i think Sugar Ray Robinson and Carlos Monzon might have something to say about the middleweight GOAT. From The Ring, which ranked both of them ahead of Hagler:
SUGAR RAY ROBINSON (1951, 1951-52, 1955-57, 1957, 1958-60) The original “Sugar Man’s” five-way rivalry with Jake LaMotta, Gene Fullmer, Carmen Basilio and Bobo Olson rubberstamped an unmatched legacy at 160 pounds. What’s more astonishing is that the five-time middleweight champion peaked at welterweight. For many, the perfect fighter. CARLOS MONZON (1970-77) The legendary Argentine pressure-puncher is a popular choice for being the greatest middleweight of all time. He won the championship with a 12th-round stoppage of the superb Nino Benvenuti and made 14 successful defenses, nine of which came by knockout. I also wonder about B-Hop; he excelled at messing up bulls like Hagler. Again, from The Ring, which ranked him #4 after Hagler: BERNARD HOPKINS (2001-05) “The Executioner” was 36 years old when he schooled Felix Trinidad to secure superstar status. Smart, freakishly dedicated and a golden era throwback, this old-school Philadelphia general posted an incredible 19 successful defenses of his IBF title (among others) – a division record. And since we need some cards:
