A boxing legend died unexpectedly.  Report I saw said no cause of death had been released, but a close friend said that Marvin was placed in ICU in the hospital shortly after getting a Covid vaccine shot.

There are some who do not fear death... for they are more afraid of not really living

I remember watching the first fight Hagler vs Leonard.... Leonard won purely by scoring points but Hagler destroyed him in the process.

His fight vs the Motor City Cobra was really good!

Sugar Ray is a true hero in boxing, but there is no greater than Marvelous Marvin... his legend is eternal

👍. 

Hagler fought during a time where boxing world was rich with really good boxers (70’s and 80’s). The first round against Tommy Hearns is a classic.

The weakness of Hearn's chin is a true testament to how great a boxer he was.
