Referee will be Richard Steele. The man who refereed their fathers' epic battle.

Do their kids have to fight each other?

How embarrassing. I bet neither of those lard asses could beat their fathers at their current age. Ergo i'd rather watch Hagler-SRL 2.

They couldn't be bothered to get in shape for this epic battle?

Apparently not. They're not even in half decent shape. At least Leonard's kid has some muscular definition to his arms a little bit.

Leonard's in okay shape, but Hagler looks like garbage.

Are they even in better shape than the average bloke?

I'm not in the greatest shape, but I'd put a bit of effort in if I was going to appear in public with my body on show.

I don't understand the mindset of these people. Have they no dignity?

Too much 7-Up?

Ray Jr. has to be in his early 40's. I remember Sugar Ray had his baby picture taped to his leg or shoe during the 76 Olympics..

Is Roberto Durans son fighting the winner for a life long supply of 7-up

So they're fighting a year from now?

Yes, April 8th 2017. Which is 30 years since their father's fought.

They will probably need that long to get in shape.

Which would be more entertaining?

1. See them fight their fathers

2. See them fight each other's fathers

They don't need to box; they should just declare the one with the biggest man tits as the winner!

PS: Isn't it ironic that the press conference took place at a steakhouse?

Hey, they've got 9 months.

Hagler Jr looks like he is expecting, too.

Who is promoting this?

Good question.

Also, are Messrs Hagler & Leonard Sr involved or approving of this?

The whole thing sounds like an April Fool's joke & I can't believe that two celebrated living legends like Marvellous Marvin Hagler & Sugar Ray Leonard would be happy about their legacies being tanished with this farce.

This is ridiculous.

Why not have Ali and Frazier's daughter fight.

Oh never mind.

Will the undercard be all legacy matches as well?

It's actually billed as "the legacy continues"... and to think i thought Chavez Jnr using a similar tagline was a disservice

See first sentence of the article - directly under the heading
