[@hippocripocity]

I met Marvin just before he fought for the championship against Vito.I trained with his brother Robbie Sims a couple times sparred with him, usually sparred with welterweights Doug Sherrin ,Danny Avery,James Lucas, Barry Hurst.Marvin was a class act he would come up to me and give me advice while hitting the bag ,I also am a left handed boxer.Marvin once refed an exhibition bout I had with one of the fighters from Petronellis, gym Steve Hillyard after he won the title from Minter.

[@ArtistFormerlyKnownAsShitlord]

My parents met Marvelous in a cafe in Milan back in the 90s. My dad, who is a huge boxing fan, and always loved Hagler, approached him and asked very politely for an autograph, and Marvelous was very happy to oblige him. My dad - who is British - took that opportunity to apologise for the fans at the Hagler v Minter fight. Hagler laughed his head off, patted my dad on the back and thanked him for the apology, but told him that it was cool because he'd visited the UK a few times since then and had always been made to feel very welcome. He then posed for a picture with my dad, and left. My dad framed that picture and it's still up on the wall in their living room. R.I.P. MMH. You were a class act and a true warrior. P.S. Brilliant video. Thank you.

He put the mustard to Mustafa. 6. He tamed The Beast into a house cat. 7. He dishes a plate of justice to Brit who said, "no Blackman is gonna take my title". In his own house. They rioted . 8. He served a great plate of spaghetti to Vito. 9. He made a sissy marathon runner of an Olympian. Ray deserved a draw. He basically destroyed everyone in his path and that to me makes him the greatest middle weight ever. Long Live the King Marvelous Marvin Hagler and may God keep him in his kingdom.

I just watched that fight and it clearly looked like Leonard won. Hagler gave away the first 4 or 5 rounds and Leonard was the busier fighter. Hagler did land the harder punches when he could land but Leonard’s speed was a big factor. He made Hagler miss a lot especially in the earlier rounds. I thought the judges were pretty accurate although one judge scored 118-110 which I thought was a little much. 115-113 was about right in favor of Leonard.

Excellent tribute to a legendary boxer. R.I.P. Marvelous Marvin Hagler.

[@kevinlecointe4224]

Well said Rummy. I've always liked your videos, may not always agreed, but always liked them. This said so much for me and mirrored my love of Marvin's boxing. Thank brother, well said.

[@winstonlemaster1693]

[@DiaperDandy33]

Greatest middleweight of all time, Rest in Peace Champ. 🙏🙏🙏

[@davidfitzpatrick8156]

One of my favorite boxers of all times. RIP MARVELOUS..

[@maxgreece1]

Nice eulogy. I too remember that fight - I was at university and we were all crowded round a tiny 14 inch TV. There were probably 20 of us in that small room squinting at the action on screen. Probably the most astonishing 3 rounds in history. My start with boxing was Ali-Frazier 1. Amazing when you get such a fight as an introduction.

Marvelous Marvin Hagler was the reason I became interested in boxing also, I was so amazed how he could transition between orthodox and southpaw in the middle of a combination so effortlessly, and his gazelle punch was so quick with so much power. Later in life I learned about his training regiment, how he trained in an old hotel and to this day I yell “WAR, WAR!!” Just as he did while running or jogging. RIP TO THE MARVELOUS ONE! Thank you for the memories and thank you Rummy for all the great boxing documentaries!

[@muder0989]

The Marvelous one was one of the greatest fighters who ever lived. That's how I will remember him and that's how the world should remember him. A true king of the ring 🙏 may he rest in peace

[@berceusexyz9544]

Thank you for this tribute. I was not even born when Marvelous Marvin Hagler was still fighting, but I discovered his fights watching his war with Thomas Hearns, since then I have seen some of his fights and interviews, I really enjoy the man and the boxer, he is an inspiration to me. Rest in Piece Marvelous Marvin Hagler, your legacy will stay in our heart forever.

[@zaxtt.p8241]

I was waiting for your tribute. Rest in peace Marvelous Marvin Hagler. A real warrior.

[@zanarothbloodfin8406]

Thank you for all the Marvelous entertainment. RIP Marvelous one.

[@Jim-ok9zi]

I’m also deeply saddened by this news. He also was my favourite boxer.

[@mathewmcdonald3657]

Your dad and my dad have much in common. My dad introduced me to Marvelous Marvin Hagler and boxing. Kids from this generation have no idea how great boxing was in the 80s and 90s.

[@ripwig6682]

Amazing. Very well put.

[@derekgoudie8934]

hes not down for the count friend......he is sparing in heaven with angels getting ready for the real battle........God is great and he makes GREAT PEOPLE.......RIP CHAMP.....

[@MalunoMcSketch]

Thank you Rummy. I've been waiting all week for you to do a tribute. Truly one of the greatest. I shed tears for the loss of this true champion omong champions. You couldn't have done a better job and I'm sure The Champ "Marvelous" Marvin Hagler would have been honored by your loving and true sentiment. I have to say though. Rummy. You are the True champion of your own dimension. The best of your kind. Thank you for your work as we all thank Marvelous on his 10 count to the stars. RIP "Marvelous" Marvin Hagler 1954-2021 A Champion Forever 🥊

[@efraincarrera8395]

I got started in boxing at 19, didn't know what to expect, I watched Hagler/Hearns right there I fell in love with boxing, and I needed someone with the right discipline to look up to, my trainer told me about Marvelous and the rest is history in my life with boxing. Because of Hagler, I found a sense of peace going into the 🔥 #RIPMarvelous

[@RaferAlstonAkaLAZIO]

Your favorite boxer's favorite boxer. RIP Champ.

[@lightzout7239]

[@elchavoguero]

This was such a touching story. Thanks so much for sharing. RIP to the Marvelous One

[@kinderic]

Back in 1988 I was going to school in Boston and worked as a concierge out of building that marvelous Marvin Hagler was living at. Every day people would come and go and few would say hello however he made sure to do so in the kindest of ways. RIP to a marvelous human being.

[@drjoehoe1]

Greatest boxing match I've ever scene in my life, Haggler vs Hearns. When I heard Haggler had passed It was as if I had lost a family member. R.I.P to the true Clubber Lang.

[@tonyb9735]

Might just be the best boxing match that *anybody* has ever seen.

[@frsantariga]

I agree it was a great fight.

[@boojiboy2275]

I felt the same Joe. :(

[@KentonJoseph]

No, after a couple good shots Hearns was a step behind. Hagler had control after the first minute. If Hearns can't box how he trained, he lost all through his career.

[@cocotimbo]

This is very nice of you, Rummy! Marvelous Marvin would appreciate. MMH the best MW ever! He was a pure middleweight. Never moved to a different division. His record, without those controversial decisions (robberies?) would be immaculate! What a warrior! Never knocked down, never knocked out, always on top shape, a complete athlete. RIP Marvelous 🙏!
