I can't believe how anyone can even compare Hagler vs Hearns to Corrales/Castilo. Hagler and Hearns were champs those other guys were journeymen. What made Hagler-Hearns so great was that these were two elite fighters tearing into each other. Please don't insult Hagler-Hearns by comparing it to this other crap.
these guys were inhuman. hearns moving around from 147 to 175 icing fools like it aint nothin. fighting someone like hagler who already has a size advantage with one hand. and then hagler.. what a monster. what can u say he was just an animal. two of the baddest dudes of all time in one ring, fighting with all they got. when boxing is at its best.. nothing can compare
This wasn´t Hearns first fight at 160, he fought Singletary in 81,´Geraldo in ´82 and Sutherland in ´83 at 160lb. All non title bouts though. You cant keep but wondering how this one would have turned out if he hadn´t hurt his right hand, Hearns got the better of Hagler until he broke it. I think Hearns went into a panic loosing his most powerful weapon.
Hagler knew the only way to beat Hearns was to drag him into a dogfight, and he did...
I definitely agree with all of you....most certainly the best fight ever, and I wish we could go back to the days of real champions and superstars fighting one another on a regular basis, and without sceaming "the money has to be right." Tommy actually broke his hand in the first round and still was throwing it with authority, but Marvin was a beast nonetheless.
Hearns was overtrained for the fight..he lost his legs after the 1st round, but couldnt knock out hagler who had one of the best chins in middleweight history
The reason why hearns could not knock out hagler is because this was hearns first fight at 160, hagler was a true hard bust your ass middleweight,did not matter,hagler had a head like concrete,
I think they are different kinds of fights. I think castillo corrales1 is the equal of Hagler vs mugabe. as far as matching up with this fight they are simply two different animals. one a long term slug fest with lots of dazzling spots, one essentially a long flurry between two of the greatest fighters ever to put on gloves.
hagler hearns great gight,diego corrales v castillo was a better fight,what do you think,in my opinion hagler kicked sugar ray leonards ass in 87,Marvin Hagler renowned around the world and a legend,the most respected marvin hagler
