theres a growing number of very transparent Holmes and now hagler knocking threads.....

pay no attention :wink:



but its got me thinking



was Hagler's split second pounce on the staggered Caveman Lee in the 1st round perhaps the greatest ever display of instinctive offensive boxing........??????

someone once discribed Marvin as a force of nature

i believe he could have split the atom that night :box:

Maybe, but Johnson was much bigger than Ketchel, who never stood any chance due to his size

Hagler was invincible in those days. If you recall, Hearns tucked his tail between his legs and ran out on him and that overrated Leonard retired due to a lack of nerve the same year.
