Hagler vs Floyd 154lb

[IKSRTFO]

Before the "Hagler would be drained answers", remember, Hagler was a middleweight in the time of the SAME DAY WEIGH IN which means he would've been able to make 154 today. How do you think it would go?

[Jaywheel]

It wouldn't go. PBF would never sign for that fight. Pac might agree at 145 though.

[tommo100]

lol,imagine pbf fighting a marauding hagler :)
if it ever did materialise then floyd would be in a world of trouble
hagler would find him and punish him badly,you needed an army to fend hagler off and iv`e only ever seen duran and mugabi take him to the limit,don`t think floyd has the heart to take what hagler would serve up,he would`nt dare to fight inside,the only way he could win was to do a leonard and box on the run,floyd does`nt have leonards speed or his knockout right hand,so i see hagler catching up with and making him cry

[IKSRTFO]

Imagine the 24/7 build up to this one. The training. The face/off with Mayweather trying to trash talk to Hagler. The staredown.

[loaded_gloves]

Floyd won't sign to fight a flyweight but he'd sign to fight Marvin Hagler?

I simply can't suspend my disbelief long enough to even consider this fantasy match up.

[tennessee]

we could trick floyd into thinking he was fighting paulie malignaggi only to send a ripped and snarling Hagler into the ring! floyd pulls an oliver mccall, screaming and crying and runs off to never be seen again.

The size discrepencey would be incredible... Hagler probably entering the ring low 170's if he's got modern day hydration, so theres no other logic than Hagler literally bullying him from corner to corner of the ring.

Kind of unsure about that. Don't think Hagler ever was that heavy in the ring especially without the 24 hour weigh in. He never even seemed heavy between fights until the end. He was only maybe 5'9. That's why I said today i could see Hagler possibley as a light-middle.

Specifically,Hagler's 5'9-1/2 with a 75" reach,Mayweather's 5 ' 8 with a 72" reach. Mayweather walks around at 150. He'd weigh in around that weight and come in around that weight,Hagler would come in upper 160's. Mayweather would run,similiar to Leonard but not as effectively. The potshotting would just lead to more HaglerRage,more Angry energy produced for Hagler's benefit. I actually see Mayweather going the distance and probably not even hitting the deck but just not doing much of anything. Hagler by a 120-108 type decision.

I'm guessing Floyd goes down the SRL route with this fight though? he has a chance with that routine surely?

Hagler would not have gone below middle and if Floyd was insane enough to take him on-then its one way traffic...

Look what Hearns got

James

That's a crap comparison James, Hearns was a tall KO artist, who by the way tagged Hagler in that first round and that's the first and last wobble I saw Marvin take. Anyway Floyd fights behind his great defence, not to say Thomas didn't have a defence but it was not on Floyd's level. Hearns and Floyd are opposite ends of the scale style wise, Thomas would let his ego out and look for a ding dong, Floyd won't go that way unless he's sure the opening is there

Floyd would not be stupid enough to try & blast out a bigger man with a titanium chin, like Hearns did to Hagler, although, TBF, Hearns is much taller than Hagler, but he was the 'little guy' in the fight. D

As for such a fight, although Floyd is a defensive master that doesn't take risks, he would not be able to evade Hagler for 12 rounds.

Marvin would eventually catch up with him & bust him up, although I can see a scenario whereby Hagler pays Mayweather too much respect & allows the fight to go the distance & risk losing or drawing.

[Ambling Alp]

This sure is a hypothetical. Neither guy would want this fight. Mayweather wouldn't take the risk against someone that good. Hagler would never take a big fight at 154.(Or more than 160 for that matter.)
