Marvin Hagler RIP.

He was brilliant: skill, toughness, power and menace all wrapped in a velvet, hooded robe. RIP.
 
A total legend. I remember when Alan Minter, who was a good lad and fighter, beat someone and then said " I want Hagler " defiantly. Then Marvin destroyed him within a few rounds !

Just a few great fighters here from that era.
 
Was only watching some of his video's yesterday without even realising he'd passed, he didn't have the flash moves of Tommy and Sugar Ray, but he was every bit as good as them, and yet never truly received the recognition in comparison, and tough ? If I was to build my perfect fighter, it would have the toughness, resilience, mental strength and will to win of Marvin, truly incredible how tough this lad was.

I actually feel blessed I was active and around the sport during this era, so many great memories and Marvin being a huge part of that.

R.I.P Marvelous Marvin Hagler, the ultimate warrior.
 
An absolute icon of a sportsman , they really don’t make them like that anymore . RIP CHAMP
