At six years and seven months, his reign as undisputed middleweight champion is the second-longest of the last century, behind only, whose reign included several years of inactivity during his service in. 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'.Hagler is an inductee of the 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 and the.

The International Boxing Research Organization rates Hagler as the 6th greatest middleweight of all time, while rates him the 12th greatest boxer of all time,; and the 4th best middleweight of all time. Many analysts and boxing writers consider Hagler to have one of the most durable in boxing history. Main article:On April 15, 1985, Hagler and met in what was billed as The Fight; later it would become known as '.' Round One: Three minutes of blistering violence. Within the first fifteen seconds, Hearns lands his best punch, a straight right, onto Hagler's chin. The champion steps back, then comes forward.

At this point, Hagler begins to walk through Tommy's power punches.Round Two: Hagler is cut on his head from an unintentional elbow or headbutt. Despite the blood, the champion continues to now push the fight forward. Hearns is fighting hurt as well, having suffered a broken right hand in the last minute of the first round. The pace continues as before, but now Hearns is backing up, trying to move around the ring. Hearns' trainer Manny Stewart would later reveal Hearns had a leg massage, much to his dismay, before the fight. Tommy's legs by the end of the round are weakening.Round Three: The pace slows until Referee Richard Steele calls a time out to have the ringside doctor examine the cut on Hagler's head.

The crowd is on its feet for the next ten seconds, before the doctor allows the fight to continue. Hagler charges the much taller Hearns, drilling in an overhand right behind Tommy's ear. Hearns' legs wobble, and Hagler is on him quickly. Tommy topples to the canvas, rising at the count of eight, but collapses into Referee Steele's arms. The fight is then halted.The fight lasted only eight minutes and one second, but it is rightly regarded as a classic. Commentator uttered the now-immortal line, 'It didn't go very far, but it was a beauty!'

The fight was named ' by.Hagler vs. Mugabi Next was Olympic silver medalist of, who was 25–0 with 25 and was ranked the number one contender by all three major bodies.

The fight took place on March 10, 1986 as Hagler had hurt his back and could not fight on the first date booked in 1985. Hagler stopped Mugabi in the 11th round of a brutal fight. Many ringside observers, including analyst Gil Clancy, noticed that Hagler was showing signs of advanced ring wear and age. He was much slower of hand and foot and seemed much easier to hit. He had also completely morphed his ring style from a slick, quick-fisted, boxer/puncher to a strictly flat-footed, stalking, slugger to compensate for his loss of speed and reflexes. Hagler was now said to be seriously considering retirement.

Hagler's promoter was quoted as saying he was expecting Hagler to retire in the face of being challenged by Sugar Ray Leonard.Hagler vs. It has been suggested that this section be out into another article titled. (September 2017)Hagler's next challenger was, who was returning to the ring after a three-year retirement (having fought just once in the previous five years.) During the pre-fight negotiations, in return for granting Hagler a larger share of the purse Leonard obtained several conditions which would be crucial to his strategy: a 22x22ft ring, 10 oz. Gloves and the fight was to be over 12—not 15—rounds. Leonard was 2 years younger, had half as many fights, and unbeknownst to Hagler, had engaged in several 'real' fights behind closed doors (i.e. Gloves, rounds, a referee, judges and no head gear) in order to shake off his ring rust.

The fight took place at in on April 6, 1987. Hagler was the betting favorite.Hagler, a natural, opened the fight boxing out of an orthodox stance. After the quick and slick Leonard won the first two rounds on all three scorecards, Hagler started the third round as a southpaw. Hagler did better, though Leonard's superior speed and boxing skill kept him in the fight. But by the fifth, Leonard, who was moving a lot, began to tire and Hagler started to get closer. As he tired Leonard began to clinch with more frequency (in total referee Richard Steele gave him over 30 warnings for holding, although never deducted a point). Hagler buckled Leonard's knees with a right uppercut near the end of the round, which finished with Leonard on the ropes.

Hagler continued to score effectively in round six. Leonard, having slowed down, was obliged to fight more and run less.In rounds seven and eight, Hagler's southpaw jab was landing solidly and Leonard's counter flurries were less frequent. Round nine was the most exciting round of the fight.

Hagler hurt Leonard with a left cross and pinned him in a corner. Leonard was in trouble, then furiously tried to fight his way out of the corner. The action see-sawed back and forth for the rest of the round, with each man having his moments. Round ten was tame by comparison, as the pace slowed after the furious action of the previous round. Clearly tiring, Leonard boxed well in the eleventh. Every time Hagler scored, Leonard came back with something flashier, if not as effective. In the final round, Hagler continued to chase Leonard.

He hit Leonard with a big left hand and backed him into a corner. Leonard responded with a flurry and danced away with Hagler in pursuit.

