R.I.P. Marvelous Marvin Hagler I'm so shocked and saddened to learn of the passing of this incredible fighter. Without question the greatest Middleweight of all time in my mind. My sincere condolences go out to his family and friends at this time.
Wait I absolutely love his fighting style, how he moves and uses his whole body to give more power, but we shouldn't forget that also Sugar Robindon existed and was an excellent boxer, like Marvin. And was a middleweight too.
Yeah and sky sports are an utter disgrace !! Saying he died at home when his best friend Thomas Learns already stated he died in ICU after complication from taking the vaccine !!!! Yet another cover up !!
Absolutely heartbroken to learn he passed away yesterday. My all time favourite boxer. My condolences to his family. They don’t make them like Hagler anymore 😭. IMO, the greatest middleweight boxer of all time. RIP Champ, you were simply Marvelous 🥊👊
His jab against one was a straight left against another such was his ability to switch equal power but it's his defense and not movement literally couldn't hurt him his head is concrete. Bad man
the best. put him in with any middleweight today in his prime and its not even a contest. Yes even GGG. GGG hasnt fought anyone even nearly as tough as Hagler. Marvelous
I'm not usually emotional when I hear about celebrities and people who I never met passing. Rarely ever. But I cried today when I heard about his passing. He was always my favorite fighter because he embodied every characteristic there was to be a boxer and a fighter and a warrior. Those who understand the sport will understand. He was the embodiment of everything that it meant to be a fighter. his skill, discipline, dedication, power, toughness, relentlessness, etc. he was a fighter's fighter and a warrior's warrior. I cried like a baby today. people like him transcend the sport and show us how powerful someone can become if they are relentless and focused.
I was living in Boston during the '80's. I drove down to Cape Cod where he was training for the Duran fight. I took a photo of him, enlarged and framed it, and it has been displayed in my garage ever since. I also shook his hand. The only celebrity I ever met. RIP Marvelous.
Agree....many people believe he won all 3 of his loses. Both his draws are robberys also. He avenged all loses except SRL. He avenged both draws. Poor Hagler in my personal opinion like other people, is that he is undefeated in our hearts. Good switch stance, super hard hitting along with best chin maybe in history + cardio machine.
@@H.K.5 Hagler wasn't in his prime cause he had lost his reflexes and speed also he was afected by his wars against Hearns and Mugabi while Leonard was training without problems for a fight with Hagler. Leonard should have fought Hagler in 82 and he didn't because he knew that he cannot beat Hagler in his prime. That is why Robinson was better than Leonard for me.
To the kids of today, boxing in the 1970s and 80s wasn't the manufactured WWE/UFC Hollywood scripts in vogue now. Hagler had to march through fire to get a shot at the title, facing Philly legends and overcoming corrupt officiating until his prowess could not be denied. Rest in Peace brother and champion forever.
Easily one of the best middleweights of all time. If he didn't agree to SRL terms and if SRL fought him 5 years earlier instead of dodging him, Hagler would have destroyed him. Plus he got robbed on his draws and some losses which he ended up avenging thankfully. He was an amazing fighter
The ONLY fight he might have lost was against Willie Monroe. I say might have lost because it was close and certainly wasn't a robbery like you get today. Leonard won because he was still standing at the end. Hagler was older and STILL chased him out of the ring. And Leonard knew it!
@@constantine7382 I'd say Robinson was better as a welterweight, which isn't saying much because he was great at Middleweight but he looked beatable, not straight up invincible like at welter. Greb on the other hand has a sound argument for top 3 middleweights of all time
@@yentamoon1808 That's a good argument. I rate Robinson as the best Welter ever. He was amazing. He's known more at middle because of the more high profile fights at that weight. I rate Greb as the best ever, with Robinson a close second all time. But I won't argue your ranking. You have them both high and that's good enough.
Facts. He was the ruler of the division for 10 years. He was the Undisputed Champion for 7 and a half years. Still to this day, he is the longest reigning Undisputed Middleweight Champion in Boxing history. Not Triple Garbage, Not BHop & Not Sugar Ray Robinson. It's Marvelous Marvin! FACTS
@@kaseywinbornery5258 watched triple g fights, i second that, pure garbage!!!! Ive heard these phony comparisons making the rounds on youtube of how he would have beat marvelous marv if he fought in those days....BULLSHIT!!!!!
One of the greatest fighters of all time. The way he handled Hearns was truly a masterpiece. His ability to interchange Orthodox and Southpaw was pure talent.
One of the best for sure, everyone remembers his fights against Hearns, Sugar Ray and Duran but he fought great competition even before he was champ - Bennie Briscoe, Eugene "Cyclone" Hart, Willie Monroe, he took on all the tough fighters.
He had a trilogy with the Olympic gold medalist sugar Ray seals I think it was drew one of them. before he even got a shot. And took a few losses. Basically all the black guys who were the real killers got kept away from the other fighters who sold tickets. Tht Italian guy who got s draw with hagler and Alan minter English guy who had fought nowhere near competition and still lost a few times at British and commonwealth level. Before winning his title that hagler eventually got.
