*********************************
Marvelous Marvin Hagler
(born
Marvin Nathaniel Hagler
; May 23, 1954)
[2]
is an American former
professional boxer
and film actor who competed in boxing from 1973 to 1987. He reigned as
undisputed
middleweight champion from 1980 to 1987,
[3]
making twelve successful defenses of that title, and holds the highest
knockout
percentage of all undisputed middleweight champions, at 78%, while also holding the
Third-longest unified championship reign in boxing history
at twelve consecutive defenses. At six years and seven months, his reign as undisputed middleweight champion is the second-longest of the last century, behind only
Tony Zale
, whose reign included several years of inactivity during his service in
World War II
. In 1982, annoyed that network announcers often did not refer to him by his nickname "Marvelous", Hagler legally changed his name to "Marvelous Marvin Hagler".
[4]
Hagler is an inductee of the
International Boxing Hall of Fame
and the World Boxing Hall of Fame. He was named Fighter of the Decade (1980s) by Boxing Illustrated magazine, and twice named Fighter of the Year by
The Ring magazine
and the
Boxing Writers Association of America
. In 2001 and 2004, The Ring named him the fourth greatest middleweight of all time
[5]
and in 2002 named him the 17th greatest fighter of the past 80 years.
[6]
The International Boxing Research Organization rates Hagler as the 6th greatest middleweight of all time,
[7]
while
BoxRec
rates him the 29th greatest boxer of all time,
pound for pound
.
[8]
Many analysts and boxing writers consider Hagler to have one of the most durable
chins
in boxing history, having been knocked down only once during the entire professional career, and the scored knockdown is still being disputed.
