The good 'ol days when great fighters fought great fighters. And the bottom line? Fans respect and admire both fighters not just the winner. Nowadays we just shrug at most fights.

I think this is what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object.

for real,they definitely had bad intentions on the end of those shots, awesome fight brings back tears cause i had money on tommy. tommy was one of the best.

even the referees were good back then, watch the foot work, the man had style.

[David Merrell]

couple times the ref went to break them up only to have them start swinging for the fences and he just kinda jumped the fuck out of there. lol He didnt wanna get caught with one of those bad intentions.

The ref bounces around like he wants to land a couple too.

THE WAR

This is THE best first round in boxing history in my opinion. Both Hagler and Hearns were in their prime. When boxing was still great to watch. Middleweight class was the best weight class in the 80s with the best boxers even with Iron Mike as a Heavyweight in his class back then. As far as boxers go, Marvin Hagler is my 2nd favorite boxer all time behind Ali aka Cassius Clay.
