Hagler Vs. Hopkins: who wins? explain.

[Dynamite Kid]

am just saying. you're making out like hopkins is the biggest 160 fighter who ever lived. so i thought id show you monzon!

Nah im making out he is a a big 160 pounder because he is, and im showing you why i think he is a big 160lbs, when you dont think he is.

[Dynamite Kid]

Personally I think BOTH would beat Monzon.

Yeah ?

I dont know much about Monzon so i did not comment.

Yeah ?

I dont know much about Monzon so i did not comment.

I've never really been high on Monzon's abilities. Quite frankly if you can find an ATG who looks MORE ordinary than Monzon I'd like to see it.

Have to disagree with you here. Monzon was methodical technically sound, and completey unflappable in the ring. He stood in there calmy and patiently and picked guys apart with sharp, straight blows and unerring accuracy. He would control the rythem and pace of a fight, aswell as using his exceptional counterpunching abilty.

He also had a mean streak a mile long and enjoyed giving a guy a good beating. Monzon may have been heavy footed and his hands weren't so fast either,. But he did so many things so well that he was damn near perfect, even if it didn't always look like it.

Quite frankly, apart from his jab & generalmanship, you're right, but no one around at the time could hurt him.. He had a cast iron exterior.. A seriously hard individual, who was slightly unpolished in the skills department..