The fight ended with Hagler and Leonard exchanging along the ropes. Hagler began dancing in celebration of his performance while Leonard alternately collapsed to the canvas and raised both his arms in triumph. Leonard threw 629 punches and landed 306, while Hagler threw 792 and landed 291.Hagler later said that, as the fighters embraced in the ring after the fight, Leonard said to him, 'You beat me man.' Hagler said after the fight, 'He said I beat him and I was so happy.'

Leonard denied making the statement and claimed he only told Hagler, 'You're a great champion.' Cameras and microphones supported Hagler's version of events.Leonard was announced as winner by split decision, which remains hotly disputed to this day.Post-fight reaction Official ringside judge JoJo Guerra, whose 118–110 scorecard was derided in many quarters, commented that:Leonard outpunched Hagler, outsmarted him, outboxed him. He looked just great. Sugar Ray Leonard was making him miss a lot, and then him. Sugar Ray Leonard was beating him to the punch.

They should call him Marvelous Sugar Ray Leonard. Boxing is the art of self-defense, and Sugar Ray was in command at all times.

He was very fast and he was very clever. He made Marvin Hagler come to him. He dictated the fight.Judge Dave Moretti, who scored it 115–113 for Leonard:Obviously, Hagler was the aggressor, but he was not the effective aggressor. You can't chase and get hit and chase and get hit, and get credit for it. Besides, the hardest punching was by Leonard.Lou Filippo, who scored it 115–113 for Hagler and felt that Hagler's bodyshots and aggression earned him the nod, said:Hagler was doing all the work.

The referee, Richard Steele, warned Leonard at least once every round about holding. Leonard fought in spurts. Leonard would run in and grab and hold. He did what he had to do.

But I can't see a guy holding that much and getting points for it., commenting in the British Sunday Times and Sports Illustrated:What Ray Leonard pulled off in his split decision over Hagler was an epic illusion. He had said beforehand that the way to beat Hagler was to give him a distorted picture. But this shrewdest of fighters knew it was even more important to distort the picture for the judges. His plan was to 'steal' rounds with a few flashy and carefully timed flurries and to make the rest of each three-minute session as unproductive as possible for Hagler by circling briskly away from the latter's persistent pursuit. ^ tale of the tape prior to the fight.

Reggie Watts is a difficult act to pin down. Not because the comedian/musician/possible Fraggle isn’t talented, in fact he’s one of the most talented people I’ve witnessed in the last few years.What’s difficult about Reggie is trying to explain him to an unfamiliar friend. Is he a comedian? Is he a musician? Is he from this planet? The answer lies somewhere in the middle of all of the above.Watts is an entertainer who uses everything in his arsenal to put a smile on the faces of everyone present. Armed with a distinct look (think of an afro’d member of Parliament Funkadelic who didn’t get the memo, nor cares that Three Wolf Moon shirts and suspenders weren’t cool) and effects pedals.

Watts beatboxes, loops, squaks and jams on bits, characters and escalating improved tangents.Watts is a rare package that fits in everywhere because he doesn’t really fit in anywhere. His resume would make any performer at any stage in their career envious. First implanting onto the comedy world opening Conan O’Brien’s Illegally Prohibited tour, working on TV shows like Louie and the forthcoming Comedy Bang Bang, to even catching the attention of guitar god, Jack White. There’s not much Watts hasn’t tried and more importantly, succeeded at. Hell, I’ve yet to mention his brilliant 2010, song/video “Fuck Shit Stack.”A Live At Central Park isn’t your traditional stand-up comedy special. Rather it’s Watts delivering his signature beatbox/comedy show intercut with sketches as “Reginald” and his lady friend travel the park.

While watching the special, it becomes very clear just how Kaufman-esque Watts is – you aren’t 100% sure who the “real Reggie” is. Just when you think you have an inkling of such, or what the joke actually is, you realize you do not.Reggie’s act is not the type of stand-up that’s going to have you falling in the aisles in stitches.

It’s best when it generates a simple smile that washes over audiences, leaving them mesmerized and grinning at what they are witnessing. Most comedians fear long silences, but Watts seems comfortable in knowing they are on the ride with him and paying attention to everything he’s doing even if not erupting at every tag or impression. In fact, sometimes the shared awkwardness of a bit gets the biggest laughs.A Live At Central Park crescendos with “Reggiohead,” which Watts takes the opportunity to mock Thom Yorke and Radiohead’s song “Idioteque” in front of a crowd that is probably very fond of the target band. But as usual, Watts utilizes his talent, smirk, and attitude to make a smiling moment.So to bring us back to the original question, how would you describe Reggie Watts to a friend? You could tell them he’s a funny musician. You could tell them he’s a musical comedian.

Or you could tell them to just shut their mouths and experience Reggie Watts. Like the improv he serves up, he’s one of a kind.
