Question How do you guys see a fight with Hearns and Duran P4P? I always felt Hearns had his number your views?
I second this vote.The Durable Dane wrote:1.Roberto Duran
2.Sugar Ray Leonard

4.Thomas Hearns
But all great boxers and true legends.
All were good,VERY good fighters,but I think Hagler certainly ranks with Duran as THE best,then Leonard,and Hearns lastly.Taking nothing from Hearns,just overall skills,achievements etc.Hagler ruled and cleaned out his division against the best his era could offer.Duran did the same.I used to be a #1 Leonard fan,until he pulled some of his later year stunts,like I personally thought the Hagler fight was not right,and how in the world does he demand that the reigning Champion Lalonde come down in weight to accomodate him,and he wins 2 titles.I know it was done for the money,but that was phony.Had HAgler fought him like he did,Hearns,you would have seen a different outcome.So I place p4p 1:Duran 2:Hagler And Leonard and Hearns tie for 3rd.dr_devious wrote:Im surprised Hagler is so rated so low, even at number 4 on some lists. P4P its difficult to split Hagler, Duran and Leonard IMO, with Hearns probably a shade below
That may be true but Hagler was given a tough fight by a Lightweight and Lost to a Welterweight.. Im rating them Head To Head not in terms of accomplishment'sDecagon wrote:I think it's silly to even think about ranking him below Hearns, who LOST the two biggest fights of his life by knockout.dr_devious wrote:Im surprised Hagler is so rated so low, even at number 4 on some lists.

Hagler, past his best and in his last fight dropped a dubious decision to the media darling of the 80s. Hagler was the best middleweight in the world for almost 10 years, and ruled as world champion for 7.Victor*KC wrote:That may be true but Hagler was given a tough fight by a Lightweight and Lost to a Welterweight..