my dad worked in New England in the 70s/early 80s, met Marvin on the job one day, came home after work just beaming on what a nice guy he was. Hagler has been my favorite boxer ever from that day forward.
He certainly is (a nice guy). I obtained an email address for him years ago, sent him an email and he replied wishing me all the best. If anyone had the right to have a swelled head he does - but he definitely doesn't.
😊I knew Marvin in passing. He was a few years older but we crossed paths a few times. I rembember him riding up to us on a moped the day we met. Marvin was the kind of person you invited to your house to have dinner two seconds after you met him. He was that kind and interesting at the same time. Nothing like the beast you see in the ring. The "KING OF THE RING" IMO!😉😇
Baddest man on the planet when I was little ..everyone in my home was a Ray Leonard or Hearns fan , but Hagler was my man..& we are from Detroit, so seeing Hagler fuk Hearns up was a heartbreaker for my folks lol
Yeah I loved Thomas Hearns especially when he put on weight and went up the divisions. But that night against Hagler he did surely get beaten up in the end and Haglers concrete head was on full display taking some of the best Hitman shots. Although amazingly Hearns had a damaged right hand but still fought on, but it was a fight for the ages and probably Haglers most devestating performance.
true story, UPS driver had a package without a name on it, he brought it to haglers house, hagler asked him how you know its my package, the driver said because it had BAD MUTHERF%/%# written on it.
I got a better one.....Me and my buddy met Hagler in a restaurant back in 2004, maybe 2005. We got to talking, traded rounds, asked him who was the hardest puncher he ever met. His answer - HIS GRANDMOTHER!!!
RIP Champ, America didn't give you the love and respect that you deserved. You were far bigger than America, you were the World and the world Loved you brother.
If this man is not in your Top 5 Greatest Boxers list, I don't want to know you. He exemplified everything about a great boxer. He was so fit, it was kind of funny. Bruce Lee fitness. The power. The determination. The mind. Love this man. Influenced me so much growing up. Glad he lived his days after boxing in peace and in happiness. He deserved that.
Lots of slaves were gladiators dumbass go read history books. It has been documented enough to be common knowledge. Lots of African were Roman emperors, at least 10 of them. Skin colour wasn’t as important back then as it became now due to racism being more prominent now than ever believe or not
They were called Numidians due to the fact they came from the Northern Territory of Africa and central desert Africa. Most of them were blacks and whites, many of them became legionaries or joined ranks in the Roman military. Numidan means Nomad. Actually they had a move that is quite much close to Hagler's gazelle jab, it's called the leaping strike, you hold your short sword and then put your weight on the front foot and shoot a thrust forwards to your oponent after blocking one of his strikes. You can even run towards the target and then leap with your front foot when being at enough close distance, and then you conclude with a thrust of Xiphos. Search what is a xiphos.
My all-time favorite boxer! I never missed a fight of this great boxing legend! The greatest of all time! Rest in peace, Marvelous Marvin Hagler!! ❤️🙏❤️🙏
I had the pleasure of meeting Marvin Hagler with a good buddy of mine back in 2004, 2005. He was the nicest guy you could ever meet, for a celebrity. At the time he was, I think 53 (?). Let me tell you, this guy was still in awesome shape. We took some pictures, and grabbing his back, his body was hard as a rock. His fist was the size of large sledgehammer and he put it to the side of my head for contrast, his entire fist was about as large as my entire face. Just a down to earth guy, which you would never expect. He even spoke fluent Italian as he said that he was doing Italian action movies. Talked to us alot about boxing and had all sorts of boxing stories. This guy is extremely intelligent, well spoken,....Just doesn't get the credit for being the best middle weight of all time, being a decent human being and never ever getting in trouble like the majority of boxers. Completely respectful. When I go to my grave, meeting him will be one of the highlights of my life.
R.I.P. Champ one of the goats of boxing I was raised up on his style of boxing much love and respect hagler vs Leonard and hearns str8 classics I still rather watch this era of boxing 🥊 any day of the week. Legends
He was the greatest middleweight and the toughest fighter to ever live. I am not getting caught up in the moment after his passing. It's the truth. and he never lost decisively and all of his losses were arguably robberies. he would beat the brakes off of GGG and Canelo. he was a different level of toughness.
Marvin hagler one of the finest fighter ever in boxing history!!! A real deal a complete pkg fighter!!!!! Fighters like hagler that's what boxing needs in these days yes indeed!!!!!!!
R.I.P. Marvelous Marvin Hagler I'm so shocked and saddened to learn of the passing of this incredible fighter. Without question the greatest Middleweight of all time in my mind. My sincere condolences go out to his family and friends at this time.

