15 Rounds Middleweight Bout
In the battle of the southpaws, Graham would out-box Hagler in the early rounds behind his right jabs and combinations, but the Marvelous One would wear Graham down with his right jabs and body punches in the middle rounds, then Hagler would put him away with a crushing right hook for a KO win in 10 rounds. What do you guys think and who do you got?
Middleweights: Marvelous Marvin Hagler vs. Herol Graham
Re: Middleweights: Marvelous Marvin Hagler vs. Herol Graham
Yeah, Hagler stops him. As great as Herol was, he doesn’t beat an ATG like Hagler.
Re: Middleweights: Marvelous Marvin Hagler vs. Herol Graham
I don't know that "Great" applies to Herol Graham. He was certainly very good. Hagler would beat him in one sided fashion, and almost certainly knock him out.
Re: Middleweights: Marvelous Marvin Hagler vs. Herol Graham
Hagler all day and twice on a Sunday. No way does bomber beat the marvelous one.
Re: Middleweights: Marvelous Marvin Hagler vs. Herol Graham
It could have happened as well. Graham was thereabouts towards the end of Hagler’s reign. It probably wouldn’t have created enough coin though.
Re: Middleweights: Marvelous Marvin Hagler vs. Herol Graham
The question should be 'what round.'
Re: Middleweights: Marvelous Marvin Hagler vs. Herol Graham
Exactly. Graham might be able to stay out of Hagler’s way for a bit but he’d eventually be stopped
Re: Middleweights: Marvelous Marvin Hagler vs. Herol Graham
Graham is sooo underrated....
But he's facing off against one of the greatest here - Marvin KOs him late.
