped them all ! together with welter,lightmiddle middle and supermiddleand lighheavyweight titles he won !! never had the balls to move up and face spinks !! every exerts poll puts leonard in front oh hagler all time list ! yes leonard won fair and square !!!
@johnosandra you mug you probably never stepped into the ring expert my arse hold on wait a minute when leoanrd was welter weight duran,benitez,hearns and kalule had combined record of a 175 wins and one loss between them and he stopped them all ! together with welter,lightmiddle middle. supermiddle and lighheavyweight titles he won !! hagler never had the balls to move up and face spinks every exerts poll puts leonard in front oh hagler all time list ! yes leonard won fair and square !!!
@johnosandra you mug leonard moved up to avoid aaron pryor pryor never ventured up to welterweight before he retired in 1984 as for banging with mugabi lol he was a lightmiddle and in his next fight got stopped by duane thomas and then got destroyed by terry norris lol know ur facts before you comment ! leonard was always in super shape but showed far more by moving up and beating bigger fighters unlike hagler could !! leonard beat all the top fighters in his weight !! leonard was greater !!
@johnosandra i just the shoved the facts right down ur throat with ur comments about mugabi and aaron pryor you mug oh yeah lol by the way pryor got offered half a million dollars to fight leonard in 1981 and turned it down now who avoided who lol !! duran,benitez,hearns and hagler all got beat by this mediocre sugar ray leoanrd whats does it make them lol fuck off mug and go watch some more footage of leonard beating hagler ur sure need to be educated !! mug
i could not give a toss if you became the marques of queensbury ! i boxed for 10 years and lost in the ABA finals in the early nineties ! as a fact pryor did turn down a fight against leonard in 1981 but he turned it down because he got half a million dollars and felt he deserved more so there was no fight go do your homework before you comment ! pryor never moved up to welterweight till his comeback fight against bobby joe young which he got koed !got dropped five times as a lightwelter lol
@sweetassugar69 Leonard was great, no doubt. But he was also smart. That's why after the Kevin Howard fight, he decided not to fight Marvin. At that time, Hagler was in his prime. If Leonard fancied his chances, he would have fought Marv then. Hagler had just had two wars with Hearns and Mugabi when Leonard finally made the match. I think the decision could have gone to either guy by two rounds, depending on your style preference. The 118-110 score was a joke, though.
@onepunch1968 Hagler a southpaw came into that fight fighting righthanded and lost the first 5 rnd straight.That score wasnt a joke,Leonard outboxed him that night,no doubt
@johnosandra don't talk out your arse yes mugabi had a big punch but he never beat a decent fighter when he did he lost to hagler in 11, duane thomas terry norris and gerald mcllennan ! as i said before its ok knocking over tomatoe cans but its another story against class !!! go to the record books and see the diary of 1987 april 6th and read after 1 fight in 5 years a natural welterweight moved up to defeat the best p4p in tqhe world marvin hagler !! get used to it mug !!
@johnosandra r u mickey duff or jarvis astaire lol as i said before its ok knocking over tomatoe cans but a bit different against class ! mugabi had gr8 ko power but when up against other good fighters he lost period !! lets get back to the subject leonard deserved the win against hagler !!!
I had to watch this fight cuz my mind has just been numbed by all those morons who not only think that Carl Froch is great, but won that fight with Dirrell. Leonard won that fight cuz he believed Hagler had suddenly gotten old. He was right, if Hagler was in his prime, Mugabi woulda' lasted about as long as this guy did.
Mugabi did have an excellent chin in those days, it has to be said.
I nearly fell off my chair when reading a recent feature on Hagler where it turned out that he had fought Hagler while out of shape. It must have seemed a good idea at the time.
Sorta, Leonard danced, jabbed, moved, flurried more. Mayweather has a wider stance and conserves more energy by stayin' in the pocket. He's a counter puncher. He's similar to Pep, Benitez, Whitaker...
This fight is suspicious to me. Hagler-Hearns was inevitable for big time money so why would manny stewart want his man to beat hagler in a fight that pays almost nothing?
FYI if caveman(implication of stupidity) had criminal and drug problems that is his damn fault i don't want some poster taking that out on me.
I Just Spent a couple of Hours with Caveman Lee,He is out of Jail now and he is doing good I Picked him up on Dexter and Elmhurst here in Detroit...He is Lookin like his old self>>>>
I want to find out more about Caveman Lee, can anyone please give me any links, articles or any information about him please. Thanks. Daniel Naughton is a wank
William 'Caveman' Lee now works for Ferrous Metals Inc. in southwest Detroit and co-trains amateur boxers with former Kronk stablemate and world light-heavyweight contender Mickey Goodwin. He looks the same except for some gray hair.
Caveman Lee...one of the many sad boxing stories. The guy was very RAW, but had he stuck with Kronk he probably could've earned some BIG paydays. Had a lot of problems with the law, and I think he's serving a life sentence. To his credit, though, his fight with LoCicero is still considered to be the greatest fight in ESPN history.
another great one. Hearns and Hagler were so great that when they fought they sort of depleted each other of 10 percent of their skills. Neither was ever the same after April 1985
I believe Mickey Goodwin was slated to fight Hagler before he injured his hand. Steward sent Caveman Lee in for Goodwin and was soundly thrashed.
