Most Intimidating Fighter That Ever Lived

[man]

Hagler would definitely fight to the death in any situation.

he didn't against leonard.

He wasn't allowed to, Leonard didn't stay in front of him long enough, and Marvin couldn't pull the trigger.

Are you suggesting he punked out against Leonard? Laughable if you are.

Marvin expected Leonard to stand there and fight, which was always stupid, Marvin wasn't the smartest man in the world, certainly not compared to Leonard. He also probably figured Leonard would fade badly and he would be able to stop him, again, he was wrong, Leonard had enough left to avoid Hagler during the last 3 rounds.

he fought a tactical fight against
a tactical fighter, he tried to box
a boxer. for sure he did not "fight
to the death".

of course he was not afraid of ray.
but he did many things wrong,
beginning with coming out as an
orthodox fighter.

Bnovelist is underappreciated.

I recon Gerald Mcclellan is worth a mention.

My point was that Hagler was scared of nobody, and in a fight on the street, he'd have gone at it until you buried him. He stood toe to toe with Mugabi, who was younger, possibly physically stronger, and a hellacious puncher. Perhaps you should read the question the thread puts.

Getting outboxed by Ray Leonard is relevant how?

apart from obvious candidates like foreman, Tyson, liston........Nigel benn was a mean spirited dude, how can u compare GGG to his meanness?
Iran Barkley was intimidating.
Tommy hearns could end it in a heartbeat.

even a FW like hamed liked to torture lessor fighters in the ring.

With some its not just the immediate HW power, some are capable of prolonging the beating.

and perhaps you should read what
you write ...

Hagler would definitely fight to the death in any situation.

... but maybe the way he fought
against ray is your very definition
of "to the death in any situation".
