That cut on Hagler was from an elbow

[@gustav1235]

'Marvellous' what a name! And Hearns staredown at the referee's instructions is ice cold. Love these fellas and they put up a hell of a fight.

The Best 3 rounds of the Century...RIP Marvin Hagler🥊🥊

[@SloppyBalboa]

I recently found my way back to a childhood passion, boxing. And to see this fight for the first time where I'm at in life is life changing. What two legendary warriors , absolute grit and tenacity by both Men. An absolute battle for the ages, they left it all in that ring . A truly incredible fight, just moved by the mentality of both fighters , killer instinct. God bless , wow

[@rayjones8853]

Incredible. Never gets old..

[@EM-nu3qx]

Best round of action ever. Classic fight

[@uberboomer8670]

That 1st round is just poetry, every fight should be legally required to start like that

[@Kenny-Alpha]

I agree

[@LIONTAMER3D]

don't you just hate it when you're trying to watch a boxing match & a fight breaks out?

[@bringinfunny1]

There's just no way humanly possible that you can sustain that type of pace for a long period of time. The fact they did it for more than two rounds is astounding to me. It's as if they had a warriors agreement that they would fight to the last breath. Two of the best!!!! Hard to deny that.

[@conservativemike3768]

Tommy’s physique was remarkable, but more vulnerable to body attack in comparison to Hagler’s compact and durable frame.

[@thebadmanrisesagain]

Hearns said he broke his right hand in Rd. 1. Still an amazing fight.

[@steveo3831]

I respectfully disagree. In that era, yes. But not now. It was legendary. And we don’t know anything about PED’s

Greatest era for boxing - hall of fame fighters in most divisions and some all time fights

[@wilfredlenon824]

There's a long list of great boxers in the history of the sport..... but there's only few in the list that fits to the word GREATEST WARRIOR of the ring .... And Marvelous Marvin Hagler is one of them.... rest in peace champ.

[@darrenwayne8263]

That was an incredible three rounds at an extremely high level. When the best fought the best more regularly than today. Legends, Hearns and Hagler.

[@CoJoPa2010]

Y'know how great this fight is? Even when I know the outcome, I'm still reacting as if I don't. Absolute classic!

[@s.o.g.7259]

This is exciting to watch 37 years after it happened, but I wish I could have experienced it then. Imagine all the build up and anticipation for this fight as a fan back then. Then to get those legendary rounds between these legendary fighters. I would’ve been on my feet the entire time. Wether it was in person or in my living room. RIP Hagler.

[@dondajulah4168]

I remember watching this as a teenager. It was just as you imagined.

[@matrox]

@@dondajulah4168 I more than likely saw it or replayed on Wide World of Sports. I watched all the fights then when fighting had greats in all weight classes.

[@Serpentis666]

I can’t believe this was really that long ago… these were some of the best days of boxing…

[@wanderer1955]

Definitely. As exciting as the Tyson fights were, they were all pretty "one way" traffic. There wasn't much coming back from his opponents. With Hagler, Hearns, Ray Leonard, and Duran, a lot of the time you just never knew who was going to win. Like Superman v The Incredible Hulk. For me these were far better fights than the Tyson fights. Just saying like.

[@Aaron-i6t]

Thanks for the Memories

[@AcmeMonkeyCompany]

I love how Hearns is smiling before the final knockdown like "Alright, Marvin. You got me"
