RIP Marvelous Marvin Hagler

IMO, the greatest middleweight boxer in the sport alone, and in an era when boxing was the most talked about sport. Gone too soon at the age of 66.

Watched the Hearns fight at the O’Connell Ctr. on Closed Circuit T.V. Great fight!

R.I.P. Champ.

I wonder what he died from as I remember him saying he left soon enough not to have issues some years back. That Hearns fight was one of the best with how he went to work when he saw they might stop it for cuts.

If you get punched the head that many times it can have an effect, amazing fighter

Haven't heard what it was that actually killed him but evidently he took the Covid vaccine and then had to be rushed to the ICU sometime after taking it.

Could be a while before the cause of death is determined.

Sugar Ray Leonard is one one my all time favorites but I believe Hagler won that match back in 1987.
Damn! That was my Senior year in high school.

Yep I would have gave it to Hagler for Leonard being so defensive even for him in that fight.

Leonard, Hagler, Hearns, and Duran boxing at it’s best.
