Randy Turpin v.s Marvelous Marvin Hagler

[Bad_Intentions]

Hagler KO 9th round.

[TBooze]

Turpin was no mug and brave (until the last moments of his life), but Marvin was Marvelous

Hagler WU15 (12 rounds to 3)

[Duodenum]

Turpin was one of the earliest weight trained boxing champions in the lower weight classes, and would have had an advantage over Marv in physical strength. Ask Alan Minter, Vito Antufermo, and Mustafa Hamsho how much superior physical strength helped them against Hagler. Unfortunately for Turpin, this is boxing, not wrestling.

Randy doesn't get to the championship rounds.

Hagler-Too much class for Turpin.

marvin eventually found this out himself when licked by smaller and more skilled Ray Leonard of course.

I don't think this will be about strength. I believe Hagler could handle agression better than Ray Robinson. If Hagler felt like Turpin was stronger, he would choose to out box him, and he could. I pick Robinson over Hagler head to head, and in terms of greatness, but this is just a style thing. Hagler by decision. I would say 9-6 in rounds.

[Russell]

Hagler, but it really depends on what Turpin comes to this fight. The man varied quite a bit, but as his best he was amazing.
