RE: who would win, La Motta .v.  Hagler

Tough one to call. La Motta could soak up the punches as well as being a tactical boxer and was only dropped once in over 100 fights. He was also a bit heavier than Hagler. On the other hand, Hagler was a hard hitter and able to trades pound for pound blow with anyone. I'd probably go La Motta by a hair's breadth.

If i really had to call this fight, i think i would just favour 'Raging Bull'.

Tough call. Going by records, I'd go LaMotta decision

I would like to think that La Motta could do it but my heart is telling me that Hagler would overcome and come out with a desicion

I gotta go with LaMotta too. Hagler was amazing, but beatable. LaMotta would have won a decision, but it would have been a bloody war leaving both fighters a god awful mess. They would have both soon retired as great friends and spent the rest of their lives feeding each other baby food at a LifeCare center in South Florida.

LaMotta was not even dropped by Sugar Ray Robinson. LaMotta would not even be dropped by Mike Tyson. I think that LaMotta would win this fight, by KO in the middle rounds.
