The boxing world was stunned this past weekend by the news of Marvin Hagler’s passing.
The middleweight legend’s wife, Kay G. Hagler, made the announced on her husband’s Facebook fan page, saying only that the Hall of Famer had passed away suddenly.
Hagler was the undisputed 160-pound champ between 1980 and 1987, when Sugar Ray Leonard pulled off a tremendous upset to take the title.
His third-round knockout of Thomas Hearns in 1985 was his signature performance and the frenetic fight is considered one of the greatest of all time.
Hagler was inducted into the International Boxing Hall Fame in 1993.
