25 years ago last week, Marvelous Marvin Hagler savagely defeated Thomas “The Hitman” Hearns by a third round TKO at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas.
When the bout was officially signed, Hagler (62-3-2, 52 KOs) and Hearns (48-5-1, 48 KOs) were widely regarded as two of the preeminent boxers in the entire sport.