@@waynethomashenson9043 Four days after taking the covid jab, I post this loads coz it keeps getting taken down.

Oh, yes they do. You trust me. They do.
It's difficult to beat a guy who knocks people down with his jab. Great highlight.
Escariot Nah it’s difficult to beat a guy who simply cannot even be fazed by mere punches from a mortal

God needed security for those trying to sneak in. He made the right choice.
He's on the door.
Hagler is their newest bouncer
God picked hagler to be his champion.
You mean heaven just got Marvelous?
Hagler was such a warrior! His tenacious mindset shines through in his fighting style. Ruthless
You're right, i think it was his mindset that took him above all others. Dude was intense beyond measure.
He's such a badass. Love Hagler. Dude is tough as nails.
The kids today have no idea. Thanks for posting great footage of a great boxer!
He was a smart fucking monster. The best. 52 KO, my god
I remember watching these fight with my dad and one day he told me:
“Son, this guy will be the best ever” and that guy was Albert Einstein
@Fish boy "Boomer" isn't relevant anymore nobody says Boomer anymore.
@YCNAiden And you just proved his point. Lmao wtf
Such incredible footwork. Switching stances to his advantage up close so quickly
Hagler was a BEAST! One of my favorite boxers. Supreme conditioning....power....smarts. Complete fighter.
Nobody before him, during his time or thereafter has exceeded his conditioning. IMO, none have have exceeded his level of badassery, either.
stone mason mayweather has great great conditioning never seen him out of breath
@@jopilot4126 agreed. Best boxer in the world (Loma is well on his way to dethroning Flloyd for that ) and the best fighter to have graced the ring.

@Yang Mojo top 3
the best. put him in with any middleweight today in his prime and its not even a contest. Yes even GGG. GGG hasnt fought anyone even nearly as tough as Hagler. Marvelous
@Petar Mrkic Roy wasn't in his prime at middleweight. He'd get destroyed by Marvin.
GGG is the only guy with a remote chance, that only because his chin is made of the same godly substance as Marvin's.
@@gershomtan5879 i think canelo had a great chance too.
@@misaelestrada5370 possible, I gotta give him credit for fighting on par with GGG. To me he split the two matches with GGG, the draw was a robbery.
@Petar Mrkic roy would be destroyed
Probably the greatest switch puncher of all time he switches from south paw to orthodox and vice versa so fluently in between punches
Agreed, during some of combos he switches back and forth to the point where he doesn't even have a stance..incredible to watch.
You know he had power knocking people out with the edge of his gloves. That temple shot was crazy too.💀
I'm not usually emotional when I hear about celebrities and people who I never met passing. Rarely ever. But I cried today when I heard about his passing.

For real, the ultimate embodiment of boxing.
@@flynnconolly9006 not just boxing. he was the embodiment of being a savage.
Agree. I'm from RI and Hagler use to train at Cape Cod at the P-town Inn gym. He was a class act and very discipline when he was training, amazing.
Dude... This man was my favorite boxer. My inspiration for the sport. RIP Champ, you had a chin of granite, hands of lead and a heart of gold.
I knew i would like this about 5 seconds in... Great highlights man
Robberies are the only reason this man isn't the GOAT
Agree....many people believe he won all 3 of his loses. Both his draws are robberys also. He avenged all loses except SRL. He avenged both draws. Poor Hagler in my personal opinion like other people, is that he is undefeated in our hearts. Good switch stance, super hard hitting along with best chin maybe in history + cardio machine.
You got that right my favorite middleweight if not favorite fighter of all time
Buddy Boy12 I just wish he didn't agree to Ray Leonard's terms for the fight he basically put all odds against himself
@@H.K.5 In their prime Hagler beats Leonard.

Hagler was complete. In shape, powerful fast puches, good defense and throw good combinations. Top it off legendary chin.
To the kids of today, boxing in the 1970s and 80s wasn't the manufactured WWE/UFC Hollywood scripts in vogue now. Hagler had to march through fire to get a shot at the title, facing Philly legends and overcoming corrupt officiating until his prowess could not be denied.
