That’s made me sad. Big boxing fan but not much of a historian however I’ve made the effort to watch plenty of Hagler’s fights. A proper fighter.
Probably one of the greatest boxers of all time. His fights with Sugar Ray Leonard and Hearns were fantastic fights in what was a fantastic era for boxing. RIP
Sad news. The scraps with Roberto & Sugar Ray were absolutely legendary. Joe Frazier told Hagler, "You have three strikes against you, "You're black, you're a southpaw, and you're good." RIP, Marvellous Marvin.
Sad night for British boxing that, didn't minter say in the build up a black man would never take his belt. Then hagler hammered him in 4 rounds and the London crowd didn't like it.
