Former two-time IBF World Lightweight Champion, Greg Haugen, dies. One of the toughies of the 80s decade, was most known for accusing the great Julio Cesar Chavez that Chavez padded his record by fighting Tijuana taxi drivers.

He was 64. RIP, champ!

A very enjoyable fighter to watch. RIP champ

Sad news. I enjoyed watching his fights. Really got into the vinnie Paz rivalry

Good lightweight champion as Haugen fought JCC Sr., Sweet Pea, Camacho, Paz and Boom Boom Mancini.

RIP Champ

Met him in 2008 at hall of fame induction in Los Angeles. He had a swollen eye from a street fight just prior. He was a take no shit kinda guy. Much respect.

Sad to hear. Was a fun guy to watch.
