That is Hagler''s legacy as MW. Against Hearn's it was Tommy who lost that fight, Hagler did not win it, Tommy fought foolish.
you beat the champ by running from him, ...???
if sugar ray was the champ and ran like he did,
and they gave the belts to haggler and then you said
ray should have won....
then you would have more of a arguement then what they did,
ray is possably the best minuplator who ever boxed, why haggler agreed to some of the things he agreed too, the size of the ring, # of rounds ..ect
i will never know,
but my point is, to be the champ you have to beat the champ
and in no way, shape or form did ray beat the champ that night,
alot like like the mayweather castillo fight, same principal,
castillo was the champ, mayweather the challenger,
castillo was the agressor, pushed the action, came foward,
mayweather got the decision in the first fight in which mayweather should have lost
but as for my favorite the haggler fight the Mugabi fight was mine, looked like mugabi might pull it off but haggler just kept breakin him down, a classic i still watch that fight 5 or 6 times a year
